CULTURE: While most Fuchsias within a reasonable distance from the c Deparimentof Agrlcitis 
full sun, the majority of them will be happier if planted in a cool situation. The soil in wm e 
grown should be well worked and should have incorporated with it plenty of humus in the form of leaf mold, 
peat moss, or compost. They like moisture and the soil should never be permited to dry out completely during 
the summer months. A mulch of leaf mold or peat moss should be kept on top of the ground for this purpose. 
Evans and Reeves Nurseries are celebrated as being the home of one 
of fuchsias in the country, comprising a great many varities, many of the 
tend you a cordial invitation to visit our Display Gardens; where you wil 
beautiful plants in bloom; a flower show in itself. 
The plants should be fed every 30 days throughout the spring and summer season with any standard, balanced 
plant food. They like an acid condition in the soil, so of course lime should never be used where they are growing. 
There are thousands of different varieties of Fuchsias available in the trade today, so many in fact that 
it is all very confusing to the amateur gardener. We are listing below twenty-one varieties which we consider to 
be the best for general use. This selection is made after thorough testing on our part.
