We believe the list which follows contains the most desirable sorts now in cultivation. The seed we send out was grown by experienced specialists, both American and European. H<*»rf nf Ffs*nr*» 2 ft* Midseason. The best red nedri U1 rrcuice Aster ever introduced. The petals are of a velvety texture and a warm- glow- ing color which is retained to the end.

The Early sorts begin blooming in July, followed by the Midseason kinds, which flower during August; then the Late-Flowering varieties, which are at their best through September. It is quite easy, therefore, with a little care in the selection of the varieties, to have Asters in flower from the first day in July until hard frost.
