Of the general beauty of these flowers it is unnecessary to spealc; the immense world-wide demand for them shows their adaptability for any climate; and coming into bloom, as they do, when most other flowers are fading nway, enhances their value. For the best results the ground for the cultivation of Asters cannot be too richly prepared, although they will give satisfactory returns on any ordinary garden soil. LATE BRAISCHIXG. An Aster of American origin, which for size of bloom, freedom of flowering and other good qualities we have never seen equaled. The plants form strong, branching bushes, fully 2 feet high, bearing profusely on long, strong stems handsome Chrysan- themum-like flowers, many being over 6 inches in diameter. The form of the flowers makes them particularly desirable as cut flowers. They come into flower from two lo three weeks later than most sorts, filling in the gap between the general run of Asters and Chrysanthemums. (See cut.) PER PKr.
