ASTERS In Charming Colors 
All Prices Postpaid 
ASTERS (A). The asters are now among the most 
interesting, beautiful and satisfactory of flowers; 
late years have added charming new colors and 
gigantic size to the kinds now being grown in 
this country. They thrive and flower throughout 
the entire summer and there is hardly a prettier 
sight than a bed of asters in full bloom. The aster 
is of easy culture and when started from seed 
should be sown in March or April in the hotbed, 
greenhouse, or in boxes, and when the plants 
have three or four leaves transplant to the open, 
18 inches apart each way. 
Wilt Resistant Varieties. Wilt is a disease which 
causes much trouble to aster growers. It may 
occur at any stage. There seems to be no method 
of control and all that growers can do is to safe- 
guard against this disease by planting Wilt Re- 
sistant Strains. We recommend that you plant 
only Wilt Resistant Strains.
