PLANT LIEFGREEN’S FLOWER SEEDS 
General Planting Suggestions 
Light, rich loamy soil is best suited to flow¬ 
ers. If the soil is of a heavy nature, add sand 
or peat moss and a liberal scattering of air- 
slacked lime to form a better texture. Prepare 
the soil as fine and smooth as possible. The 
depth of planting flower seeds is very import¬ 
ant. Very fine seeds should be planted on the 
surface and pressed into the soil, then sprinkle 
over the surface a light mulch to aid germina¬ 
tion. Medium sized seeds should be planted 
Vi to 1/2 inch deep, while larger seeds such as 
Sweet Peas, should go deeper. A light mulch 
should be spread over all seeds planted, as it 
is the best method of keeping the soil moist 
and cool. Water with a fine spray to avoid 
washing the soil from the seeds. When large 
enough, thin young plants from 2 to 12 inches 
apart, depending on the variety. Give them 
plenty of room to develop, allow plenty of 
moisture and good drainage and the results 
will surprise you.
