The Best Gatlin Asters 
In so far as possible we offer you only Wilt-Resistant Seed. This will make more 
robust and thrifty plants, far less susceptible to disease than the ordinary Aster Seed. 
Plant your Asters in new rich soil and keep them well cultivated. Grow them in 
beds and borders to produce a mass effect and set them 1 foot apart each way; if you 
want extra-long stems for cutting, they should have 18 inches of room: Good seed 
produces the best flowers. Our seed is grown for us by men who have made a life- 
time study of Aster-seed growing.

and opens fully with the midseason varieties.
