PLANTING. Most Peren- 
nials do best when grouped 
together with plants 6 to 12 
inches apart. If set in rows 
across a bed, have the plants 
about 8 inches apart in rows 
and the rows 12 to 15 inches apart. 
If single hedge row or border 
effect is wanted, either set a single 
or double row with plants 8 inches 
apart alternately. Where a single

clump effect is wanted it is better 
to set three to five plants 4 to 6 
inches apart, so that they will grow 
together and give the effect of one 
large plant. In planning where to 
set your plants, notice the heights 
given after name of each variety. 
This is a average ultimate height 
of plants when in blossom. Then 
plan to set the larger growing 
varieties in background and the 
smaller sorts in front. 
TRANSPLANTING AND 
CULTURAL 
DIRECTIONS 
Perennial plants should 
be set in the ground the 
same depth or just a trifle 
deeper than they stood. in 
nurseries. Dig holes» deep 
enough so that the roots of the 
plants can go straight down into 
the soil to their full length. We 
advise the use of Peat Humus for 
putting in holes around bottom 
part of roots. A good way to do is 
to dig hole, place plant in position, 
throw in a handful of Peat, fill in 
earth up to within an inch or so 
of ground level. Then fill hole 
with Miracle Grow Nutrient Solu- 
tion (see page 23) and let it soak 
away. Then fill in with earth to 
ground level, firming and smooth- 
ing soil with hands. If hot and dry 
weather conditions prevail when 
plants are set, shade for a few days 
until they become established.
