Culture—Dig a wide trench to a depth of 12 inches and after breaking up the bottom of trench fill in with several inches of 
peat or leaf mold to which add a liberal amount of bone meal; fill in the balance of the trench with good top soil. Tamp the 
soil down firmly and water thoroughly to the base. Let stand a few days until moderately moist. Never put the seed in too 
wet soil. Rake off the surface nice and smooth, make rows and plant seed about once inch deep, and two inches apart. Do not 
water until all the seed is up, at least half an inch out of the soil. (Nine-tenths of the failures are caused by watering too 
soon.). Thin out to at least six inches apart and train on wire netting or strings when plants are five or six inches high. 
Applications of complete chemical fertilizers during flowering period will add to the length of stem and size of blossoms. 
Keep well cultivated and water only as needed during the blooming period, as excessive moisture will cause the buds to drop.
