_ __ 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. 
Forcing “Snaps” for Hot Weather 
FOR CUTTING LATE MAY TO EARLY SEPTEMBER 
Based on observations and experiments for the past few 
seasons, we find that . . 
Hybrid varieties are best for early sowings for maturity late 
September and February. 
For later blooming we advise the better selfpollinating va- 
rieties we list, as they seem to crop longer during Spring than 
the Hybrids do. 
Hot weather varieties for June, July and August are very li- 
mited. For this purpose we recommend only those listed below. 
Grow single stem.
