EXTRA EARLY HOHEJfZOLLERN, 



In this class of Aster we have a strain of exceptional 

 merit. They are extra early, coming in ahead of the well- 

 known Queen of the Market, and at least 2 or 3 weeks in ad- 

 vance of the ordinary Asters. Theh flowers are similar in 

 form and size to a good Comet Aster; very durable and do 

 not show their centers so readily as the Comet sorts do; 

 the stems are stout and long, making them excellent for 

 cut flower work. This is without doubt the Aster for early 

 cutting.

SUNLIGHT. 

 Heretofore Asters of only a creamy color have been offered 

 as yellow. This, however, is a clear sulphur yellow. The 

 flowers, which are borne freely on long, stiff stems, are of fine 



form, and measure from 3 to 4 inches in diameter 10 



FANCY, CANARY YELLOW. 

 This' grand Aster produces flowers of the size of the well- 

 known Giant Comet type. The flowers are very large, often 4 

 to 5 inches in diameter, the outside petals being finely curled, 

 while the inside petals look like tubes of deep yellow, making 

 effective flower of a canary yellow color 10
