PINO’‘S SELECTED FLOWER SEEDS 3 
ASTER + Wilt-resistant Strain 
The most pretentious Aster improvement program that has been 
undertaken is the development of wilt-resistant strains. Although not 
novelties in the true sense of the word, we consider these Wilt- 
resistant Asters among the most noteworthy introductions of our 
long experience in the seed business. Only through the use of re- 
sistant stocks is it possible successfully to grow Asters more than 
one year in the same soil. 
Princess (Wilt-resistant) 
An ideal type for florists. 3-314 in. flowers on long stems have 
crested center that remains full when flower is completely open, 
surrounded by multiple rows of guard petals. An exceedingly good 
shipper. Fine for home gardeners because of high wilt resistance. 
Plants 2-214 ft. tall, branching habit, blooms in late August.
