Single Hardy CHRYSANTHEMUMS
"SHASTA" and •'MOON-PENNY" DAISIES
The large-flowering single white hardy Daisy — Chr ysantliemum leztcantliemum maximum — has
long been considered one of our finest hardy perennials for permanent garden decoration.
The following new types are great improvements:
Princess Henry. This "Moon- Penny Daisy" forms a bushy, compact plant 18 inches
high, producing in abundance, during late summer and fall, magnificent, large white
flowers, 3 to 4 inches across. They are of splendid substance and, having long stems,
are highly prized for cutting, lasting in water fully a week. It flowers the first season
from spring-sown seed, and comes tip every summer in the same beauty for many
years Pkt . 10c.
Shasta Daisy. This great white Californian Daisy — a creation of Mr. Luther Bur-
bank — -produces, when well grown, magnificent pure white flowers 4 inches or
more across, on stems 1J4 to 2 feet in length. The plants, 2 to 2Vi feet in
height, are hardy, and flower in profusion Pkt. ISc.
Semi-double Shasta Daisy. A variety of the above, producing large semi-
double, pure white flowers, which last long in perfection. (See cut.). Pkt. 25c.
Little Gem. A beautiful new dwarf variety, only 15 to 18 inches high, of even,
bushy growth; blooming very early, and very freely — making a splendid
effect — large, pure white flowers on long stems. Splendid for herbaceous
borders and for cut flowers Pkt. 25c.

magnificent new varieties were raised from hybridized seed,
similar to that we are now offering. .See cut.)

the Chinese or incurved — 'the Japanese long twisted-petalled
kinds, the ostrich-plumed or feathered-petalled, Delaux's
