CULTURE 
Acid, humus, damp, loose 
1. The roots feed at the surface— 
do not hoe or rake. Plant them 
properly and thereafter water and 
mulch as needed. 
2. Light shade, airy and open, 
gives best results. Only certain trees 
will do. The best are Oaks, Cherries, 
Magnolias and Birch. Their leaves 
make the best mulch. Avoid Beech 
and Maple.
