Giant California SUNSHINE ASTERS 

3299 Single Rainbow Aster Pkt. l5c. 
Single Asters 3 to 4 inches across are more largely grown 
each season, and we do not know of any class of flowers so 
valuable for cutting as these when the days are shortening. 
The Rainbow is a great improvement on the original Chinese 
Aster; not only have larger flowers been attained, but our 
strain comes earlier into bloom. The plants are very free- 
growing and require spacing at least 2 to 244 feet to admit 
of full development of the flower-stems, which are often 18 
inches in length. The large daisy-like blossoms appear in 
the greater profusion and are exquisite in bouquets. 
Rainbow Single Asters 
Fraser’s Special Florist Strain 
Our strain has been very popular on the Los Angeler flower 
market for many years owing to its distinctive compact flow- 
ers with wider petals. It is naturally resistant to wilt and con- 
tains a balanced assortment of pink and lavender shades. 
Deep golden centers. 
3299 Rainbow Blend. W-R. Fine mixture of above rainbow 
colors. Pkt. 15c; Special Pkt. 35c; 1 oz. $1.00. 
Mr. Fraser’s Note: We consider the Giant California Sunshine 
Aster the world’s best. It comes only about 50% true to type. 
but the other 50% are usually large single Rainbow type of 
exquisite beauty. 
This is one of the most outstanding novelties for making 
lovely cut flower decorations which has been introduced in 
many years. It is a cross between the California Giants and 
the Dwarf Sunshine Aster. The plants grow three feet high, 
bearing their blossoms on long stems, making them fine for 
cutting. The individual blooms are enormous—four and five 
inches across—and have a lovely two-toned color effect with 
disk a creamy yellow, made up of miniature star-shaped 
florets and the encircling petals varying in shades of pink, 
apple blossom, deep rose, blue, and lavender, producing most 
beautiful contrasts. We know of no other flowers which draw 
more admiration in a bouquet or basket than these magnifi- 
cent Asters in the following separate colors.
