tant Aster yet developed. Flowers are of the large Giants of California type, while the 
plants are less tall, about 1% ft. in height, with strong heavy stems. This class is early 
blooming, coming into flower 4-6 weeks earlier than the Giants of California, that is during 
early to mid August. An exceptionally new class.

COSMOS EARLY DOUBLE SENSATION MIXED. Coming in colors of white, pink and crimson, this 
new double Cosmos is similar in height and other habit characteristics to the Early Single 
Sensation Cosmos. Equally as large as the single Sensation, the new double crested type will 
produce a large two-inch crested center—which makes it appear even more mammoth. The 
doubles percentage runs quite high as the seed of this novelty is all hand picked from double 
plants only.

CLEOME (Spiderflower) GIANT PINK QUEEN. (Silver Medal A. A. S. 1941.) Huge trusses of bright 
salmon pink top the long stems of this distinctly novel plant. Wherever it has been grown in 
various test gardens last summer, it has created outstanding interest and admiration, is easily 
grown from seed planted directly in the border or garden. It blooms abundantly from mid: 
summer to late fall, and is striking in the background of a border and for outlining a drive- 
way. As a cutflower it is delightful, combining especially well with lavender or blue.
