GENERAL SOWING HINTS 
FOR GROWING FLOWERS 
FROM SEED 
LOCATION: Nearly all flowers do well in 
sunny location. 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. aais 
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 pos- 
sible. 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—until germina- 
tion. 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 
dressing after the plants are up, to stimulate 
and properly feed the plants.
