VAUGHAN'S ASTERS. 



Uur Aster seed is raised by i:\ pcriciiccJ and reliable seed 

 growers, in many cases from our own stock seed, and should not 

 be compared to stock raised in the South or by experimenters who 

 use no care and lack experience. 



A selection of the Pseony-Flowered type, this new Aster is now the favorite 

 in the ChicaRo cut-flower market. The flouers are large and firm, the stems 

 long and stiff and the colors are decided and pleasing. The plants grow about 

 36 inches high and come into bloom before the Branching Asters. 



Our seed of this is saved from plants that were not blighted and were grown 

 for the seed only. There is also a lot of seed in the market that is saved from 

 inferior flowers, the best having been sold for cut-flowers.

HOHENZOLLERN ASTER. 



The finest type of the Giant Comet or Ostrich Feather type of Asters. Much 

 larger than the Giant Comet, the petals longer and more curled and twisted, 

 and produced in greater abundance. Borne on long stems, which makes them 

 cut-flowers par excellence. 



Hohenzollern, White. This is considered the grandest Aster ever intro- 

 <hiced. Plant tall-growing, branching and bearing on very long stalks, flowers 

 on stalks of from 1 !4 to 2 feet in length, measure up to 8 inches across, being 

 densely double, finely curled and bearing the greatest resemblance to a large- 

 flowered Japanese Chrysanthemum. Unequalled as a cut-flower and highly 

 effective for tall beds and groups. Trade pkt., 25c.: !4 oz., 40c.; oz., 

 • 1.40.
