Coreopsis 
ASTER, Beechwood Challenger (See 
Illustration) —Unsurpassed red hardy 
Aster. Flowers clear red with bright 
yellow centers. Vigorous 5 foot bush, 
covered with a mass of crimson bloom 
from early September until frost. Out¬ 
standing because of its ease of growth, 
and disease resistant foliage. 
ASTER, Mt. Everest (See Illustration) 
—Finest of all white asters. An abund¬ 
ance of lateral growth make the plant 
a pyramid of beautiful yellow centered 
flowers. 
ASTER, Harrington’s Pink —Newest and 
greatest pink Aster. Has been accorded 
tremendous and immediate popularity 
because of its fine free blooming 
qualities, and glorious large pink 
flowers. The buds first break into 
color in August and do not fade until 
hard frost. The profusion of the 
blooms, the disease resistance of the 
foliage and richness of the silvery 
pink flowers with golden yellow cen¬ 
ters, make this a treasure of the 
garden.

Without question, Amethyst is the 
finest purple-blue Aster in existence.

produced by the hundred on sturdy, 
upright stems. This lovely Aster is not 
only outstanding because of its gor¬ 
geous color—but also for its hardi¬ 
ness. Crows about 3 feet tall.
