Early Branching or Royal Asters 
A recently developed type that might briefly be described as 
an early flowering form of our Superb Late Branching variety, 
having all the good qualities of the latter, but coming into bloom 
in July or early August, and lasting in perfect condition for a long 
time. The habit of the plants and their free-flowering make them 
very desirable for beds or borders, while their long-stemmed 
flowers are ideal for cutting. The form of the flower is well shown 
in the illustration. We offer six beautiful and distinct colors.
