The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



67 



According to the late season in Califor- 

 nia, 1912 Winter Sweet Pea Crop 

 will be late. To avoid late delivery, I 

 will send all early orders directly from 

 my ranch in Lompoc, Cal. These will 

 reach my farthest customers not later 

 than August 10th, saving over 4 weeks' 

 time. We will have all the leading 

 colors and many novelties. Order now. 

 New complete list will be ready in May. 



Now is the time to sow Late Sweet 

 Peas. We have on hand the best 

 Spencer and Unwin types, and almost all 

 other florists' flower seeds, like Asters, 

 Stocks, Mignonette, etc. 



Send for list.

Various Notes. 



Bandolph & McClements were one of 

 several east end firms caught last week 

 by a swindler who used the old request 

 to "send the boy with change for 

 $10." In each of the places which he 

 visited the man gave a small order to 

 be delivered to a fictitious address. * * Get 

 it out there by about 3 o 'clock and give 

 the boy who brings it change for $10," 

 he said. In each case the boy who car- 

 ried the package was met by the man 

 some distance from the address given. 

 "Is that package for Mr. Andrews?" 

 he asked. "Yes, sir," said the boy. 

 "Well, I'll take it to the house," and 

 he handed the lad a worthless check for 



The Crego Aster 



**THE BEST IN THE MARKET'' 



If it is your intention to realize the highest possible cash returns from your 

 Aster crop next summer, you will want the best seed your money can buy. 

 The CREGO ASTER seed I can furnish you is of the very best quality, not 

 only because it is grown miles from any other field of Asters, but because, in 

 addition to doing everything possible to keep the strain free from mixture, the 

 most painstaking care wap given the crop from seedbed to the ripened seed. 



Too much importance cannot be given to the matter of keeping Asters, 

 grown from seed, at as great a distance as possible from all other kinds of 

 Asters. Colors will mix a little under the very best conditions, as insects can- 

 not be kept out of the field ; but the seed grower who plants several varieties 

 in the same field is certain to bring about the ruination of all. 



The CREGO ASTER has been given a fair trial in nearly every part of the 

 United States and Canada, also in Europe, and has proved itself to be exactly 

 what every florist needs— an Aster which finds instant favor with his custo- 

 mers, for which they are willing to pay the highest price and which gives him 

 the highest return for his time and labor. It costs the grower no more to pro- 

 duce flowers of that grade than to grow the common run of Asters, which sell 

 for but little more than enough to pay express charges. I am offering the 

 CREGO ASTER in four colors, viz. : shell-pink, pure white, rose-pink and 

 violet blue, all fully up to Crego grade, with immense, fluffy blossoms four to 

 six inches in diameter and of splendid color. 



BUY YOUR SEED DIRECT 

 FROM THE ORIGINATOR 



The price of the CREGO ASTER seed is as follows: I4 oz., $1.00; ^ oz.,

 finest Asters will be sent to each purchaser of ^4 oz. or more, if requested.
