Asters 
HALF HARDY ANNUAL 
During the late Summer and 
early Fall the garden is usually a 
riot of reds and yellows, so that 
the Asters in their dainty and dis¬ 
tinct colors are a pleasing addi¬ 
tion. The long stems make them 
desirable for cut flowers and the 
blooms last long in water. 
For early flowers sow the seed 
in boxes during March or April 
and transplant to the open ground 
in May. For late Summer blooms 
sow the seed in the open in May.
