CREGO'S GIANT COMET ASTERS 
ALSO KNOWN AS ASTERMUMS AND MAMMOTH OSTRICH PLUME 
These truly grand Asters win enthusiastic admiration from all who see them. 
They are a highly developed American type of the German Comet, Hohen- 
zollern or Mammoth Ostrich Plume Asters and are far superior to imported 
strains. The flowers are of immense size, 4 to 5 and often 6 inches across, 
composed of long, wavy, twisted petals, gracefully formed into loose, yet densely 
double, half-globes, equaUing some of the finer Ostrich Plume Chrysanthemums . 
The plants, of luxuriant branching growth, attain a height of 18 inches to Z Icet, 
each plant bearing from 20 to 30 of these magnificent flowers on very long 
stems, which gives them an added value for cutting and vasing.
