ASTERS 
New Aster, Autumn Glory Pure sea- 
■ shell pink. 
While similar in color to Semple's Pink, it has a better 
and more substantial flower, a deeper and longer-keep- 
ing colour, larger and stronger type of plant. While 
it cannot take the place of Peerless Pink, and others 
of similar colour, all of which are earlier, it supple- 
ments them by blooming after the other Late Asters 
are past their prime, and before the early Chrysan- 
themums are ready, thus prolonging the Aster season 
two weeks and coming at a time when good flowers 
are extremely scarce. Pkt., 20 cts. 
New Aster, Triumph Comet Six colors 
— ; _ are offered 
this year of this splendid new class of midseason Asters, 
bearing full double flowers of the choicest type, with 
centre showing spiral effect: The blooms are large 
and fluffy, borne on long, straight stems. The flowering 
season of the Triumph Comet type is between the extra 
early sorts and the branching varieties. Plants grow 
fairly tall and have an upright habit.
