ASTERS 
The beauty of the Aster as a garden plant and its usfulness 
as a fine cut flower is well appreciated. Half-hardy annuals 
they may be sown indoors March-April or in the open when 
safe from frost. I have offered here what I believe to be the 
finest types for the garden and cutting.

blooms 6 in. across on stiff stems. The centers are quilled 
while the long narrow guard petals are flat. My Supreme

salmon-pink, snow white and other lovely tones. Pkt. 20c;
