Cait’s Chorobred Asters 
ANNUAL -- Blooms June to October 
CULTURE "A” 
Asters will thrive in most any situation, but prefer one in which they 
get the morning sun. It is well to remember that any extra care taken 
in the preparation of the soil is repaid by finer plants, larger blooms 
with longer stems, and more profuse flowering. They should have an 

open position, and prefer a good, heavy loamy soil, enriched with a Aster 
liberal quantity of bone meal, or garden fertilizer. When wanted for Super Giant 
Queen of the cutting with long stems they should be set out not closer than 12 ET REE 
Market Aster inches apart in rows. 
The varieties offered represent the finest Asters introduced to date including many of the new wilt-resistant 
varieties that make Asters easy to grow, and they should be in every garden where high quality is appreciated. 
The early sorts begin blooming in July, followed by the midseason varieties, which are usually at their best in 
August and September. 
To destroy the black Aster beetle, which is the Aster’s worst enemy, use arsenate of lead.
