WHITE ROSE SEED & NURSERY CO. 
ASTERS (HA) Asters are one of the most import¬ 
ant summer and autumn flowers that we have, 
and no garden should be without them. The 
long stems make them very valuable for cut 
flowers and the blooms last long in water. It 
must be remembered, however, that good cul¬ 
ture is essential in order to obtain an abund¬ 
ance of fine flowers.
