American Beauty Asters 
Similar in type and growth to the Late Branching Asters, large, full flowers with incurve petals 
and stout stems from 15 to 24 inches in length and longer flowering than any other aster. Should 
be planted early to give it a longer season of growth and it will continue blooming until killed by 
the frost. Especially desirable for cut flowers and recommended for florists’ use

PEERLESS ASTERS 
Said by experts to be the best shell-pink of 
its type. It is a cross between the pink Crego 
and late-branching shell-pink, but is more close¬ 
ly related to the latter class in form, color and 
season of flowering. They bear immense flow¬ 
ers, 4 and 5 inches across, of a beautiful rose 
or shell-pink color. PKT., 60 SEEDS, 8c; ^

ASTERS 
A splendid Aster. The plants are 
upright in habit, bearing immensely 
large flowers on long, strong stems. 
The color is soft pink, like that of 
the popular Pink Enchantress Car¬ 
nation. The blooming period is an 
advantage, too, as they come be¬ 
tween the mid-season and the late- 
blooming sorts. PKT., 75 SEEDS,

ASTERS—CALIFORNIA SUNSHINE. Td.” tZ 
blooms are especially artistic, the outer petals being long and narrow, whereas the center petals 
are tubular in shape. Stems measure two to two and one-half feet making this variety excellent for 
cutting. The flowers themselves are very dainty. We offer California Sunshine in a mixture includ¬ 
ing Flesh, Pink, Carmine, Lavender and Violet at a price which should make this new novelty 
very attractive.

ASTER—PEERLESS YELLOW. 
We have been working for several 
years to obtain a good yellow aster 
and have at last developed one that is extremely good. It can be described as of American 
branching habit, height about two feet, flowers of good size and form, petals slightly incurved 
but with no trace of quills as in the earlier forms of yellow asters. The color is a deep yellow 
when first opened and fades slightly as it ages. PACKET 20c; TRADE PACKET 35c
