HENDERSON'S INVINCIBLE

“My Invincible Asters were awarded First Prize at the Berkshire 
Co. Fair last year. Some of the flowers measured 5 inches across.” 
Mrs. CHESTER HOPKINS, Blackington, Kan. 
“Last fall I received 'two blues and one red ’ ( premiums ) from 
the R. Cojinlry Club flower show for Invincible Asters and they 
created a perfect furore of enthusiasm.” 
Mrs. FRANCIS E. FOSS, 9828 Winston Ave., Chicago, III. 
“Our Henderson's Invincible Asters last year were grand. The 
plants grew to be nearly feel tall; the blossoms were immeyise and 
the colors most beautiful.” 
Mrs. E. W. SHEARBURN, Iladdam, Kan. 
“The Invincible Asters are grand. I find none to equal them in 
this coujilry. They cause no little comment in our town. ” 
Dr. L. 0. BARNARD, Kelso, Wash. 
“ Your grand Invincible Asters have certainly given me a reputa¬ 
tion as an Aster fancier.” 
HARRY GERHART, Marshalltown, Iowa. 
“Last year I grew your Invincible Asters with stems 28 inches 
long and flowers inches across. All perfect flowers.” 
J. II. BALLOU, Springville, N. Y. 
“You would have taken off your hat if you could have seen my 
Invincible Asters last year; some flowers 6 inches in diameter.” 
EDWIN A. NEWTON, Rockville, Conn. 
Invincible Asters 
These are the latest and highest achievements in China Asters, a superior race in every way. 
The plants are of very healthy, robust, branching growth, about 2 feet high—though under best 
culture often 3 feet—producing, on long stems, massive Chrysanthemum-like flowers of perfect 
form and graceful outline, and are exceedingly double to the very center. The flowers are the 
most beautifully formed of all large Asters. The petals are of thick, durable substance, and, 
in consequence, the flowers last long in perfection. These Asters are wonderfully prolific and 
continuous bloomers from summer until frost. When grown in masses in garden borders, or 
grouped in beds, their decorative effect is unapproachably gay and enlivening. When well 
grown the flowers of Henderson’s Invincible Asters average 3}4 inches across; 4-inch flowers 
are quite common, and if grown especially for cut flowers, the side branches pruned, allowing a 
plant to carry not over 8 or 10 flowers, one flower to a stem, their size will then be enormous, 
measuring 4k£ and 5 inches across. These magnificent blossoms being gracefully poised on 
strong, well-leaved stems 15 to 18 inches long, resemble large-sized Chrysanthemums, and are 
unsurpassed as cut flowers for vases and home decoration. 
We have received many enthusiastic letters of praise from our patrons—regarding these 
Asters—some of whom have been fortunate enough to capture prizes with them at local exhibi¬ 
tions, flower shows, etc. ( See cut.)
