MY SELECT ASTERS 
READ MOST CAREFULLY. 
Crefo A iter. (See description page 4.) 
Don't be Afraid of my low aster pri'os. Scores of complimentary 
letters are evidence of satisfactory seed. Please note that I follow my 
usual custom of lessening the size of the package instead of Increasing 
the price. Wouldn’t you rather have a larger assortment for same outlay? 
What Varieties of Asters shall I buy? An important question, 
•-P dally i<>r ih <e who grow for exhibition purposes. 
Will you take my Judgment? For early, Queen of the Mar¬ 
ket. For second-curly, Daybreak, Lavender Gem. Purity. Sunset, Vic¬ 
toria. For medium Comet and allied styles, sueli ns Ilokcnzollcrn 
Ostrich Plume, Crego or Mikado, Pink Beauty, Royal Purple. For late, 
Semple’s Branching and Invincible. 
Almost all the Novelties of the last few years have been 
variations of lour types. C. met. Queen of the Market, Victoria and 
Semples, and these will always be standards. I have, however, gathered 
from the most prominent growers what I consider to be their best 
novelties, which you will find offered In attractive form and at 
available prices. 
All the last Branching Asters listed by different seedsmen 
under different names belong to the Semple’s class. 
Asters, 
Pansies, 
Sweet 
Peas 
are my 
Special 
ties. 
GIANT COMET ASTER 
The flowers are very large and the petals so twisted and curled as to 
give a decidedly Chrysanthemum effect. Splendid for cutting. As. they 
are medium early, grow them with late varieties for a succession of 
bloom. Price of each, per pkt., 12.1 seeds, 5c; 2 pkts., 8c. 
Giant Comet, The Bride, and also light pink. The Bride Is at first 
pure white, then changes to a lovely pink and finally to a beantful rose. 
Giant Comet, Lavender and Blue. Various shades of lavender 
and blue, including b^th light and dark varieties. 
Giant Comet, Pink and Rose. Various shades of pink, including 
the new Salmon Ros**. 
Giant Comet, White. Pure White, beautifully fringed. 
Giant Comet, Mixed. A special mixture of the above and other 
choice varieties.
