SCHLING’S SUPERB ASTERS 
Asters bloom profusely during August and September. To be 
able to cut abundantly and over the longest possible period, you 
should make several sowings of the early-, medium-, and late- 
^ flowering types. The first sowing in the hotbed in March, trans- 
lant the seedlings when they have four leaves, in bo.xes, 1. inch 
'apart, or singly into small pots. Harden off and plant out in May. 
he soil should be rich and deeply dug. Set plants of the early 
arieties 10 inches apart and those of the later varieties 12 to 14 
inches apart. The second sowing can be made in a cold-frame or in 
a seed-bed outdoors the latter part of April, and the third sowing 
he latter part of May.
