ASTER MIXTURES 

 EXHIBITION ASTER MIXTURES 



Color Mixtures. The increasing demand for 

 Asters as cut-flowers makes it desirable to grow 

 them in separate colors. I therefore offer my new- 

 est and largest sorts, those especially adapted for 

 exhibition or commercial purposes, in five groups, 

 as follows. Read and tell me if this is not a method 

 you have long wished for. 



Price, per pkt., 75 seeds, 5c; any 3 pkts., 10c. 



Exhibition Dark Blue and Purple Asters. A 

 mixture including these shades in the Comet, Crego, 

 Invincible, Queen of the Market and Semple's and 

 Royal and Upright classes, 7 sorts. 



Exhibition Deep Pink and Rose Asters. A 

 mixture of these shades in the following classes: 

 Comet, Crego, Crimson Giant, Invincible, King, 

 Royal, Upright and Semple's; also Lady Roosevelt, 

 9 sorts. 



Exhibition Lavender Asters. A mixture in- 

 cluding lavender shades in the Comet, Crego, In- 

 vincible, Queen of the Market, Royal and Semple's 

 classes, also Vick's Lavender Gem, 7 sorts. 



Exhibition Light Pink Asters. A mixture of 

 light pink, including all the light pink shades listed 

 under Comet, Crego, Daybreak, Invincible, Peer- 

 less Pink, Rochester, Queen of the Market, Up- 

 right and Semple's classes, some 9 sorts.

SPECIAL EXHIBITION PRIZE 

 ASTERS, MIXED 



This is a special mixture which I make myself in- 

 cluding large-flowering varieties only, in an attrac- 

 tive range of colors, especially designed for those 

 who are growing for exhibition or commercial pur- 

 poses, and I do not hesitate to class it with the best 

 on the market. I have hundreds of letters com- 

 mending my Asters, and know that no other general 

 mixture will give better satisfaction. Pkt., 75 seeds, 

 5c; 3 pkts., 12c; }i oz., 40c. 



IMPERIAL ASTER MIXTURE 



This is another of my special mixtures, con- 

 taining all the named varieties I list excepting 

 the later novelties. And I have also obtained 

 for it a mixture from the trial grounds of exten- 

 sive Aster growers, which contains their un- 

 named novelties, including some of a very dis- 

 tinct new type. This mixture will therefore be 

 a close rival of mv Exhibition Prize strain. Pkt., 

 100 seeds, 5c; 3 pkts., 12c; J4 oz., 35c. 



ASTERS, GOOD MIXED 



My left-over mixture, including only such 

 varieties as have tested well. A large percent- 

 age will germinate. Pkt., 200 seeds, 3c.
