HENDERSON'S INVINCIBLE ASTERS are the latest and 

 highest achievements in China Asters, a superior race in 

 every way. The plants are of very healthy, robust, branch- 

 ing growth, about two feet high, producing, on long stems, 

 massive, Peony-formed flowers of perfect form and fault- 

 less outline, and exceedingly double to the very center. 

 The flowers are the most beautifully formed of all large Asters. 

 The petals are of thick durable substance, and, in consequence, 

 the flowers last long in perfection. These Asters are wonderfully 

 prolific and continuous bloomers from summer until checked by 

 frost. When grown in inasses in garden borders, or grouped in beds, 

 their decorative effect is unapproachably gay and enlivening. When 

 well grown the flowers of Henderson's Invincible Asters average 3 J 

 inches across ; 4-inch flowers are quite common, and if grown especially 

 for cut flowers, the side branches pruned, allowing a plant to carry not 

 over 8 or 10 flowers, one flower to a stem, their size will then be 

 enormous, measuring 4J and 5 inches across. These magnificent 

 blossoms being gracefully poised on strong, well-leaved stems 15 to 

 18 inches long, resemble good-sized Chrysanthemums, and are unsur- 

 passed as cut flowers for vases and home decoration.
