Gardeners find chrysanthemums and carnations easy to grow from rooted cuttings offered by the California Association of Nurserymen. Plant in early spring, set in well prepared soil with manure and fertilizer, and enjoy bright massing blooms from chrysanthemums and fragrant individual carnations.
Rhododendrons take center stage in California gardens with varieties suited for slopes, borders, containers, and mass plantings. Plant with peat moss soil, ensure drainage, water weekly, and use acid fertilizer. Visit local nurserymen to select pink Pearl, Unknown Warrior, Betty Worthald, Cottage Garden's Pride, and others in colors from yellow to lavender.
The article offers garden guidance including choosing flowering plants from seed racks, using humus in soils, spring lawn fertilization, and planting hydrangeas fuchsias hibiscus and gladiolus with emphasis on timing and care. It highlights starting seeds for unusual plants and ensuring water and feeding for many species.
Dorothy Bayliss explains fuchsias rebuilt after pruning require nitrogen rich fertilizer. Use high nitrogen, low phosphorus and some potash for spring growth, then shift to lower nitrogen and higher phosphorus after June as plants begin to bloom. Continuous feeding yields lush green growth and many blossoms.
