 varieties of Asters that are in popular favor. We have a 

 national reputation for the excellence of our Asters, and it 

 is one of our best sellers. We know of no other flower so 

 easilv raised from seed, which combines so much beauty 

 with grace and usefulness, and is more satisfactory to raise.: 

 Asters make a brilliant effect when grown in masses, and 

 furnish throughout the season a constant supply of cut flowers. 1

 for table decoration, and particularly appreciated as cut 

 flowers, coming into bloom a little earlier than Crego Asters.
