ASM asters 
Wilt Resistant Varieties 
With the development of Wilt Resistant Asters it is now possible to grow Asters successfully even though your soil has been planted to Asters 
previously. We now have an almost complete line of these Wilt Resistant Asters which in color, size and form are equal to the non-resistant 
strain. Sow in seed boxes from February to June and transplant as soon as the plants have attained sufficient size. For further planting in¬ 
structions see inside front cover.
