NOTE 
All flower varieties listed 
are annuals unless labeled 
otherwise. They bloom and 
die in one season. Peren- 
nials, which are hardy, per- 
manent flowers that bloom 
for years, are marked (per- 
ennial) wherever they ap- 
pear. Those marked bien- 
nial do not bloom until the 
second year from seed, 
after which they die. 
With its many and varied forms, its wide range of color, and its real 
beauty, the aster is deservedly one of the most popular flowers we have. 
By planting early, midseason and late varieties you may have asters from 
June to frost. W. R. means Wilt Resistant—resistant to the destructive 
wilt disease. We offer all that have been bred so far, and will add more as 
they are developed. Asters bloom from three to five months after seed is 
sown, varying with the variety and the climate. By starting the seed in- 
doors 6 weeks before outdoor planting time, earlier blooms may be had. 
Give your asters rich, well-drained soil, plenty of moisture and sunshine, 
and they will repay you. The location of the aster bed should be changed 
every year for best results.
