Maule's Asters 



Qiant Astermum 



These Asters are extfemely popular with many gardeners. The 

 blooms are not only extremely large but tliey are heavy, well 

 rounded, and supported by fine long and strong stems. The name 

 Astermum refers to the similarity of the elegantly formed blooms 

 to those of a choice Japanese Chrysanthemum. The individual 

 petals of .Astermums are long, narrow, and artistically curled and 

 twisted, which gives the blooms particular charm and grace. Giant 

 .\stermum Asters bloom during midseason and form strong grow- 

 ing, well Ijranched plants 2 to 2)3 ft. tall. The branches start from 

 the base, each ending in a large flower on a long stem which gives 

 them their value for cutting. The individual blooms measure 4 in. 

 across, are of splendid form, and hold their color nicely.
