Wholesale Prices for Florists and Market Gardeners
To our Customers:
This year we are better equipped than ever before to serve
you. We value your patronage, and hope we may continue to
receive your orders.
For eighty-two years Vicks Extra Value Seeds have been
widely used by the Florists and Market Gardeners of America.
They know Vicks quality, and Vicks service. Experience has
proved to them that Vicks Seeds ‘‘Grow the best crops the
earth produces.”
The majority of our customers order from us year after year.
They rely upon us to give them the high quality of seeds they
need to make a success of their business.
Additional to the large number of orders we receive from
these old customers, to whom we owe our sincere thanks for
helping us build up our immense business, we welcome orders
from those who have not previously dealt with us.
Trustworthy Seeds
Experienced Florists and Market Gardeners everywhere
realize that the first essential to success is the use of the best
seed obtainable. It surely is poor policy to take a chance on the
quality of the seed from which you hope to make your profits.
During all the years Vicks Extra Quality Seeds have been on
the market, they have enjoyed an enviable reputation.
Many New Varieties
We have had an important part in the development and in-
troduction of many of the best varieties of Flowers and
Vegetables in use today. We also are in constant touch with
other seed specialists, and after checking values and comparing
qualities, we are able to offer the best stocks obtainable.
We are offering this year the largest number of new worth-
while varieties it has ever been our privilege to list in a single
season. Additional to the information in this Wholesale Cata-
log, you will find complete descriptions of these varieties in
our 1932 Vicks Garden and Floral Guide. Be sure to get a copy
of this valuable Book.

ROCHESTER, N. Y.
“‘The Flower City”’
VICKS ASTER BOOK FOR FLORISTS
1203—Heart of France
Our Most Popular Novelty
Here is one of our varieties that is now catalogued by nearly
every seedsman in America as well as abroad. Its popularity is
ever increasing, making it a “‘record seller’? with both seedsmen
and market growers.
When we introduced this variety during the World War, the then
French Ambassador, afterwards President of France, sent us a
letter of appreciation that this beautiful flower had been named in
honor of his country.
It is the best pure red Aster ever introduced without any trace
of a bluish or purple cast found so often in red varieties. Heart of
France opens red as the purest ruby, deepens with age and re-
tains its remarkable beauty to the very end. The petals appear
strikingly changeable, showing now a glow and sheen quite unique,
now a soft warm velvety texture. In any light, natural or artificial,
Heart of France is startlingly beautiful and will command instant
admiration.
The flowers which are large and full to the very center are borne
in masses on strong plants of branching type and very robust
habit. Long and strong stems, having very few laterals, add
greatly to the value of this variety. The plants begin to bloom
quite early in the season and are at their height with the mid-
season varieties. They retain their brilliancy and luster for a
longer period than almost any other color.
The marvelous satiny sheen and luster on some petals and the
velvety softness of others are faithfully reproduced in this photo-
graph.
1/16 oz. 20c; % oz. 35c; 14 oz. 60c; 1% oz. $1.00; 1 oz. $1.75
1202—Black Prince Aster
Black Prince is a California-developed Aster, belonging to the
Beauty Class, of which it has all the desirable qualities. The plants
are of broadly branching type, yielding an abundance of flower
_stems which are strong, stiff and fairly long. The flowers are of
medium size and of good quality. Black Prince is a blue black as
compared with Vicks Black Knight which is a maroon black. For
those who plan to have a wide selection of colors and classes, we
recommend Black Prince.

America.

OTHER OUTSTANDING VARIETIES
For wide range of color, beauty of flowers,
general usefulness and popularity, no other
annual flower in cultivation compares with the
highly developed American Asters, nine-tenths
of which were introduced by us.

