Asters are the glory of New England gardens in August 
and September just when good flowers for cutting and gar- 
den display are wanted in masses. They are very different 
from other Summer blooming plants in their color ef- 
ect and there is a large number of different types in all of which similar 


colors have been produced. During the past few years Aster growers have 
" worked toward true wilt-resistant strains and while they cannot yet claim 
j perfection, the results have shown great improvement in this direction. 
N Throughout the following lists, the varieties which have been improved in 
this way are indicated by the following mark *, meaning Wilt-Resistant.
