1824—Early Giant Light Blue. Not only is this new aster a better shade of

For best results with asters, 
plant them in a spot that has 
fairly rich soil and some shade. 
Use “wilt-resistant” varieties if 
troubled with this disease and 
spray with DDT to check “yel- 
lows.” 
For a succession of bloom the 
Early Beauties are first; mid 
season varieties are American 
Branching, Cregos, Pompons and 
Victory Giants. The Early Giants 
Princess and Single are last to 
bloom.

Early Beauty Asters 
1900—Variety Mixture. One of the most de- 
sirable of the early flowering types with well 
formed flowers of good clear colors and excel- 
lent keeping qualities. Blooming with Cregos 
and American Branching the form of the 
flower is intermediate between these two. The 
mixture is made from white, pinks, lavender 
and purple.

Pompon Asters 
1100—Variety Mixture. One of the showiest 
asters for garden effect. The flowers resemble 
pompon chrysanthemums but they bloom 
earlier and have colors not available in those 
hardy plants. The mixture contains rose and 
lavender with white centers, scarlet and deep 
purple. Makes a very effective border about 
15 in. high.
