EVERYTHING FOR THE GARDEN— Flower Seed* 



Aster Imperial or "Daybreak" 



THE BEDDING ASTER PAR EXCELLENCE 



Mid-summer flowering varieties, and very profuse bloom- 

 ers — veritable bouquets of flowers — and in consequence are 

 unrivalled for bedding. The flowers — borne on good, long, 

 stiff stems — are so very double as to appear almost like 

 balls. The petals, short and narrow, are slightly folded and 

 of durable lasting substance. While splendid as cut flow- 

 ers, it is the bedding Aster — par excellence. Per Per 1,000

King Aster 



An american type of distinctive beauty, unlike any other 

 Asters grown. The plants are tall, strong growers, with long 

 stems crowned with massive double flowers 5 inches across, 

 composed of long, narrow, straight petals folded lengthwise, 

 which gives them a quilled appearance. The flowers are of 

 great substance and last longer cut than any other Aster.

Heart of France Aster 



The Color of a Glowing Ruby 



1306 The best pure red Aster ever introduced. Heart of France opens 

 red as the purest ruby, deepens with age and retains its re- 

 markable beauty to the very end. The flowers are large 

 and full, with never a trace of hollow center. The plants 

 are of branching type and very robust habit. The 

 stems are long and strong and have very few laterals. 

 The plants begin to bloom quite early in the season 

 and open fully with the mid-season varieties. They 

 retain their brilliancy and lustre for a longer period 

 than almost any other color. (See illustration.)

Last year my Heart of France Asters were much ad- 

 mired.

Extra Early Express Comet Aster 



Early-flowering Comet Asters are of great merit not only 

 for garden purposes, but of even more value for early cut- 

 flowers. Extra-early flowering Asters have heretofore been 

 produced at the expense of either size, doubleness, sub- 

 stance or length of stem, but the Express Comets are nearly 

 as good as late-flowering sorts and come into bloom in the 

 open ground with us by the middle of July. They are the 

 largest early Asters of which we know, flower 3H inches to 

 4 inches across, of double Comet type, splendid substance and 

 long stems; plants healthy and sturdy, branching habit; 18 

 inches high; free bloomers.

Last year my Asters and Sweet Peas grown from your seeds 

 were the enoy of the neighborhood and have made quite a local 

 reputation for me as an amateur gardener. Many of my King 

 Asters measured more than five inches across.
