GENERAL PLANTING DIRECTIONS FOR GROWING 
FLOWERS FROM SEED 
Nearly all flowers do well in sunny locations. 
in the shade. For flowers blooming in the late spring, high shade from the hot atfter- 
LOCATION: 
noon sun should be provided. 
SOIL: Light, rich loamy soil is best suited for flowers. To improve heavy soils and con- 
serve 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 ¥%4 to ¥2 
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—until 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. 
FERTILIZER: We recommend the use of an all-purpose commercial fertilizer as a top 
CACTUS 
Cactus seed should be planted during the 
spring and summer months in natural desert 
soil or a mixture of sand, fine silt and leat 
mold. Seed should be planted shallow and 
kept slightly moist until germination, then wa- 
tered sparingly.
