Imported Collections of Improved Pxony-flowered Perfection Asters, 6 separate colors, 
Henderson’s Jubilee Asters. 
These magnificent Asters bear large double flowers, averaging 5 inches 
in diameter, of most symmetrical form and of splendid substance. The 
plants are sturdy and compact, about 2 feet high. Individual plants carry 
from 25 to 40 of the immense flowers, open at one time, completely covering 
the upper half of the plant with bloom. The colors are beautiful, clear and 
rich. Their blooming season is unusually long, the maturing flowers are 
followed by developing buds in uninterrupted succession for weeks. Jubilee 
Asters are not early, following Victoria and Perfection classes, and remain 
in bloom until the late-branching sorts begin to open. (See cut.)

“My bed of Jubilee Asters were the finest I ever saw; in spite ofthe dry

New Miniature rseca Asters. 
This new typeforms compact, globular bushes 8 to 10 inches high by 8 
to 10 inches in diameter; they branch densely, are well furnished with small 
deep green foliage, and resemble, before flowering, little mounds of well- 
kept box, thus rendering them of exceptional value for garden edgings, 
even before blooming; but when in flower the effect is truly beautiful; then 
the plants are literally smothered with charming small double flowers 1 to 
1% inches across; 100 to 200 flowers borne on a single plant are not unu- 
sual. They are especially effective for bedding out in masses, as they remain 
in bloom for a long period. When grown in pots they make pretty speci- 
mens. (Seecut.)
