This method is still used to consider- able extent by commercial growers, especially in regions where the temperature seldom if ever falls below zero for any length of time. Amateur growers usually adopt this method because of its sim- plicity and inexpensiveness. Pot culture: The young rooted cuttings are planted in thumb-pots and gradually shifted to larger sizes as growth demands until they are in 7-in. pots. Here they are kept and flowered, or the plants are taken up from the field in the fall and put into 7- or 9-in. pots, accord- ing to the size and vigor of the plants. This method is seldom used in commercial growing, being expensive, inconvenient and usually iinsatisfactory. Time of planting: This varies somewhat with differ- ent growers and in different sections.
