AMERICAN ASTERS 



Continued. 

 CREGO'S GIANT ^VHITE.

 have, we believe, brought this beautiful Aster to 

 a state of perfection hitherto unknown in this 

 type, of free, sturdy growth, attaining a height of 

 over 2 feet, well branched, with long, strong stems 

 and artistic, fluffy, graceful flowers, rarely less than 4 

 inches across and frequently over 5 inches, as fine 

 as any chrysanthemum, and when cut keep longer 

 in good condition than any Aster of this type; in 

 bloom from mid- August on through September; 

 in color a pure, glistening white. (See illustra- 

 tion on this page. ) 15 cts. per pkt. ; 2 pkts. for 

 25 cts

 of 18 inches, and produces during August in the 

 greatest profusion perfect globe-shaped double 

 flowers, which are of a delicate pink tint. 15 cts. 

 per pkt. ; 2 pkts. for 25 cts. 



PURITY. 



1395 This variety is identical in every way to Daybreak, 

 being of the same symmetrical growth, height and free- 

 flowering qualities; the flowers, however, instead of 

 being pink, are pure glistening white. 15 cts. per pkt.; 

 2 pkts. for 25 cts.
