EDITORIAL NOTES. 



Despite the fact that we have been passing through the 

 dull season for Fern culture, when little can be done to 

 Ferns save the all-essential watering necessary under glass, 

 but which is too often neglected, to their subsequent 

 impoverishment or even death, the Editor has been 

 favoured with some good contributions from members 

 which will, doubtless, be interesting to their fellow Fern 

 lovers, since there is always something to be learnt from 

 the particular experiences of intelligent observers when 

 carefully recorded. Mr. C. B. Green's interesting notes 

 are concluded, and in this connection we may add that it 

 is only necessary to see his plants to recognize his ability 

 to give good advice as a very successful grower. With 

 regard to a suggested Exchange Column, we would remind 

 the members that it only rests with them to send us a note 

 of their good material available for exchange, and their 

 requirements, which will be published in the following 

 issue for the benefit of their fellow Fern lovers.
