Many Flowering Minature Asters 
This is a now type which grows very compact, plants 8 to 10 inches high and 
branch very freely, producing small deep green foliage, making a very handsome 
effect, growing many flowers of all colors. These Asters are of great value for 
cd beings of flower beds as the plants are literally covered with handsome small 
double flowers, one to two inches across. They are very effective for bedding in 
masses, as a single plant will produce from 150 to200 flowers, which remain in bloom 
for a long time. These Asters may also be grown in pots. Pkt. 5c., 3 pkts., 1 Ac .

taining all the best colors. When you want a beautiful sweet scented bou¬

CARNATIONS 
Early Giant 
Flowering 
F^rom Seed 
This grand strain of Karly 
Flowering Carnation seed 
will produce flowers in three 
to four months from the time 
of sowing the seed. The plant 
is of strong growing habit 
branching very freely and the 
variety of colors include all 
the different shades of pink, 
carmine scarlet, maroon, dark 
crimson’ as well as many beau¬ 
tiful variegated flowers, many 
of which have odd markings. 
The plants grow easily any¬ 
where and will give great sat¬ 
isfaction on account of produc¬ 
ing flowers so quickly from the 
seed. From the time they be¬ 
gin blooming, they continue 
until frost. Seeds sown during 
the summer will produce plants 
which can be potted in fall 
and produce an abundance of 
bloom throughout the winter.

We have succeeded in securing a wonderful col¬ 
lection of Japanese Chrysanthemum seed and there 
is hardly any flower produced from seed that 
can take the place of this. Think of seed producing 
all the curious and odd shaped flowers as shown in 
the illustration. Our mixture is composed of all the 
best Japanese and Chinese varieties, which are im¬ 
ported from Japan. Among the curious shapes and 
beautiful colors will be found the Ostrich Plume 
sort, twisted and curled, and nearly all other shapep 
you can imagine. In addition to the Japanese va¬ 
riety, we include the Annual Chrysanthemums 
which produce large flowers of crimson, gold and 
white colors. The entire mixture of seed soon begins 
to bloom and by winter the plants are large enough 
to produce a gorgeous display of flowers. Fine 
mixed all varieties, shapes and colors. Pkt
