are fulfilled. They may be grown without difficulty in all Gulf Coast regions, and the Atlantic Coast, 
as far north as North Carolina.

about one-third each leaf mold, good loam and peat moss. To this, add one four-inch pot of Aluminum 
Sulphate to wheelbarrow of soil. 
8. Keep well watered always; spray foliage often. 
4. Provide good drainage; fill in bottom of bed 10 inches with crushed brick, steel shavings, scrap iron, 
old bones, etc. :
