N.A. are of the Novae- 
Angliae type and are tall, 
erect, and larger flowering. 
N.B. are of the Novi- 
Belgi type and are more 
profuse in branching and 
flowering. 
ADORABLE. N.A. Another of the Harrington’s Pink type, introduced 
soon after this wonderful variety. Habit and growth of the plant is 
similar, but the color is a slightly deeper salmon and a trifle purer 
pink. Everyone who sees this one in our fields orders it. 
BARR’S PINK. N.A. One of the largest and finest of pink Asters. The 
plant at maturity reaches a height of about 4 feet. Fine used as a 
background for lower growing perennials. A real gem. 
BEECHWOOD CHALLENGER. N.B. A free flowering clear crimson-red 
yh Z bright yellow center. The best red Aster yet offered. Height 
314 feet. 
BLUE GEM. N.B. One of the very best blues. The flowers are double, 
rich in their deep blue coloring, and borne profusely on 3-foot stems. 
CLIMAX. N.B. One of the best and we believe the largest of all the 
light blue varieties. The rich blue flowers are as large as a half dollar 
and a single plant often carries 500 blossoms. Height 5 feet. 
HARRINGTON’S PINK. N.A. This variety was introduced after Barr’s 
Pink. This is the first truly pink Aster we had seen. It is a brighter 
are purer pink than Barr’s and makes a fine cut flower. Height 31 
eet. 
IVY LOGAN. N.B. A rich deep scintillating electric blue, a shade that 
we have sought for some time. One of the best real blues to date. 
MAMMOTH. N. B. The flowers are a lovely warm javender shade, liter- 
ally covering the plant. Long side sprays are ideal for cutting. Height 
5 to 6 feet. 
MT. RAINIER. N.A. A lovely pure white of the same type as Harring: 
ton’s Pink and as fine a white as that variety is a pink. Plants cov- 
ered during September with large, pure white double flowers. Height 
4 feet. 
MRS. RAYNOR. N.A. Another new red Aster that many claim is the 
best. You will like both Mrs. Raynor and Beechwood Challenger. 
Height 3 to 4 feet. 
RED ROVER. N. B. We have grown this Aster for some 10 years and 
we believe it to be the most profuse and dependable bloomer of all 
the red-toned Asters. Beechwood Challenger is a true red while Red 
Rover is a reddish pink. 
SUNSET. N.B. Plant nicely shaped, free flowering, and grows to a 
height of about 3 feet. 
ST. EGWIN. N.B. A medium to dwarf pink seldom growing over 18 
inches. The plant forms a perfect dome covered with hundreds of 
bright pink blossoms. Often a single stem can be cut with over 500 
lossoms. 
VICTOR. N.B. The dwarfest of all dwarfs, and exceedingly pretty. The 
flowers are large and of a beautiful clear lavender-blue. Fine for the 
rock garden or for a border plant.

Aquilegia or Columbine 
The Aquilegias or Columbines are among the most elegant 
of the hardy perennial plants. They do well in full sun, but 
are best suited to semi-shady locations. They are most com- 
monly used in the long-spurred mixtures which cover a wide 
range of soft, delicate, distinct shades. 
Some distinct varieties have been developed. Groups of a single 
variety may be planted to produce desired color effects.

SIBERIAN IRIS 
The Siberian Irises are very graceful and are much used in landscape 
work as the plants with their rich, upright growth and grass-like foliage 
add very much materially to the beauty of any planting in which, they 
are used. Wonderful to use about water pools, bird walks, etc. Per- 
fectly hardy. 
In our show room we usually plant clumps of Siberian Iris around 
our bird baths. We receive more orders for this Siberian Iris from our 
visitors who see it in bloom than we often do during a whole season 
when we depend upon the descriptions in our catalog for our orders. 
Siberian Iris works nicely with other flowers for bouquet work.
