摘要
Marshal Pinckney Wilder was an outstanding horticulturist who was a founding member of the American Pomological Society. He served as president from its founding in 1848 through 1885. He was born in 1798 and died in 1886. He was a leader in his community and his state of residence, Massachusetts. His love of horticulture was extensive, as he tested and conducted breeding on several ornamental species. However, his greatest love was fruits, particularly pears. He was honored by the Society with the establishment of the Wilder Medal in 1873, its highest honor.
