WHITE OSTRICH
PLUME
Plants of strong branch-
ing growth, 15 to IS inches
in height. The large size
of the flowers, the fine
feathery appearance, long
stiff stem, and early flow-
ering habit combine to
make it most desirable for
decorations.

bearing a very large extremenly double llower with
incurved petals. The broad silvery petals are suffused with soft delicate pink.

EARLY SNOWDRIFT
I.S CERTAINLY THE EARLIEST ASTER IN CULTIVATION— The lea\es an
narrow and sparse, and the branches spring from close to the ground. The eiitir.'
energy of the plant seems given to the production of twelve to twenty long, slender,
upright stems, crowned with immense feathery flowers. The long, recurved pet:.!-;
give the flowers an exceedingly graceful effect, heightened in many -oases by the
ragged, irregular character of the petals in the center of the flower. The flowers all
come perfectly double. Pkt., 150 seeds, 8 cts.
ROYAL PURPLE
A new strain of Late Branching Aster, growing about fifteen inches high. Irs
habit of growth is entirely distinct, the stems growing directly from the ground, ami
not on side shoots from the main stem like other varieties. Nine out of twelve
liowers are suflSciently large for cutting, either for house decoration or florists' u-^c
A medium early bloomer, continuing in flower until late in the fall. The flowers arc
large and full to the center; petals tine and somewhat incurved; color bright purxlc.
Ikt., 1.50 seeds, 8 cts.
MIKADO PINK 'ROCHESTER '
In size and beauty the Rochester is equal to the Crego Aster. It v-omes into
bloom about ten days earlier. The color is a most exquisite shade of lavender pink.
The petals are long, narrow and curled. The vigorous growth of this .aster makes
possible its long slender upright stems, giving the plant an exceedingly graceful

appearance as it supports its 1.") to 20 immense feathery flowers. Pkt., 150 seeds. 8 cts.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
