P#ony PERFECTION ASTER. 
OSTRICH FEATHER. 
This magnificent Aster may be briefly described as being the 
finest of the Comet type yet introduced, differing in the candela- 
bra form of growth and greater freedom of bloom, but its greatest 
merit is in the flowers, which are of immense size; made up of 
much longer, more loosely formed petals, equalling the best 
Japanese Chrysanthemums. Blooms in August. When used for 
cutting, the flowers should be picked when about half expanded 
and allowed to develop in water in a cool room. (See cut. )
