Alyssum 
AGERATUM MEXICANUM (Floss Flower) 
“HA”—Much prized summer blooming 
plants. They thrive in the hot summer

clusters of small feathery flowers. The 
taller type is useful for cutting while the 
dwarf sorts make excellent edging plants.

ALYSSUM “HA” (Procumbens or Carpet of 
Snow)—Four inches high. The finest 
edging variety, producing the pleasing 
effect of a snowy mass of tiny white 
flowers obscuring the foliage. Pkt. 10c. 
ASTERS “HHA”—What a brilliant display 
asters make in the garden in early au¬ 
tumn! We offer a splendid assortment 
of the chief types which differ in form 
and season of blooming. Asters are ideal 
bedding plants, and the long stems of 
many sorts make them exceptional as 
cut flowers. 
Double Giant Crego Asters —Grow 2 feet. 
This class, also called “Ostrich Plume” 
and “Giant Comet” blooms a few days af¬ 
ter the earlier varieties which are not 
so desirable. Double flowers of fine size, 
have long, shaggy, twisted petals and are 
borne abundantly on branching plants 
of robust growth. WILT RESISTANT 
STRAIN. Pkt. Mixed 10c. 
Double Giants of California —Grow 2% 
feet. Selected from the Cregos, this type 
has flowers of the same form, but they 
are larger and carried on longer stems. 
This makes them better as cut flowers. 
They come into bloom two weeks after 
Cregos and should be planted only where 
the growing season is long. Pkt. Mixed 15c. 
Giant Sunshine Asters —This artistic flower 
grows to a height of 2 Mi feet and has a 
single row of outer petals adorned with 
a tufted center of short florets. A new 
race which is taller and larger flowered 
than any of the older Sunshine types. 
Pkt. Mixed 15c. 
BACHELOR BUTTON “HA”—Often called 
Cornflower. Produces flowers on tall 
stems varied in color and excellent for 
cutting. Pkt. Mixed 10c.
