Here is how it’s done. When the plants are growing vigorously, remove all but four 
or six of the strongest stems: this is usually done in late August. Next permit the 
remaining stems to grow and produce flower buds, but when the flower buds are 
about one-half to three-fourths inch in diameter. remove all but one, permit the 
nicest looking bud to remain on the stem. Vothing more needs to be done but watch 
it develop into a huge flower. 
Holiday Each $1.00, Three $2.70, Doz. $8.75 
Big bright golden bronze flowers with high centers of pure bronze on 2-foot 
stems. It is a free blooming variety and makes a beautiful show in the fall 
garden. Holiday is one of the favorites and hard to beat. Starts blooming about 
the 20th of September. 
Lee Powell Each $1.00, Three $2.70, Doz. $8.75 
Big impressive flowers of bright Chinese yellow shading to coppery orange- 
yellow at the center. This was considered to be the best Mum introduced in 
1952. Starts blooming about the second week of September. Stems are rigid 
and about 21 feet tall. We feel this is an excellent Mum, one of the best. 
Ruby Each $1.00, Three $2.70, Doz. $8.75 
A free blooming variety with long stems which lend themselves well to cut- 
ting. The ruby-red flowers are distinct and brilliant. We consider this also one 
of the fine English introductions of recent date. Particularly noted is the great 
profusion of flowers and their brilliant coloring. One of the best. 
Vanguard Each $1.00, Three $2.70, Doz. $8.75 
Huge 4-inch blooms on 21/-foot stems make this a bold plant. Its color is out- 
standing. The big blooms are a golden yellow with slight russet tinting. This 
new variety we feel will be hard to beat. The flowers are substantial and have 
an excellent constitution. One of the fine newcomers.