1240—Giant California Sunshine Asters
With this variety we present to our friends and customers a wonder-
ful improved strain of Anemone-Flowered Asters, the original type of
which had been introduced as Sunshine Asters several years ago in
Europe. The flowers of our strain are much larger than those of the
original one, are true Anemone-Flowered, and of excellent form and
substance. Another feature is the sturdier, upright growth of the
plants and the extra long stems which make our Giant California
Sunshine Asters foremost cut flowers. Plants 2 to 2% feet tall.
We recommend this type highly to both florists and home gardeners,
as we consider it one of the finest cut-flower Asters yet introduced. The
illustration on this page does only partly justice to the beauty of the
flowers.
We offer Giant California Sunshine Asters in mixture only which
contains many fine pastel shades including flesh, pink, lavender,
violet and also white, which colors are in wonderful contrast to the
creamy white tubular center florets.
Vy oz. 85c; 14 oz. $1.50; 1 oz. $4.50
1209—Vicks Silvery Pink
1210—Vicks Silvery Rose
These exquisitely beautiful flowers derive their distinction from the
delicate silvery sheen which overlays the predominating color. Vicks
Silvery Pink appears a warm, glowing pink, while, as the light reflects
upon them, the tips of the petals have a silvery sheen which makes
them appear almost white, the whole effect of which is indescribably
beautiful. Vicks Silvery Rose—each petal is a combination of deep
lilac rose, almost cerise, very delicately threaded with white. The
threads are so tiny as to give the petals a silvery sheen, and not the
impression of a striped variety. Even the slightest change in light will
change the petals from a rich glowing rosy cerise to a silvery rose.
The plants of both of these varieties are very vigorous. Stems are
long and the flowers large. Very desirable for cutting.
1209 Silvery Pink, in packets only, each 40c; two for 75c
1210 Vicks Silvery Rose: 1/16 oz. 20c; 1% oz. 35c; 14 oz. 65c; 14 oz. $1.20;
1 oz. $2.00
VICKS THREE “PEERLESS” ASTERS
1205—Vicks Peerless Blue
This is the nearest approach to a blue yet developed in Asters. For
many years Vicks Lavender has been called by many “‘Azure Blue,” a
very fitting name, but we have with ‘Peerless Blue’ developed a
deeper, darker shade, distinctly different from Vicks Lavender, but
somewhat lighter than Purple. Peerless Blue is a splendid addition to
our list of colors in the Late Branching class. Plants are very large and
strong, and produce an abundance of flower stems of good length.
The blooms are large and fully double.
Packets only: each 20c; 2 for 35c
1206—Vicks Peerless Pink
This is unquestionably the finest pink variety in the late flowering,
branching class. The plants are of very sturdy growth and free branch-
ing habit, growing about 2 feet tall. The large flowers, which average
4 inches in diameter, are ball-shaped and double to the very center.
The arrangement of the petals is most artistic, forming a slight whirl
in the center. The color is a rich warm pink of unusual purity and
beauty.
Vicks Peerless Pink Aster has been awarded countless prizes when-
ever exhibited by professionals or private growers.
VQ oz. 25c; 14 oz. 40c; 1 oz. $1.25
1207—Vicks Peerless Yellow
By far the most satisfactory yellow Aster yet produced. The flowers
are large, remarkably full and ball-shaped, with centers deeply covered
with curled and twisted florets. Every flower will come a beautiful,
true, light yellow. The plants are of branching type and very vigorous.
A single plant will frequently have from twenty to thirty good stems
of sufficient length, with flowers of ample size for fancy cut-flower
purposes. So numerous and large are the flowers, that the plants are
completely covered like a golden dome. On account of crop shortage,
the seed is very scarce, so that orders for this variety will be accepted
only with orders for other varieties.
Packets only: each 40c; 2 for 75c
It’s not your investment in
seeds that counts—it’s the
returns from it. Vicks High-
Grade Quality Seeds will give
you best results.

Vicks Royal Aster
Page Six
Vicks Royal
A Splendid Early Variety
Superior to Queen of the Market
Without.doubt one of the best, by many considered the very
best, general purpose, early Aster ever introduced. The flower
stems start from the plant close to the ground, are free from
laterals and consequently give their full strength to the produc-
tion of numerous large, handsomely proportioned flowers. It will
come into bloom almost if not quite as early as Queen of the
Market, but is immensely superior to that in size, quality and
productiveness. Possessing all of the characteristics of Vicks Late
Branching, but blooming much earlier, it will succeed because
of its vigor and productiveness under conditions which would
be fatal to most other early varieties. A sure money-maker.
Royals are especially well adapted to growing under glass.

