(N^veltv, 'lo.) Thisgrand ' novelty IS the hrst break from the Grand White Hercules Aster which we introthiced some years ago. The coli>r is a spk ndid delicate rosy lilac. The plants are compact and senii-ilwarf, not exceeding 15 to 20 inches in height. In addition to the enormous flower of the main stem, this Aster pro- duces five to long-petaled lateral flowers, measuring b'AtoG'; inches across, of the most perfect form. The Hercules Aster is one of the grandest varieties of the Oiant HohenzolU rn type ever intro- duced, and we are sure that this variety will find favor with all lov- ers of good Asters. (See illustration.) Pkt. 25 cts., 5 for jfi. Aster, Improved Early Branching Semple. 1,^^"^^'^' A seedling from that grand old variety Semple's Pink, which on ac- count of its earliiu ss will certainly become eciually, and we predict, more popular than its parent. The color is of the same shade of bright pink and the habit of the plant and form of flowers are identical, being of the same strong, robust growth and branching habit. Its greatest value is in its earliness, bloom- ing as it does ten days earlier than Semple's Pink. Pkt. 15 cts , 2 pkts. for 25 cts., Uoz. $1. Aster, Elegance, (^''j^ei- ' ty, oq.)
