grow about 3 feet high and are 
very prolific, the cut flowers last¬ 
ing well in water. 
It is not advisable to attempt 
to grow them in shade—best re¬ 
sults are had when these beau¬ 
ties are grown in full sun. We 
offer the following colors: Pinks, 
Yellows, Reds, and Mixed. Each 
color runs through its various 
shades and tones and the bril¬ 
liant colors, with flower spurs 
often 5 to 6 inches long, create 
a beautiful effect. State colors 
wanted. Each, 55c; 3 for $1.50; 
dozen, .$4.50.

ing from early August until stopped

We consider it the finest Aster intro¬ 
duction in 20 years. There is no 
other one that blooms so persistently 
over so long a period—not just a 
bloom or two, but a constant rich dis¬ 
play is had all summer. The flowers 
are excellent for cutting. In very ex¬ 
posed places, it is worth a little win- 
ter protection. Each, 55c; 3 i«r