Queen of the Market
One of the few varieties offered by us which we did not
introduce. Originally a European variety. Our stock is American-
grown and superior to the original type. It is extra early, very
vigorous and yields large, double, salable blooms in great abun-
dance. By sowing inside, transplanting to pots and transferring
to open ground when safe, flowers can be had in May or June,
depending on latitude and climate.

1143 All Colors Mixed: 14 oz. 15c; 4/4 0z. 25c; 1 oz. 85c
1204—Vicks Lavender Gem
This is the largest extra early lavender in existence. When
the flower first opens it is a delicate lavender, deepening with age.
The flower is always full double, showing no tendency to produce
single or semi-double blooms. The feathery effect of the Ostrich-
Feather type, to which it belongs, is enhanced by the fact that it
bears a large proportion of long, partly tubular, florets that are
irregularly cut and slashed, so that the flower looks like a ragged
Chrysanthemum.
Comes into bloom about the same time as Queen of the
Market, but the flowers are usually larger and bring higher
prices.

VICKS FAMOUS EARLY ASTERS
1208—Vicks Pink Enchantress
One of the Best Varieties in Many Years
Anyone who has grown our Pink Enchantress knows that all the
good things we have said about this fine Aster have been fully
warranted. Among its other good qualities it has proven a very
desirable variety to grow under glass.
The color is a soft delicate pink, like Pink Enchantress Carna-
tion, and does not fade. The flower is unusually lasting, both as a
cut flower and on the plant, and is always fully double; the petals
are of medium length and very broad. Those toward the center
incurve very regularly, while gradually toward the outer edge the
petals stand out more and more until those on the outside recede
from the center, thus increasing the diameter of the flower. The
general effect of the loosely arranged, delicately colored flower is
indescribably soft and pleasing.
Vicks Pink Enchantress is upright in habit, as distinguished from
the branching type. The plants are very vigorous, and the stems
long, strong and graceful. A cut-flower Aster of great value.
1/16 oz. 20c; 14 oz. 30c; 14 oz. 50c; 1 oz. $1.50
Vicks Triumph Comet Aster
A magnificent new class of mid-season Asters, with extra long
stems and large fluffy, fully double flowers of the finest type. In
season, Vicks Triumph Comet Asters are about the same as Vicks
Royals. Splendid Mikado or Rochester flowers of the best type, on
tall, upright plants. A great improvement over any Upright Comet
heretofore offered, in size of plant, length of stem, and in size and
perfection of flower.

Early Beauty Aster
A recently developed early strain from the Late Beauty Aster
which comes into bloom in September and October. Distinguished
by their very large, densely double flowers on unusually long
stem. About the same season as Vicks Late Branching. We offer
seven colors.
1037 Azure Blue or Dark Lavender 1038 Carmine Rose
1039 Crimson 1040 Peach Blossom 1041 Purple 1042 Rose

Start some of your seed early, indoors
or in hot-beds, to have strong plants
ready for planting outdoors after the
weather has settled and the nights
have become warm.

VICKS BRANCHING ASTERS
Our Aster seed is grown from the best stock
seed which is improved from year to year. We
do not keep with the crowd, we keep ahead,
which accounts for the fact that the names
“‘Vicks’’ and ‘‘Asters’’ are inseparable.
Vicks Late Branching Aster
The Peerless Queen of Asters
The popularity of Vicks Branching Asters continues to grow. Today
more seed of these Asters is sold than of all other American-grown
strains. While many other varieties are needed in any well propor-
tioned crop of Asters, few florists could afford to be without a large
planting of this exceptionally fine strain. Vicks Branching Asters are
catalogued by many reliable seedsmen, from whom it would be per-
fectly safe for florists to order. There are imitators, however, against
whose worthless substitutes we caution our customers and friends.
Bear in mind that Vicks Branching has steadily improved so that
it surpasses the type sold only a few years ago, and is still the very
best late Aster, and remains unsurpassed in those qualities which are
demanded of a high-class, quick-selling, commercial variety.
Plants are extra large, of strong and vigorous growth, yielding a
profusion of flowers from the middle of August until heavy frost. The
flowers are of extraordinary size, and stand erect on long graceful
stems.

