Aster — Giants of California 



(.See illustration above) 

 We take pleasure in recommending this type as being one of the best Asters 

 ever offered to garden lovers. Characterized by the well-known Comet or 

 Ostrich Plume type of flower, combined with the Daybreak Aster's long 

 branching stems and sturdy habit of growth, places this variety at the head 

 of this class. 



Careful selection has perfected this type and we approve of the above for 

 cutting and bedding.

Heart of France Aster 



(Shown in colors on this page) 

 1300 The best pure Red Aster ever introduced. Heart of France opens red 

 as the purest ruby, deepens with age and retains its remarkable beauty 

 t'j 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 Pkt. 25c. 



Imperial or "Daybreak" Aster 



(Shown in colors on this page) 

 These Asters — made in America — are Mid-summer flowering varieties, 

 varieties, healthy and vigorous in growth, of upright bushy habit and very 

 profuse bloomers — veritable bouquets of flowers. The flowers — borne on 

 good, long, stilT 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 flowers, it is the bedding Aster for our 

 American climate and conditions.

King Aster 



(Shown in colors on this page) 

 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 than any other Aster.
