ASTERS: 
Our Asters are grown 
for us by specialists, from 
the finest strains in the 
world, and are unri- 
valled. 
The Queen of the 
Market varieties are 
valuable for early cut 
flowers, coming in July; 
the Comet and Ostrich 
Feather sorts are charm- 
ing for their delicately 
curled petals; American 
branching kinds have shaggy 
owers on long stems resembling 
Japanese Chrysanthemums; while 
‘Vruffaut’s Pzeony-Flowered and Im- 
proved Victoria are undoubtedly the 
best types of old-fashioned French and 
German Asters.

Vick’s Branching. A free-growing Aster 
of robust, erect habit; producing large, 
feathery blossoms, resembling Japanese
