Wilt Resistant Tomatoes. 
Tomato wilt is a disease that 
causes the plant to gradual¬ 
ly die about the time the first 
fruit is half grown; this di¬ 
sease is easily recognized by 
examining a cross section of 
a stem, as a plant with wilt 
has a brown to black ring 
surrounding the pith. If you 
have been disappointed in 
growing tomatoes because of 
this disease you will be in¬ 
terested in these hardy Wilt 
Resistant varieties.
