ecial Wayside Gardens P 
ant Food 
So many visitors coming to see our hardy plants in bloom, and noticing 
their sturdy growth and abundant, healthy foliage, were constantly ask¬ 
ing us what special plant food we used, and where they could get it, that 
finally we had to do something about it.

What It Is 
Bear in mind that this Spe¬ 
cial Plant Food of ours is a 
food and not just a stimu¬ 
lant that crowds the plants, 
causing soft growth, lack¬ 
ing in sturdiness. It’s a 
food that nourishes and in¬ 
vigorates the roots as well 
as the tops over an extend¬ 
ed period. 
Wayside Gardens Plant 
food remains available in 
the soil for a long time, 
slowly disintegrating. Never 
causes indigestion. It’s a 
food rich in organic matter 
that has all the merits of 
the best of rotted manures, 
and still is in a form as 
easy to use as the usual 
fertilizers. 
It has proven very result- 
ful for us in growing plen¬ 
ty of strong roots, sturdy 
stalks and an abundance of 
finely colored full sized 
blooms. 
How to Use It 
Wayside Gardens Special Food 
is easy to use. The directions 
are simple. The same as we 
follow. If your garden is an 
established one, apply twice a 
year, March first and Septem¬ 
ber first. Use 1? to 25 pounds 
for top dressing a space of 500 
square feet for hardy plants, 
rock plants, roses, annuals and 
other flowering plants, shrubs, 
and bulbs. 
In making a new garden, dou¬ 
ble the amount and mix with 
the soil. Planting may be done 
at once. No burning is possi¬ 
ble. For old lawns use 10 to 
25 pounds for top dressing 500 
square feet. In making new 
lawns use double the amount 
and mix with the soil. Seeding 
may be done at once. No 
burning effect will result. 
For potted plants, a 3-inch pot 
full of the food, mixed with a 
bushel of soil will give you 
splendid results. 
Wayside Gardens Plant Food is sold only in the fol¬ 
lowing states: Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, West Vir¬ 
ginia, Kentucky, Massachusetts, District of Columbia,
