OstTRICH FEATHER ASTER 
Dreer’s Superb Late-branching 
Asters 
This grand strain is of American origin, and is especially 
adapted to our climatic conditions. 
The plants form strong, branching bushes 2 to 2} feet high, 
bearing on long, strong stems flowers which, under ordinary 
cultivation, average 5 inches across. They are usually at their 
best during September, and, all things considered, are the most 
valuable of all Asters, either for cutting or for bedding, and if 
only one kind of Aster is grown this is the type which will likely 
give the best results.
