CULTURAL SUGGESTIONS 
COMMERCIAL AND EXHIBITION TYPES 
SOIL PREPARATION. Prepare the beds early by spading in well decayed cattle manure or bone meal working in 
thoroughly to a depth of 12 to 15 inches. Use peat if the soil is too sandy or too heavy. 
FERTILIZING. Few applications of commercial fertilizers such as "Gaviota," "Vigoro" or other complete fertilizers should 
be used during the summer months. The feeding should be avoided during the periods of extreme heat or when the soil 
is too dry. Water the soil before applying if it is necessary. It should be stopped when the buds are large enough to 
make the final selection (Fig. 2 below). 
STOPPING. When the plant is established in your garden and when it has developed 2 or 3 pairs of matured leaves, 
the center or the main growth is nipped off. Then the plant should be restricted to two or three shoots in order to obtain 
larger blooms. For the late blooming variety, the main growths of these new shoots may be nipped off again around July 
15th in order to regulate the height, allowing only the original number of new shoots to rise per stem. 
For the large anOTnones and pompons, allow 6 to 8 growths to a plant. Other cultures for these being similar with 
those of the larger flowering varieties. 
DISBUDDING (see drawing above). Immediately after the new shoots of your selection begin to send out side 
laterals, they should be removed very close at the base (see lowest lateral of figure 1) at regular intervals of about once 
a week. The basal shoots should be removed also as they appear. This procedure should be adhered to very religiously 
in order to obtain successful results. 
The first bud produced by the plant is called the "Crown" bud and is distinguished by being surrounded by leaves. 
The "terminal" bud appears later in clusters surrounded with several flower buds. 
The procedure of "taken buds" depends very largely on the variety and no fast rules can be given, but we 
recommend reserving terminal buds for the Spider types and majority of the early flowering commercial and exhibition 
types in Southern California. The safest rule, we find, is not to save buds formed before August 20th in our district. The
