Stocks Giants of California 
AeM STOCKS 
Sow the seeds of stocks in flats or cold frame and transplant to the garden 
when they are 2 to 3 inches high. For winter bloom in Southern California they 
require sun and well-drained soil and should be planted in July or August. In heavy 
soil, plant them on a slight ridge, permitting the water to drain from them during \ 
the rainy season. A&M Stocks are selected to produce an average of 15% plants \ 
bearing double flowers. For a mass of all double flowers, set close together and i 
remove the single flowered plants when first flowers appear. Stocks are an out¬ 
standing garden favorite because of their delicately colored spikes and fascinating ; 
penetrative odor.
