Scores of new hardy Asters have been introduced during the past 3 years, but few of them, when tried, possessed sufficient merit to warrant us in offering them.

The habit is quite distinct, forming a dense luft of long green leaves, from which issue many leafless stems about 12 inches high, bearing, during Tune and Jul)', when few varieties are in flower, massive flowers .3 inches in diameter, of a pleasing shade of bluish-violet, with golden centre. 25 cts. each ; $ per doz.
