LARGE SINGLE CHINA ASTERS 



Single flowers are simple and beautiful, and much in vogue among people 

 of taste. This liking for single flowers has created a demand for long-stemmed 

 large single China Asters, which are of unsurpassed decorative effect when 

 cut and vased. These Asters, of strong, healthy growth, are profuse bloomers 

 and are also showy garden plants.
