PLANTING 
themums grow ‘equally as well on a raised bench or on a ground bed. The care is slightly 
t in that raised benches dry out more frequently during the summer and early fall months. 
be remembered that a good circulation o% air is desirable, yet a direct draft is not advisable. 







Planting Date — 3 
The plants to be shaded should be planted seven weeks before the shading date in order that suffi- 
cient growth is made to give necessary height before black cloth is applied. For normal flowering 
all planting should be done in the month of June. The plants should be established in the soil three 
r weeks before pinching. —

found that young, soft plants are superior to hard woody plants. 
Ww en planting rooted cuttings either into 2's" pots or directly into the bench, dip the cuttings, roots
