WHERE, HOW, AND WHEN TO PLANT 
We always stress the importance of early Spring Planting. 
Plants that are set early get off to a head start, making a more 
vigorous growth, thus becoming well established the first 
season. This means early bearing and earlier returns on your 
investment. Spring planting is best for peaches, apricots, 
Chinese chestnuts, and strawberries. 
WHERE TO PLANT 
GRAPES. A sunny, well drained location in soil of just average 
fertility. 
FRUIT TREES, NUT TREES, BERRIES. These plants require a well 
drained, fertile soil. A gentle slope is usually the best location 
as there is less danger of frost injury at blossoming. They should 
also be planted where they will get a maximum of sunshine. 
ROSES AND ORNAMENTAL TREES. These too require a very 
fertile soil. All of the plants we list grow better in full sun, with 
the exception of dogwoods. These do well in partial shade. 
WHAT IS THE BEST FERTILIZER 
We firmly believe that there is no substitute for fertilizers of an 
organic nature, such as old hay or straw, compost, well rotted 
manure, decayed leaves. Any of these materials help loosen 
the soil, add organic matter and make the soil more retentive 
of moisture. Also growing plants under a mulch keeps the soil 
at a more constant favorable temperature for plant growth.
