Aster, Daybreak. 
A Quartette of American 
Asters. 
The finest on earth. Clear, pure colors. 
Graceful habit. 
Daybreak. One of the best Asters ever 
raised, magnificent flowers 
on long stems, globe-shaped, of the sweet¬ 
est color ever seen Delicate sea-shell pink, 
similar to Daybreak Carnation, profuse 
bloomer. Packet, 100 seeds, 10c.'; 3 f\,r

Purity. Identical in size, form and habit 
to Daybreak ; flowers, pure glis¬ 
tening white. The handsomest and best of 
all white Asters. Packet, 100 seeds, 10c.; 
3 for 25c. 
Snowdrift. This Aster is a phenomenon. 
because it is the earliest to 
bloom and has immense fluffy, plumy snow- 
white flowers of the ostrich feather t\ r pe, 
borne on long stems, making it a superb 
sort for cutting. Packet, 100 seeds, 12c.; 
3 for 30c. 
Lavender Gem. One of the most 
beautiful Asters 
which ever came under our notice. It is of 
true Comet type, with large, artistic, loosely 
arranged flowers, and as the plant is of 
branching habit, they are on long, wiry 
stems, while the color is the most charming 
shade of lavender imaginable. A gem in¬ 
deed, either for cutting or bedding. 
Packet, 100 seeds, 12c.; 3 for 30c. 
1 Packet each of the above 4 Amer¬ 
ican Asters, 35c. 
Superb Branching Asters. 
(Semple’s Branching.) 
These American Asters thrive better in our climate 
than any of the imported sorts. The plants make 
strong branching bushes 2 to 2J4 feet high, bearing on 
long, strong stems, often 20 inches long, their hand¬ 
some Chrysanthemum-like flowers, which average over 
5 inches across. For vases and cut flowers for the house, 
they are magnificent. By far the most satisfactory 
Aster grown. Bloom August and September.
