Dreer's Crimson Giant Aster 



1305 This variety has all the good qualities of our Su- 

 perb Late Branching type, but is of upright growth, 

 with extra large, densely double flowers, few under 

 5 inches across, on stems 15 to 18 inches long, in 

 color a very rich blood crimson, full of fire, mak- 

 ing a brilliant bed or border. 15 cts. per pkt. ; 2

Early "Wonder Asters 



This is the best extra early Aster, flow- 

 ering in early July from seeds sown in the open 

 ground at the end of April, and if sown in 

 March can be had in bloom before the close of 

 June. The flowers are of good size, quite 

 double, and are borne on good, long, stiff stems, 

 which, added to their extremely early flowering, 

 makes them of great value for cutting.

KING ASTERS 



The " King" Aster formsa distinct class or type, and have many sterling 

 qualities to recommend them to lovers of fine Asters. They are of strong, 

 sturdy habit, growing fully 18 inches high, and bear from August to October 

 ■very large double blossoms, the petals of which are more or less quilled, 

 forming a very attractive flower. That we think highly of this type is evi- 

 denced by the fact that we include Rose King and Violet King in our collec- 

 tion of Six Famous American Asters, which we offer among our specialties
