New Floral Guide 1906 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from New Floral Guide 1906 Water thoroughly occasionally, evening is the best time, but if ground is kept mellow and well stirred, very little water is required unless in unusually dry times - Stirring the earth with a hoe or rake every day is better than watering, as it serves to bring up moisture from below and helps to keep the ground clear of weeds and grass, which is very important. Let them bloom as soon and as much as they will, but be sure to keep the flowers picked off every day before they wither or fade, for if allowed to dry up on the bush they weaken its growth - and fewer blooms will be the result. The more Vigor ous your plants grow the more they will bloom, and the finer and sweeter the flowers will be.
