THE JOSEPH F. MARTIN COMPANY, PAINESVILLE, OHIO & 
Hardy Asters 
For the showy decorative planting or for cut flower purposes, the generous 
ARTEMESIA 
Boundlessly useful, for the border for spotting in 
shrub plantings, and particularly, for filling in 
floral effects. 
SILVER KING. Bright silver-colored stems and 
foliage are of great value for florists’ fillers, can 
also be dried for winter use.

Rooted Runners — Per 100, $5.00 
SILVER QUEEN, (Martin’s Selection). This will 
dry just like Silver King. It is bushy and carries 
an abundance of hard silver seeds that add to 
its effect. Though not as light, it is our judg- 
ment that it is much more impressive than the 
Silver Queen and more desirable than Silver 
King in many instances.

Rooted Runners, Per 100, $5.00 
BOLTONIA

der. Excellent for cutting. Grows four to six

growth. It rises to a height of 4 feet and re- 
quires no staking. Beautiful snow white flowers

erect stems throughout September and October. 
In a mass planting it creates the effect of a 
bank of snow rising from the ground.
