CULTURAL REQUIREMENTS 
Below are listed requirements of various plants, 
each group identified by a letter of the alpha- 
bet. In this way we hope it will be easier to 
pick out the plants that should do best in your 
particular situation. In the case of plants re- 
quiring special conditions, this will be noted in 
the descriptions. 
A. Plants marked with “A” are those requir- 
ing light shade. The soil should be about one- 
half to one-third leafmold, well rotted. cow 
manure, compost or neutral peat. The soil should 
be moist, but not soggy, with good drainage. 
B. Plants marked with “B” will grow in any 
good garden soil either in full sun or light shade. 
C. These are the plants that like “wet feet’, 
even can be flooded for brief periods when dor- 
mant. Soil should be rich. Muck, neutral peat. 
or any soil enriched with leafmold, well rotted 
the manure or compost. Full sun or light 
shade. ; 
D. Acid soil for these. Liberal addition of 
pine needles, oak leafmold or acid peat will bring 
success with these plants. Well drained soil. in 
light shade is best. 
M. We are marking those items that like a 
little extra moisture with “M” in combination 
with “A”, “B” or “D.” -Those so marked will 
grow with conditions as above, but extra mois- 
ture is needed to do their best. 
General: Fall planting is best for most native 
plants, particularly the early bloomers. In gen- 
eral, plant with about one-half inch to one inch 
of soil over the crown. A light mulch of leaves 
or marsh hay is good protection the first winter.
