Seeds of Beautiful ANNUAL FLOWERS 
NEWER AND BETTER ASTERS 
Haines Astermum 
The Beauty of the Aster—the size of the Chrysanthemum. The Astermums differ 
from all other of their type in the larger size and greater profusion of their flowers, 
each plant bearing from 20 to 30 blossoms. These loose, airy heads, made up of very 
long, wavy, twisted petals, have a distinct feathery effect, resembling the finest Jap¬ 
anese Chrysanthemums. Plants grow 2 feet high. Mixed. Pkt., 10c; Vs oz., 39c; 
Vz oz., $1.30; oz., $2.50.

of color. About August 1st you will have a bushy plant more than 3 feet high with
