ALL THE BEST—Greenhouse Forcing “SNAPS” 
Originator’s Packets 
Special Note—Seed should be sown late June or July for Winter flowering in Northern States. Late July or early August 
in Southern States. High temperatures retard germination. Select a cool location for the seed flats where there is good air cir- 
culation. Water sparingly but keep moist, until seedlings are well established. We recommend using sterilized soil and it should 
not be fertilized. Dust seeds with Proliferol or Hormo-Root before sowing.
