est varieties offered, and embracing Comets, Semple’s New Branching, Victoria, 
Chrysanthemum Flowered and Peony

lilac, in size the peer of the grandest

Extra Early Express Comet.

large, in fact we consider them the big- | 
gest early aster we know of, the flowers 
being at least four inches across, double 
to the centre, of graceful Comet type, 
with long stems. Plant sturdy and
