EARLY GIANTS 
FOUR WEEKS EARLIER THAN CALIFORNIA. GIANTS 
The earliest of the long stemmed Giant Flowering ~ 
Asters. Fully four to five weeks earlier than California — 
Giants although not quite so tall, about 2 ft. The flowers 
are of huge size up to 5 inches across and of wonderful 
substance, with long petals that fluffily curl across each 
other creating exquisite blooms. Strong stems grand for 
cutting and the colors are enchanting. Zz 
4 This type is much better than California Giants because 
it is far earlier to bloom, just as large and beautiful with 
same growing habits and strong stems and perhaps best 
of all, is Wilt-resistant.
