OSTRICH FEATHER. 



This magnificent Aster may be briefly described as being the 

 finest of the Comet type yet introduced, differing in the candela- 

 bra form of growth and greater freedom of bloom, but its greatest 

 merit is in the flowers, which are of immense size; made up of 

 much longer, more loosely formed petals, equalling the best 

 Japanese Chrysanthemums. Blooms in August. When u-ed for 

 cutting, the flowers should be picked when about half expanded 

 and allowed to develop in water in a cool room. (See cut.)
