New White Branching Aster. 
THE FLORISTS’ FAVORITE 
“The crimson blossoms of the coral tree 
In the warm isles of India's sunny seal' 
begon^ BRAND -Moore, “Lalla Rookli.” 
The rarest and finest of all Begonias. It is particularly adapted to pot culture 
on account of the beautiful waxy appearance of both foliage and flowers. The 
habit of growth is neat and quite compact, each plant forming a beautiful speci¬ 
men. The flowers are a handsome shade of bright coral-red and are greatly in¬ 
tensified in brilliancy by the luxuriant dark green foliage of the plant. A rare 
and beautiful plant. Each 35 cents; two 60 cents; three 80 cents . 
We have the pleasure of introducing to flower- 
lovers a variety of Aster having some peculiar and 
very valuable characteristics. The plant is a 
strong grower, and its tendency to form numerous 
branches is very marked. The plant continues to 
grow later in the season than any other variety 
with which we are acquainted, and blooms corres¬ 
pondingly late, thus giving its crop of flowers in 
1 a t e a u t u in ri, a season when there is always a 
scarcity of bloom. 
The flowers are borne on very long stems and 
are pure white, being four inches and more in 
diameter. The petals are broad, long, and many 
of them more or less twisted and curled in such a 
manner as to give the blooms the appearance of 
large, loose and graceful Chrysanthemums. The 
resemblance is so great that nearly evei*y one would 
so consider them when seen as cut flowers. 
All florists who have se£n them greatly admire 
them, and there is no question that they will 
quickly find a place for themselves in the flower 
trade, anticipating, as they do, the Chrysanthe¬ 
mum season by a month or six weeks. 
Price , per packet, 25 cents.
