Your Flower 
Garden in May 
You can now plant out of doors without 
fear of cold weather, either in plant beds 
or borders, nearly all annual flower seeds, 
including Nasturtiums, Marigolds, Petunias, 
Zinnias, Verbenas, Phlox Drummondii, and 
many others. When the plants are 3 to 4 
inches tall thin them out or transplant. 
For a rainbow of loveliness be sure to in¬ 
clude Wood’s All America Prize Winners il¬ 
lustrated on this page. They were selected by 
authorities throughout America as the out¬ 
standing new flowers introduced by breeders 
anywhere in the world. Scarlet O’Hara Morn¬ 
ing Glory, the only flower to win the gold 
medal for two years, is a gorgeous climber. 
For edging your borders use Salmon Glory 
Phlox, Hollywood Star Petunia and Dwarf 
Double Globe Sweet Scented Nasturtiums. For 
height, plant Early Sunshine Marigold, Light 
Blue Early Giant Wilt-Resistant Aster and 
White Pantasy Zinnias. 
However, don’t forget your old favorites, 
such as Beauty of Oxford Hybrid Verbena, 
Wood’s Superb Mixed Cosmos and Larkspur. 
Now is also the best time to plant Dahlias 
and Gladiolas (described on page 14.) We 
strongly suggest that you take advantage of 
our special offer of one each of the eight out¬ 
standing DAHLIAS OF SPECIAL MERIT. 
For a succession of cut flowers this summer, 
plant Gladiolas every two weeks to July 1st. 
You can be sure to find all of your favorite 
shades in Wood’s Rainbow Collection. 
Spade the soil deeply and work in thorough¬ 
ly a well balanced plant food like Vigoro or 
Pairway, 2 to 4 pounds per 100 square feet, 
repeating the application every several weeks. 
If light sandy soil or heavy clay work in or¬ 
ganic matter to hold moisture during the 
hot summer and keep the soil from packing, 
using either 2 quarts of G. P. M. Peat Moss, 
2 pounds of Hyper-Humus, or 1 pound of 
Wood’s High Grade Sheep Manure per square 
foot. (These fertilizers are found on the 
bottom of page 4.)
