ASTERS—Wilt Resistant 
The Aster wilt disease is caused by a parasite fungus 
which, when once in the soil, will attack any Aster 
planted in the place at any time. Only through the use 
of wilt-resistant strains is it possible to grow Asters 
more than one year in the same soil. We offer the 
following wilt-resistant varieties: 
Aurora, Golden Sheaf
