rr^,^^,f','r?^-~™^'^*'''^*'"*^'^'^^tyof an entirely new class, which 
from the bu.ld of its flowers, is as beautiful as it is distinct. They ma,- ^ best 
compared to those of LilHput Dahlias. In form they are semi-sprerical and 
composed of qu>te short and very thickly-set, imbricated petals. It has ong 
mated from the M.gnon Aster, of which a description and cut will be found on 
another page. A smgle plant of the White Princess develops as many as thirty 
pure white flowers, which, -,y reason of their refined and faultless form, may be 
ut.lued with the greatest advantage for all purposes for which white cut flow- 
ers are in request, more especially as they remain longer in good condition than 
any others and last, but not least, the White Princess Aster is most excellent 
for pots. It IS undoubtedly the forerunner of a very superior class, and at the 
same time an excellent novelty. Pkt. 20o. (See illus., fig. 1.) 
Ball or Jewel.— A very handsome, new and magnificent class of Asters which 
we obtained from the well-known large flowered Pa^ony Perfection tribe 
Similar, but somewhat dwarier in habit than the latter, it distinguishes itself at 
first sight by Its beautiful, shorter-petaled and perfectly round flowers which 
may be compared to the finest varieties of the incurved class of Chrysanthe- 
mums. Theengravingof the single flower above shows the noble form of the 
flowers better than it can possibly be described. The plants attain a height of 
about e.ghtecn to twenty inches; the fully developed flowers, measuring from 
two and one-half to three inches across, are as round as a ball, and, being borne 
on long stalks, they will prove very useful for cutting and bunching. 
Apple Blossom.— Delicate shell pink. Pkt. 20o. 
Deep Rose.— Very fine color. Pkt. 20c. (See illus.. fig. 2 ) 
Triumph.-This fine novelty is one of the most beautiful and* perieet of all 
d warf Asters. It attains a height of but seven or eight inches, and reproduces 
Itself quite true from seed. The flowers, which measure from two and one-half 
to three inches across, are of the most faultless P.-eony form, all the petals being 
beautifully incur.-ed. When first expanding the flowers are of a peculiar hril 
hant scariet shade changing when in full bloom to a deep satiny blood scarlet
