The introduction of a Wilt-resistant strain of Asters of recent years 
has helped tremendously in restoring this beautiful flower to popular 
favor as a garden plant. Up until the time of the origination of this re- 
sistant strain, garden enthusiasts were becoming discouraged trying to 
grow Asters outdoors with the wilt-disease so prevalent. The appearance 
of this new strain has again awakened interest in the culture of Asters.
