Asters 
All Asters listed here can be grown by the home gardener wherever 
Asters are popular. The non-resistant Giants require care to avoid wilt 
infested ground, but yield tremendous “show” blooms for the careful 
gardener. Most of these Asters are also in great demand as florist’s com- 
mercial varieties, especially those marked ‘‘f’’. In any case, seed we offer 
is of highest florist quality.
