SEMPLE'S BRANCHING ASTERS o 



These splendid Asters give immense satisfaction. Our customers speak of them in the very highest terms, and say they cannot 

 be recommended too highly. The plants grow about 2 feet high, and are of sturdy, branching habit. They are enormous bloom- 

 ers and in their season are covered all over with splendid, large, perfectly double flowers of exquisite 

 beauty. The seed should be sown in boxes or a seed-bed, and transplanted, after weather is settled, 

 where they are to remain; set about 2 feet apart, and keep the ground mellow and well cultivated, 

 "and they will do the rest."

Conabd & Jones Company, 



Gentlemen: — Last spring I received a package of your Semple's Branching Aster seed. I think every seed grew 

 to maturity and now I have a bed of exquisite flowers. They bloom so freely that I have sent dozens of them into the 

 homes of my friends, and still have Asters profusely. Sincerely — Mrs. L. H. W., Winfield, Kansas. 



204 C. & J. FINEST MIXED ASTERS o 



This is a fine mixture of the best and most beautiful Asters for general planting. It is made by 

 ourselves and includes a great variety of the best kinds and choicest colors. They are no 

 trouble to grow and can be planted in masses by sowing broadcast, 

 but it is best to start the seeds early, in a hotbed or in the house, 

 and transplant outside about May 10 in this latitude. This splendid 

 mixture has received high praise from our customers and, knowing 

 the varieties included, we recommend it strongly. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 l /ioz. 4* cts., oz. $1.50. 



The Asters I got of you were superb. I had a big bed of them, crimson in the 

 center, then white, then shell-pink and the outside row purple. It was a show bed 

 — they looked more like chrysanthemums than Asters. — Mrs.W.T. Z.,Malvem.Pa.
