GIANT OF CALIFORNIA ASTERS 



Characterized by the well known Crego or 

 Ostrich Feather type of flower, combined with 

 the Beauty Aster's long, non-lateral stems and 

 sturdy habit of growth, the California Giant 

 type heads the list of the finer type Asters, not 

 only for florists' use, but also for private gar- 

 dens where quality is appreciated. The large 

 flowers are packed with broad, graceful pet- 

 als, borne on stems over two feet long. The 

 plants grow from two and a half to three feet, 

 starting to flower in late August.

 in form to the Giants of California, but earlier and

 of the petals. The color is a pure shell-pink. Stems are 

 long and strong, and no disbudding is necessary due 

 to the non-lateral habit. 2^/2 to 3 ft. tall. Vs oz., 50c;

This fascinating new Aster type, 

 rightly called the most beautiful in the 

 world, is fast becoming the most pop- 

 ular Aster. The flowers, 4-5 inches 

 across, are composed of a single row 

 of loosely placed outer petals which 

 contrast with the unique yellow quill- 

 like center disc. Stems are long and 

 heavy, on plants from 2 to 3 feet in 

 height.
