Improved Victoria. 



Of the general beauty of these flowers it is unnecessary to speak ; the immense world-wide demand for them shows their 

 adaptability for any climate; and coming into bloom, as they do, when most other flowers are fading away, enhances their value. 

 The ground for the cultivation of Asters cannot be too richly prepared, and the plants should never be allowed to receive a check, 

 but should continue to grow on uninterruptedly to produce fine flowers. Half-hardy annuals.
