LARGE SINGLE CHINA ASTERS 
Single flowers are coming much in vogue among people of aesthetic tastes 
and those influenced by fashion’s decree: beautiful but simple.—This 
change of front from double to single has created a demand for long-stemmed 
large single China Asters which are of unsurpassed decorative effect when 
cut and vased. These Asters, of strong healthy growth, are profuse bloomers 
and are also showy garden plants.

MINIATURE WALDERSEE ASTERS 
This new type forms compact, globular bushes 
8 to 10 inches high by 8 to 10 inches in diameter; 
they branch densely, forming little mounds and when 
in flower the effect is truly beautiful; the plants 
are literally smothered with charming small double 
flowers 1 to 1)4 inches scross; 100 to 200 flowers 
borne on a single plant are not unusual. They are 
especially effective for bedding out in masses and 
edgings, as they remain in bloom for a long period. 
When grown in pots they make pretty specimens.
