 proved Rochester, being of the same 

 type and beautiful lavender pink color, 

 tho a shade darker and a much larger

 like a great Chrysanthemum, many 

 blooms measuring six inches. My cus- 

 tomers commend this highly. Blush-pink

ASTERMUMS 



A splendid new type of the Comet, or 

 Ostrich Plume Aster, introduced after 

 eight years of painstaking selection. The 

 originator says, "The three colors are 

 unsurpassed. The lavender has never 

 before been produced, the pink is the 

 beautiful pink of the rose and the white 

 as white as the driven snow." Lavender.

 mixed. Pkt., 50 seeds, 8c.

 and no doubt many improvements have 

 been made, the Comet still holds its 

 place in popular favor and it should not 

 be omitted from a representative list.
