GIANT OF CALIFORNIA ASTERS 



Characterized by the well known Crego or Os- 

 trich 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 gardens where 

 quality is appreciated. The large flowers are 

 packed with broad, graceful petals, borne on 

 stems over two feet long. The plants grow from 

 two and a half to three feet, starting to flower in 

 late August.

ASTER LILLIPUT FLOWERED 



Comparing in size with the Lilliput Zinnias, 

 these baby flowered asters fill a very definite place 

 in the border or cutflower garden. The flowers are 

 tiny and buttonlike in form, coming in profuse 

 clusters on medium length stems, lending them- 

 selves very gracefully to flower arrangement or 

 for a colorful border in the garden. The colors 

 are bright and clear cut, some varieties having a 

 deeper zone at the center. Pkt., 15c. 



SENSATION

 garnet, glistening like live coal in the sunlight. 

 The flowers are very large, measuring 3% inches 

 across, and are borne freelv on long, stiff stems.
