CULTURE 
Acid, hvimus, damp, loose 
(See chart on page 2) 
1. The roots feed at the surface—do 
not hoe or rake. Plant them properly and 
thereafter water and mulch as needed. 
2. Light shade, airy and open, gives 
best results. Only certain trees will do. 
The best are Oaks, Cherries, Magnolias 
and Birch. Their leaves make the best 
mulch. Avoid Beech and Maple.
