California Giant Aster 
.-of*.. 
Fraser’s Improved 
Asters 
In few other plants have such strides been made 
in improvement of varieties, as has been among 
the asters. Asters bloom all through the summer 
and autumn from plants started in seed boxes 
under frames, beginning in January and con¬ 
tinuing until May. This program will give bloom¬ 
ing plants from May until October or later. If 
you do not care to go to this trouble, seeds may 
be planted in the open ground in April or May. 
You will want at least one portion of your garden 
set aside for the "Queen" of autumn flowers.

EARLY AMERICAN BEAUTY ASTERS 
WILT RESISTANT STRAIN 
This is one of the finest American Asters, coming into bloom 
late in September and lasting way into October. Often the 
plants produce their finest flowers after we have had some 
light frost. The plants grow nearly 3 feet high. They are 
vigorous and strong branching, bearing very large round 
blooms which are completely double to the very center. The 
outer petals reflex and the center ones curve gracefully in¬ 
ward. A magnificent Aster for both garden display and for 
cutting.
