Chrysanthemums 
These new Chrysanthemums, which we offered for the first time last year, have more than proven themselves 
as being very resistant to stunt, mildew and leaf drop. Besides taking the extreme winter cold in the garden, they 
took the worst drought in years without any watering this past summer. Our hats off to Dr. Emsweller’s Depart- 
ment. 
For the best display in the Fall follow a few simple directions as follows. Unpack at once when you receive 
them, and water moss around roots thoroughly. Nip the terminal bud and plant in good but not a very rich soil. 
Fertilize once only. Keep soil well weeded and aerated all summer. Nip the terminal buds on every branch every 
two to three weeks until July 15th. Never after that. In this way you will end up with a nice stocky compact plant 
full of flowers. If you do not nip the ends of the branches, you are going to have a long ugly plant that lies down 
on the ground. 
Established well rooted plants shipped; once transplanf ed in small pots.

Hemerocallis Or Daylilies 
We have a large stock of Daylilies, which we hybridized before World War II and all have bloomed. Many are as 
good as the present day named Hybrids selling for .75, 1.00, and 1.50 each. These plants are unnamed and unlabeled, 
so we offer them to you in the following mixed collections at a very low price for what you are receiving in return
