EVEIRYTMIMG FOB. THE 
IMPERIAL or 
DAYBREAK 
ASTERS 
THE AMERICAN VIC- 
TORIA ASTER 
These comparatively new As- 
ters are midsummer flowering 
varieties, healthy and vigorous 
in growth, of upright, bushy 
habit and very profuse bloom- 
ers — veritable bouquets of 
flowers — and in consequence are 
unrivalled for bedding. The 
flowers — borne on good long, 
stiff stems — are so very double 
as to appear almost like balls. 
The petals, short and narrow, 
are slightly folded and of dur- 
able, lastmg substance. While 
splendid as cut flowers, it is as 
the bedding Asters — par ex- 
cellence — for our Canadian 
climate and conditions, that 
the Imperial Asters are espec- 
ially recommended.

EWING'S "MONTREAL" ASTER 
EWING'S "MONTREAL" ASTER 
THE MOST MAGNIFICENT VARIETY OF ALL.

Ewing s Superb Branching Aster, large and strong, and the long brai^ches are very 
""'rhe'flowers are of the Comet type, the petals being long and narrow and grace- 
fully recurved, giving them a lightness and grace that makes them the most artistic 
of aa Asters. The flowers are of immense size — the largest Asters now in cultiva- 
tion their artistic beauty, their delicacy of coloring and freedom of bloom make 
them the grandest Asters ever sent out in this class. Pkt. cts.

Asters. The petals are narrow, very long and gracefully reflexed. The 
outer petals show to their full extent, while gradually toward the center

EXTRA EARLY 
HOHENZOLL- 
ERN ASTER 
Early-flowering Comet As- 
ters of great merit, not only 
for garden purposes, but of 
even more value for early cut 
flowers. Extra-early flowering 
Asters have heretofore been 
produced at the expense of either 
size, doubleness, substance or 
length of stem, but the Extra 
Early HohenzoUem are nearly 
as good as late-flowering sorts. 
They are the largest early Asters of which we know, flowers to 4 inches 
across, of double Comet type; splendid substance and long stems; plants healthy 
and sturdy, of branching habit, 18 inches high; free bloomers.