1026 All Colors Mixed: 14 oz. 15c; 1/4 oz. 25c; 1 oz. 85c
Vicks Early Branching
This excellent Aster is similar in character of plant and flower to the
Late Branching, but blooms about a week or ten days earlier, enabling
the grower to market his Asters in advance of the main crop of Late
Branching, at a time when there is a scarcity of good Asters, with
prices correspondingly high.
The flower stems are comparatively devoid of side shoots, enabling
the entire vitality of the plant to go into the development of the few
long, graceful stems, crowned by immense double flowers. Practically
every bloom is an exhibition flower. What is needed today is not more,
but larger and better Asters. Very sparse seeding.

VICKS ROCHESTER ASTERS
Named at Request of Rochester Chamber of Commerce
This foremost type of Aster has originated in our Mikado Aster We have specialized in Asters longer, and introduced more varieties, and
over which it is a remarkable improvement. Although similar in Oe ares, than Suyio tier seedomien in America, We pride DUIS
c i O have the finest strains o sters that can be had anyw nere, and the ever
appearance, the flowers are much larger, of heavy substance, and s y
increasing demand for our seeds proves their outstanding quality.
always double to the very center. The long narrow petals are at-
tractively curled and twisted in the center, whereas the ray or
outer petals are gracefully recurved, all in all making the flower
resemble the large shaggy Chrysanthemum offered by florists.
The plants are of vigorous growth and well branched, carrying
their flowers on long, stiff stems. This, as well as the beauty of the
flowers, makes Vicks Rochester Asters foremost cut flowers.
The blooming season is about the same as that of the Branching
Comet or Crego, but a little earlier than Vicks Late Branching.
1152—Lavender Pink Rochester
Official Flower of the City of Rochester
4 Although of rather recent introduction, the popularity of this
lovely Aster is steadily increasing. The beautiful clear lavender-
pink color of its attractive, gigantic flowers makes it a favorite
with both commercial Aster growers and home gardeners. The
flower illustrated on this page was over 61% inches in diameter.

1150—Heart of Rochester
Our Newest Rochester Aster
Of the same rich ruby red color as Heart of France, the most
popular red Aster ever grown. These two, Heart of France and
Heart of Rochester, are the only true ruby red Asters found in any
class either in America or Europe, and, therefore, are given the
preference over all other red varieties found in Asters. This
variety must be seen to be fully appreciated.
Packets only: each, 40c; 2 for 75c
The following varieties complete the color range found to date in
Vicks Rochester Asters. Each and every one is a beauty in itself,
and so will make it worth your while to grow some plants of all of
them, as all are sure to find a ready market. As our strains are re-
selected year after year and most carefully rogued, your planting
of Vicks seeds will prove a money-making proposition.

Giant Branching Comet or Crego Asters
Our strain of this lovely variety produces only double flowers of
the true ragged Comet type, and is the result of untiring efforts
carried on by us for many years; and we are justly proud of it. The
plants resemble the Branching Asters in size and habit and in season
of bloom. Giant Branching Comet Asters are exceptionally fine for
cutting and always will bring a good price.

Vicks Perfection Asters
Splendid Mid-Season Uprights
We consider this the finest upright mid-season Aster in cultivation.
The flowers are exquisite in form, and the plants equal in height
those of the late upright Asters.
The petals of the opening flower fold gracefully toward the center
like enormous peonies, while the outer surface of the petals shows a
glow or sheen characteristic of some of our newest Asters like Heart
of France.
In mature flowers, the outer rows of petals are straight, but the
center is completely covered by a mass of curved and twisted petals
regularly arranged in a sort of curl or whorl. The broad petals are
slightly folded lengthwise, making them appear rather narrow.
The plants are extremely vigorous, with unusually broad, dark
green leaves and stout stems. They carry from six to twelve large
flowers on long stems free from side branches.

We are offering this mixture to our friends in the belief that it is
one of the most valuable mixtures which any florist can use. The seed

ing new varieties is carried on. You can imagine the wonderful
assortment of types and colors which this mixture contains.

