 and frequently over 5 inches. The color is rich shell 

 pink. The center petals are prettily incurved while

 finely finished flower. Tr. pkt. 30c; oz. $1.50. 



Super-Giant Aster, Los Angeles

 ing petals giving a feathery effect that goes well with 

 the pure shell pink of the blooms. Of magnificent tall 

 growth. Tr. pkt. 40c; oz. $2.50. 



Super Giant Aster, El Monte 



A magnificent new color — deep glowing crimson. Very 

 large fluffy blooms composed of a mass of daintily in- 

 terlaced plume-like petals and borne on heavy non- 

 lateral stems. An early bloomer remaining in flower 

 for a long time. Tr. pkt. 40c; oz. $2.50. 



Aurora Golden Sheaf (W. R.) 



The deepest yellow of all Asters. Has fully double 

 flowers representing a comparatively new type in that 

 they are composed of several rows of short ray petals 

 surrounding a full crest-like center cushion. Comes 

 perfectly true. Tr. pkt. 40c; oz. $1.75. 



Heart of France (W.R.) 



This is the largest flowering of the very dark red 

 sorts. The plants grow about 24 inches high, are nicely 

 branched and bear in September large, rich deep ruby 

 red flowers on long, strong stems. A fine dark variety. 

 Trade pkt. 30c; oz. $1.75. 



Red Aster "Sensation" (W.R.) 



This is the reddest of all red Asters, the color being 

 a rich garnet or ox blood red which glistens in the 

 sunshine like a live coal. The plants are of free- 

 branching habit, about 18 inches high. The very double 

 flowers average 3% inches across. Tr. pkt. 30c; oz. $1.50. 



Early Giant Light Blue (W.R.) 



This new type represents the finest large-flowered 

 heavy-stemmed wilt-resistant Aster yet developed. The 

 flowers are of the large Giants of California type while 

 the plants are about 1% feet tall. It is an early 

 bloomer with the flowers opening 4 to 6 weeks in ad- 

 vance of the Giants of California. That means they 

 bloom during early or mid-August when few other 

 Asters are available. Trade pkt. 50c; oz. $2.50. 



Early Giant Peachblossom (W.R.) 



Fluffy white flowers with a distinctive Peachblossom 

 tinge. Very large and beautiful. An outstanding ad- 

 dition to the Early Giant class. Tr. pkt. 50c; oz. $2.50. 



Early Giant Rose Marie (W.R.) 



A valuable companion to Light Blue variety which 

 it resembles in every respect but having blooms of a 

 truly wonderful rich rose color. Its early blooming 

 habit is another important and valuable feature of par- 

 ticular interest to all florists. Tr. pkt. 50c; oz. $3.00. 



California Giant Aster 



Improved California Giant Asters 



A splendid midseason to late flowering strain, the 

 result of years of painstaking selection by one of Cali- 

 fornia's leading hybridizers. The plants grow 3 to 3% 

 feet high. They have long, strong stems, 18 to 24 

 inches in length, bearing beautifully formed, curled, 

 and interlaced flowers, 5 inches and over across.

Beauty Asters 



This type is most valuable on account of its late 

 flowering, coming into bloom fully two weeks later than

 cut flowers from early October until killing frost in

 of perfect blooms.
