1114 PEERLESS PINK. This 

 grand new pink aster which origi- 

 nated as a sport in a lot of Crego's 

 Giant Pink asters Is midway be- 

 tween Crego's Giant Pink and Late 

 Branching Shell Pink, having all 

 the good points of both. The plants 

 are of robust and branching habit 

 24 to 30 inches high, bearing magni- 

 ficent blooms on strong stems, 

 averaging 18 inches in length, the 

 globular-shaped flowers measuring 

 4 to 6 inches in diameter and of 

 great depth and densely petaled. 

 The centre petals are prettily in- 

 curved, while the wide, outer petals 

 reflex, making a most artistic flower. 

 It outclasses all other asters grown, 

 even a full blown flower never ex- 

 hibited the yellow disk. The color 

 is a rich shell pink. It blooms about 

 the middle of August, being at its 

 best during the early part of Septem- 

 ber, or a trifle earlier than the late 

 branching sorts. The style and sub- 

 stance of the flowers anil formation 

 of the plant makes itan elegant sort 

 either for cutting or for bedding.
