New Super-Giant Aster, Los Angeles

the pure shell pink of the blooms. Of magnificent tall 
growth. Tr. pkt. 40c; oz. $2.00. 
New Super Giant Aster, El Monte 
A magnificent new color—deep glowing crimson. Very

terlaced plume-like petals and borne on heavy non- 
lateral stems. An early bloomer remaining in flower 
for a long time. Tr. pkt. 40c; oz. $2.00. 
Aurora Golden Sheaf (W. R.)

surrounding a full crest-like center cushion. Comes 
perfectly true and is wilt resistant. Tr. pkt. 40c; oz.

Heart of France (W.R.)

red flowers on long, strong stems. A fine dark variety. 
Trade pkt. 40c; oz. $1.75. 
Red Aster ‘‘Sensation”’ (W.R.) 
This is the reddest of all red Asters, the color being 
a rich garnet or ox blood red which glistens in the 
sunshine like a live coal. The plants are of free- 
branching habit, about 18 inches high. The very double 
flowers average 3% inches across. Tr. pkt. 30c; oz. $1.50. 
Aster Early Giant Light Blue (W.R.)_ 
This new type represents the finest large-flowered 
heavy-stemmed wilt-resistant Aster yet developed. The 
flowers are of the large Giants of California type while 
the plants are about 1% feet tall. It is an early 
bloomer with the flowers opening 4 to 6 weeks in ad- 
vance of the Giants of California. That means they 
bloom during early or mid-August when few other 
Asters are available. Trade pkt. 50c; oz. $2.50. 
Early Giant Rose Marie (W.R.) 
_ A valuable companion to the preceding variety which 
it resembles in every respect but having blooms of a 
truly wonderful rich rose color. Its early blooming 
habit is another important and valuable feature of par- 
ticular interest to all florists. Tr. pkt. 50c; oz. $3.50. 

California Giant Aster 
Improved California Giant Asters 
A splendid midseason to late flowering strain, the 
result of years of painstaking selection by one of Cali- 
fornia’s leading hybridizers. The plants grow 3 to 3% 
feet high. They have long, strong stems, 18 to 24 
inches in length, bearing beautifully formed, curled, 
and interlaced flowers, 5 inches and over across.

Beauty Asters 
This type is most valuable on account of its late 
flowering, coming into bloom fully two weeks later than 
our Superb Late Branching and furnishing high-grade 
cut flowers from early October until killing frost in 
November. The plants are unusually vigorous. They 
grow from 2% to 3 feet high and bear a great quantity 
of perfect blooms.
