GIANTS OF CALIFORNIA 
The Giants of California can also be grown similarly 
to the non-branching type. When grown this way, the 
side shoots should be removed. For the retail grower 
the branching types are gaining popularity. These 
should be planted 8 x 8 inches and topped when 6 
inches tall to produce side shoots of sufficient length.

TRYSOMIC GIANT IMPERIAL 
Years of research went into pro- 
ducing Trysomic Stock that pro- 
duces 85 per cent or more double- 
flowered plants when sown from 
seed. In addition to this excellent 
trait, when the seedlings reach 
the four-leaf stage you can pick 
out the small, weak ones that will 
develop into singles and thus in- 
sure yourself close to 100 per cent 
double-flowering plants.

Stocks are very satisfactory for Winter and Spring flowering. Sowing the 
seed in August and benching in October, the first flowers may be cut be- 
fore Christmas if additional light (40-60 watt lamps spaced 5 feet) is used. 
Without this aid, the crop will come into flower in January. Continuity of 
bloom may be obtained by successive sowings. This non-branching type, 
which has come into general use, should be planted 3 inches in the row 
and 6 inches between rows, producing a single stem. The branching types 
should be planted 8 x 8 inches and topped when 6 inches tall to produce 
side shoots of sufficient length. 
Flowering of stocks only occurs when the temperatures are below 60 
degrees for the greater part of the night. To secure the greatest percentage 
of doubling, the largest and most vigorous plants should be selected.
