General Planting Directions for Growing 
Flowers From Seed 
LOCATION: Nearly all flowers do well in sunny loca- 
tions Only a few can be grown in the shade. For 
flowers blooming in the late spring, high shade from 
the hot afternoon sun should be provided. 
SOIL: Light, rich loamy soil is best suited for flowers. 
To improve heavy soils and conserve moisture, add 
peat moss and sand liberally. Spade the soil deeply 
and make the top 3 or 4 inches as fine and loose and 
smooth as possible. Well rotted manure worked into 
the soil before planting may be used if desired. 
SOWING THE SEED: Fine seeds should be planted on 
the surface and a very little soil sprinkled over them, 
after which they should be pressed firmly to the soil 
with a board. Medium size seeds may be planted 
twice the depth of their diameter, or from 14 to Y2 inch 
deep. Larger seeds, such as sweet peas should go 
deeper. 
WATERING: After planting, water with a fine spray 
to avoid washing the soil from the seed Keep top soil 
damp — not wet—vuntil germination. When» large 
enough, thin plants from 2 to 12 inches, depending 
upon the variety. Water plants thoroughly ONLY at 
intervals—not daily. Watering depends upon the time 
of year, texture of soil and nature of plant. 
FERTILIZING: We recommend the use of an all-pur- 
pose commercial fertilizer as a top dressing after the 
plants are up, to stimulate and properly feed the 
plants.
