WAYSIDE GARDENS “EXCLUSIVE” 
ORGANIC PLANT FOOD 
Used at WAYSIDE in 
It is whole-heartedly endorsed for our customers. 
Declared by experts as ‘’tops.’’ 
the production of millions of fine plants. 
Thousands of customers and strangers alike have vis- 
ited WAYSIDE GARDENS. They have marvelled at our 
nursery of plants. They have been known to actually 
gasp for breath at the sheer beauty of 400 acres of flow- 
ers brought to such a high degree of perfection. Invari- 
ably, they ask us the same question: 
“To what do you attribute the superior qualities of 
your flowers?” 
And invariably our answer is the same: ‘’The chief 
reason for the high quality of Wayside products is due 
to the fact that we use only the very finest Plant Food 
For Bulbs, Lawns, Flower Gardens. 
that skill and money can produce!” 
You will agree that we have entirely too much at stake 
to afford to use any other kind. In addition to the enor- 
mous investment represented by our nurseries, we have 
a reputation to maintain among thousands of the most 
critical floral customers in the land. We prize and guard 
very jealously such possessions. Contented only 
with the best we advise our customers to adopt the same 
attitude, in order that the fine specimens grown at WAY- 
SIDE may be duplicated in your own garden. We recom- 
mend only that which we ourselves use. 
We Learn from the English 
We are indebted to a noted English gardener for the 
Exclusive Organic Plant Food we use in growing millions 
of plants of superior quality. Among other things, he said: 
“A lawn should not be treated like a hayfield, 
but like a permanent garden. Therefore, | object 
to chemical fertilizers for lawns. It is not the QUAN- 
TITY of grass cut from the lawn each week, but the 
DENSITY AND LUXURIANCE OF THE GRASS which 
produces the effect of walking over a thick velvet 
carpet that counts. If you want a thick lawn in which 
there is no room for weeds, it is essential that you use 
a properly balanced CRGANIC Plant Food—one that 
sinks deeply into the soil for the grass or plant roots 
to go after. That is where the moisture is, and you 
will find it unnecessary to water so much in summer.” 
WAYSIDE’S Exclusive Organic Plant Food is made from 
bone meal, dried blood, ground fish, and muriate of pot- 
ash, in proportions recommended by the ‘‘old country” 
expert. These long-lasting ingredients, heavy with life- 
producing qualities, give your flowers a well-balanced 
diet, containing in just the right amounts those things 
that go to make strong roots, sturdy stalks, bright green 
leaves, a profusion of foliage and an abundance of large 
and healthy blooms year in and year out. It does not 
stimulate, but nourishes any and all plants and imparts 
to them a youthful and lusty vigor. It disintegrates slowly. 
It is excellent to use in bulb plantings as well as in Rose 
beds, or hardy plant borders. Use it consistently year 
after year, and your garden will be among the most beau- 
tiful. 
Ideal for Roses and Hardy Plants 
Also it is excellent for spading into the Rose beds when 
you are preparing the Rese bed for winter. Use it gen- 
erously in your bulb plantings and in any hardy flower 
border. 
In late summer and autumn your soil is in better con- 
How to Use Wayside Organic Plant Food 
dition than in early spring. By working and preparing it 
prior to the approach of winter, you will have more leisure 
to enjoy its greater beauty—the satisfying rewards of 
your efforts—when Nature reanimates your bulbs and 
Roses next spring. 
Nor do we need to use much of it to 
obtain the lasting magical results it pro- 
duces. Furthermore, it is easy to use and 
apply it. If your garden is an established 
one, apply twice a year, March first and 
October first. Use 15 to 25 pounds for 
top dressing a space 500 square feet for 
Hardy Plants, Rock Plants, Roses, Annuals, 
and other Flowering Plants, Shrubs, and 
Bulbs. In making a new garden, double 
the amount and mix with the soil. Planting 
may be done at once. No burning is pos- 
sible. For old lawns, use 10 to 25 Ibs. for 
top dressing 500 sq. ft. For potted plants, 
a 3-inch potful mixed with a bushel of soil 
will give you splendid results.
