 form, it also has the advantage of being an ex:ellent keeper and one of the best 

 sellers t hat we have t" offer. We take great pleasure in recommending this 

 variety to anyone for » ither commercial or private growing, as it is superior to 

 any other White Aster. Very truly yours,.

BALL'S WHITE 



ASTER 



The seed of this splendid Giant Aster of the Late 

 Branching type — the product of twelve years' selection to 

 develop a perfectly double flower, of flawless color — is 

 offered in 1921 for the first time. 



la the Fall of 1908 a plant was fouud among Late Branching 

 White Asters on which the flowers were solidly double, so much so 

 that, from eight to ten flowers, only fifty seedlings were grown the 

 following year. 



It has been grown and the seed carefully selected every season 

 since. In 1918, three-quarters of an acre netted $2,820. An 

 exceptionally good market helped, but this variety has always sold 

 for 00% more than ordinary White Asters. 



The flowering season comes between the early and late, when the 

 market usually is best. It grows to a medium height with full, dis- 

 tinctively centered blossoms, ideally formed for long distance shipping.
