The Florists' Review 



73 



CHOICE BEDDING PLANTS 



lURPLUS, BETTER AND CHEAPER THAN EVER 



AFTER DECORATION DAY all florists and growers have empty benches. What shall we 

 ) with them? Have them empty? Sure not; no prosperous florist would think of such a thing. Don't 

 t your money rust in the bank; nothing else in the world will pay you better than to invest 



IN GRO:^IlN[G KSTERS 



the right kind, such as Godfrey Aschmann grows, the Genuine Creco Altera. These bear an abundance of large trusses 

 big flowers, suitable to cut and use in bouquets, vases, table decorations, funeral designs; these asters are also excellent 

 r pot culture. We have them in separate colors. Pink, White, Shell-pink, Cardinal-blue, Lavender. We are well proTided 

 id can meet the rush. 50,000 in 2^-inch pots, large, strong plants, ready for immediate shipment, $3.00 per 100; $25.00 

 r 1000. Take the hint and consider what a profit you can make growing these Crego Asters. In the latter part of July 

 id August your Asters are ripe to cut. Then what? Empty benches again! Then we can raise another crop— replace the 

 sters with stock for fall and Christmas sales, such as Nephrolepis of all kinds, Poinsettias, Cyclamen, Begonia Gloire de 

 trraine and other winter-blooming Begonias, Rubbers, Solanums, Chinese and Obconica Primroses, etc. This is what we call 

 istling— utilizing your bench room to best advantage. If you want to be successful as a grower, you must be wide-awake 

 id utilize to best advantage every part of your bench room at all times; every square foot of your bench space must bring 

 u from $2.00 to $3.00 per year.
