Dreer's "Peerless Pink" Aster. 



This grand Aster may be briefly described as a glorified late 

 branching shell-pink or Mary Semple. It has the same strong, 

 sturdy habit of growth; comes into bloom a little earlier, bears 

 freely almost globular flowers rarely under 4 inches across and 

 frequently over 5 inches. The color is rich shell-pink, similar in 

 shade but more decided than the late branching. The centre petals 

 are prettily incurved, while the wide outer petals reflex, making a 

 most artistic and finely finished flower, and stands cut longer than 

 any other. 50 cts. per trade pkt.; $2.50 per oz.
