Exhibition Aster Mixtures 
COLOR MIXTURES. The increasing de- 
mand for Asters as cut-flowers makes it 
desirable to grow them in separate colors. 
I therefore offer my newest and largest 
sorts, those especially adapted for exhibition 
purposes, in five groups, as follows. Read 
and tell me if this is not a method you have 
long wished for. Pkt., 75 seeds, 5c; V6 oz.,
