LITTLE SILVER, NEW JERSEY 



Hardy Perennials 9 



(R) New Dwarf Hybrid Border Asters (R) 



These Asters, which we offered for the first time last Spring, have aroused unmingled admir- 

 ation among our patrons. They seldom exceed 1 foot in height, and are literally covered, in Sep- 

 tember, with their attractive flowers. Good for edging, even better for grouping in front of borders, 

 and best of all for the rock garden.
