Aster Frikarti, Wonder of Staefa 
Superb Summer- and Autumn-blooming Aster with lovely, clear 
lavender-blue flowers of the A. alpinus type, more than 2 inches across. 
The stocky plants grow 2 Y 2 feet tall and will spread over an area 3 feet 
or more in diameter, blooming in long-stemmed, graceful sprays. A most 
effective subject for a large rock-garden, bearing excellent flowers for 
cutting. Very different from Asters of the Michaelmas Daisy type. 
50 cts. each; $1,35 for 3. 
Shasta Daisy, Esther Read 
A new and particularly lovely snow-white double Shasta Daisy, 
definitely resembling the anemone-flowered type of Chrysanthemum to 
which, of course, it is related. The flowers, borne on lf^-foot stems, are 
3 to 4 inches across. Wonderful for cutting and a free bloomer all summer 
long. Most outstanding. 
$1 each; $2.75 for 3. 
Veronica, Blue Spire 
In the entire hardy plant-list there 
are no finer true blue perennials than 
the Veronicas. Blue Spire is a hybrid 
of V. longijolia subsessilis X V. spi- 
cata. Bushy in habit, and the long 
spikes of rich violet-blue flowers are 
truly superb, coming as they do at a 
time when blue flowers are scarce 
in the hardy border. 
50c each; $4.50 for 10. 
Aster Frikarti, Wonder of Staefa 
Aster alpinus, 
Wartburg Star 
A charming rock-garden subject 
with large, dark lilac-blue flowers 
having orange centers. Dwarf habit. 
Most charming.

Phlox, Tigress 
The brilliant orange- 
scarlet flowers, the im¬ 
mense trusses, and the 
vigorous, upright habit of 
this Phlox, establish it as 
an outstanding new vari¬ 
ety. Tigress is well named, 
having no competition in 
its color class. It is the 
variety to plant for defi¬ 
nite smashing mass effect, 
as it brightens the border 
whether the sun is shining 
or not. 
50c each; $1.25 for 3; 
$4.00 for 10.
