For New Gardeners 
F you do not already belong to your local Garden Club, we strongly 
urge you to join and become an active member. Also, attend all 
the lectures on horticultural subjects you can. The knowledge 
and inspiration you gain from these associations will be reflected 
to a large extent in your own garden. 
If you have a favorite flower or plant, we suggest that you make 
a special effort to become an expert grower and collector of that favorite, 
no matter what type of plant it is. Try raising new and improved kinds 
from seed through hybridising. We owe thanks to many hobby-gardeners 
for a great number of the finest Roses, Peonies, Gladioli and Irises. There 
is a decided thrill in witnessing the first unfolding of a lovely new seedling.
