HOW TO MAINTAIN A GOOD FLOWER BED. Maintaining a good 
flower bed is not a particularly hard task, but it does require attention 
at the right time. Fertilizing should be done but not overdone. If Swift’s 
Vigoro Fertilizer is used you will get some very pleasing i-esults. Also 
TTuth’s Natural Plant Mulch is safe, and no danger for plant diseases 
or weed seeds. Maintain proper watering by being sure that the water 
soaks thoroughly into the soil.