VICKS FAMOUS KING ASTERS
The “King Asters” represent quite a distinct and valuable class or
type with their many outstanding qualities which make them favorites
with many Aster lovers. Plants are of vigorous growth and sturdy
habit, growing 1% to 2 feet tall.
The fine, large, substantial flowers, which are very double, are pro-
duced in great profusion on long, stiff stems, which accounts much for
their popularity as cut flowers. The petals are long, narrow and
folded lengthwise, being more or less quilled, which gives the large
flowers a bold and striking appearance. In season they are rather
early, coming into bloom shortly after the Royal Aster.
King Asters are ideal for both market growers and home gardeners
as they are equally desirable for bedding and cutting purposes. The
flowers, when cut, have an unusual keeping quality, lasting longer
than any other class. The purity of their gorgeous colors, combined
with the exquisite form and texture of the graceful, charming flowers,
gives King Asters an unusual distinction.

1201—Black Knight Aster
The darkest Aster yet produced. There is a delicate sheen of deep
red which prevents the flower from being a dead black, thus giving it a
rich velvety beauty and enhancing its usefulness and value. It har-
monizes beautifully with flowers of almost any color or combination of
colors. While it wins instant admiration alone, either in bouquets or in
garden planting, in combination with other colors it is not only strik-
ingly attractive itself, but brings out and glorifies the beauty of the
other flowers. Black Knight belongs to the Early Branching class. The
plant is extremely vigorous, stems of good length for cutting, and has
few lateral side buds. Flowers are of good size and well filled.

Vicks Autumn Glory, the Best Late Pink Aster Ever Grown
It is our constant endeavor to produce varieties 1200—Vicks Autumn Glory Aster
suitable for all seasons, circumstances of locality
and trade and every individual taste. That is the An Extraordinarily Beautiful, New,
Anse for the rapidly growing demand for our Very Late Branching Aster
Pure seashell pink. While similar in color to Semple’s Pink, with
which all growers are familiar, it has a better and more substantial
flower, a deeper and longer-keeping color, larger and stronger type of
plant. Its most distinctive characteristic and chief claim for recogni-
tion, however, is the fact that it is later in season than any of the other
varieties.
While it cannot take the place of Silvery Pink, or Peerless Pink
Branching and others of like color, all of which are earlier, it supple-
ments them by blooming after the other Late Asters are past their
prime, and before the early Crysanthemums are ready, thus prolong-
ing the Aster season two weeks, and coming at a time when good
flowers are extremely scarce. Vicks Autumn Glory is a money-maker
for the commercial grower, and a delight to the amateur. It comes uni-
formly true to color and type. The flowers are very double and are
borne on stems of unusual length.

Improved California Giants
California Giants possess all the good points an up-to-date Aster
should have—large, double flowers, long stems, and excellent keeping
qualities. They are a splendid mid-season to late flowering variety, the
plants of which grow 21% to 3 feet high. The long, wiry branches meas-
ure 18 to 24 inches in length, thus making them one of the most de-
sirable cut flower varieties on the market. The beauty and size of the
flowers, 5 inches and over being not unusual, are quite outstanding.
The broad, long petals are loosely arranged, curled and twisted much
in the same way as the Giant Chrysanthemums which we so often
admire in florists’ window displays. Our strain has been perfected in
every regard so that it can easily compare with those of other growers.
The separate varieties which we offer below are true to type and
color. Our mixture is properly blended so that each color will be in
perfect harmony with the balance of the mixture.

Zinnias
Zinnias, because of their excellent
bedding, cutting and lasting quali-
ties have long been a general favor-
ite with both florists and home
gardeners. They were found in our
grandmothers’ gardens, although
not in such a wide range of color or
with such large and manifold
flowers. The continuous efforts of
plant hybridizers have been awarded
with flowers of exquisite beauty
heretofore unknown.
The Giant Mammoth varieties
produce large, almost ball-shaped
flowers with petals arranged in
shingle-like form. The colors are
rich and bright. Dahlia-Flowered
Zinnias are still larger and come in
the finest pastel shades. The shape
of their flowers reminds one of the
Queen of the Fall—The Dahlia.
Giants of California Zinnias are
large and rather flat with broad,
loosely arranged petals. All of them

thin rind is dark green, mottled and
striped blackish green. Excellent for
local markets but not suited for long
distance shipping.
