THE BEST BEDDING ASTER EVER INTRODUCED—tThe coloring of this 
Aster is entirely distinct from any other Aster on the market today. This variety 
is particularly adapted for bedding, owing to its free blooming qualities and brilliant 
coloring. When massed in a bed, its deep vivid cardinal color is as striking as the 
brilliant scarlet Salvia. Begins blooming the first to middle of August, retaining its 
brilliant coloring and full, well-developed flowers until late in the fall. Pkt., 150 
seeds, 8 cts. EARLY SNOWDRIFT. 
IS CERTAINLY THE EARLIEST ASTER IN CULTIVATION—The leaves are 
harrow and sparse, and the branches spring from close to the ground. The entire 
energy of the plant seems given to the production of twelve to twenty long, slender, 
upright stems, crowned with immense feathery flowers. The long, recurved petals 
give the flowers an exceedingly graceful effect, heightened in many cases by the 
ragged, irregular character of the petals in the center of the flower. The flowers all 
come perfectly double. Pkt., 150 seeds, 8 cts. 
ROYAL PURPLE. 
‘ A new strain of Late Branching Aster, growing about fifteen inches high. Its 
abit of growth is entirely distinct, the stems growing directly from the ground, and 
not on side shoots from the main stem like other varieties. Nine out of twelve 
flowers are sufficiently large for cutting, either for house decoration or florists’ use. 
a medium early bloomer, continuing in flower until late in the fall. The flowers are 
arge and full to the center; petals fine and somewhat incurved; color bright purple.
