THE FINEST ASTERS 



The Asters are among the most beautiful and popular flowers grown from seeds ; they are easy to grow 

 and bloom abundantly during July, August and September. The flowers are large, full and double and 

 borne on fine branching plants one to two feet high. Splendid for making bouquets and the same flowers 

 will last for two weeks or more if you nip off the ends of the stems and give them fresh water each day. 

 They come in many rich and beautiful colors, deep crimson, ,pure white, blue, rose, pink, etc., and are the 

 most brilliant and showy flowers of their season. We offer best quality seed of the following choice 

 varieties, which are sure to make a grand display of splendid flowers and should be planted liberally. 



NEW MIKADO PINK 



A novelty of sterling worth and 

 undoubtedly the finest Aster intro- 

 duced in recent years. The color is 

 especially pleasing. The petals are 

 narrow, very long and gracefully 

 reflexed with the fluffiest center 

 imaginable. Plants are unusually 

 vigorous often making a dozen long 

 graceful stems, each crowned with 

 flowers four and one-half to six inches 

 in diameter. The flower photo- 

 graphed was six and one-half inches 

 across. As a mid-season variety we 

 believe that Mikado Pink is without 

 a rival. Price per pkt., 25c. 



Japanese or Tassel Asters 



Flowers frequently measure five to 

 six inches across, and are remark- 

 able for the curious, curled and 

 twisted form of the petals. "We offer
