It opens red as the ruby, deepens with age, and retains its remarkable beauty to the very end. The flowers are large and full. The plants are of branching type, strong, and have few laterals. It blooms with the mid-sea- son varieties. Heart of France will supplant all other reds of any type because of its marvel- ous beauty and long period of bloom. 2 ft. Per pkt. 10 cts. WHITE BRANCHING. A new variety of Ameri- can origin, of branching habit, which, for size of bloom, freedom of flowering, and other good qualities, we have never seen equalled. The plants form strong, robust bushes, about 2 feet high, bearing profusely on long, strong stems handsome Chyrsanthemum-like flowers, many being over 6 inches in diameter. The form of the flowers makes them perfectly desirable as cut flowers. They come into flower from two to three weeks later than most sorts, filling in the gap between the general run of Asters and Chrysanthemums. Per pkt. 5 cts. BRANCHING MIXED. Similar in habit and growth as he White Branching, but of different colors, such as pink, lavender, crimson, blue and white. Very fine and beautiful; we can recommend this very highly. Per pkt. 5 cts. FINE MIXED. Ebbracing a great many varie- ties and colors. Per pkt. 5 cts. AMERICAN BEAUTY. Is similar in type of flower and growth to the well known Branching Aster. Has extra long stems, fine for cut flowers. The flowers are fully double, of a lovely shade of bright carmine pink, almost identical with the American Beauty Rose. Per pkt. 10 cts. Aster—Mikado Pink A fine new variety. Petals are narrow, very long and gracefully reflexed, making it the fluffiest Aster we have ever seen. In color it is a most exquisite shade of shell pink. For a mid-season pink Aster it is without a rival. The plants are unusually vigorous, succeeding everywhere.
