Valuable for Pot Culture and

lar in form and of extraordinary size. Pkt., 150 seeds, 5 els. 
New Yellow Aster. 
The form of the double flower is a perfect ball; the quills are 
close together and of the brightest sulphur yellow , not a mere 
indication of the color, as in all former productions. The bor- 
der petals are broad and of a lighter tint, seeming to enclose 
the flower like an old-fashioned bouquet paper. The flowers are 
borne upon long, erect stems, excellent for cutting. Plants, 
twelve to fifteen inches high, are of compact, bushy growth, 
and most abundant bloomers. Pkt., 150 seeds, 5 els.

in the Woman s Home Companion, 8 packets of Asters for 25 cents. I have always 
boon an admirer of Astors and have seen many fine beds of them, but none to 
compare with the ones 1 raised last year from the seeds I received from you. Wo 
mado a large star and put the red on the outside row, then the white and in the 
center, blue; it was beautiful. Then 1 bad one bed of the Fire King and white 
that was greatly admired, for the Fire King was ro bright that it dazzled the eye.
