Fraser IMPROVED ASTERS Bloom from 
In few other plants have such strides been made in im- 
provement 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 blooming 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.

bloom late in September and lasting way into October.

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 cen- 
ter. The outer petals reflex and the center ones curve grace- 
fully inward. A magnificent Aster for both garden display 
and for cutting.
