Karliest. Hardiest 
Glistening White 
NORTH STAR (1-41 C.K.). Here in New England earliness and hardiness 
are of first importance. North Star has these qualities. Mid-September 
finds the plant covered with cascades of pure, glistening white, single blos- 
soms entirely free of the mal-formation usual in the early kinds. Further, 
this clean white color is retained for a long period. It is a husky, 2% ft. 
densely growing plant that seems to improve with age \ 
your plant until the second year.
