HARDWOODED PLANTS. 



The usual custom of placing all hard- 

 wooded plants outdoors for the sum- 

 mer, placing them under the shade of 

 adjacent trees that are sometimes in- 

 sect infested, and where the plants do 

 not get fresh air in nearly sufBcient 

 amounts, is not always the best that 

 could happen. Growers who practice 

 this look on the summer as a trouble- 

 some period in the life of their Azal- 

 eas, Genistas. Heaths, Boronias, and 

 similar stock that has to be bridged 

 over somehow, and lumping them all 

 together with Oleanders, Orange trees, 

 and other stock equally misused seems 

 the easiest way out of it. Heaths and 

 Boronias treated this way never flower 

 satisfactorily as the wood is soft and 

 immature. They should be plunged 

 outside in the sun with their roots and 

 pots safe from the scorching heat in 

 plunging material kept moist by occa- 

 sionally spraying and keeping the top 

 loose. During the very hottest part of 

 the summer these plants can be kept 

 right this way, though a light shade 

 from the midday sun at such times is 

 an advantage. Azaleas need more 

 shade than Heaths, and as the flower 

 buds are already set in the growth the 

 ripening process need not be so severe. 

 The tree shade may do all right for 

 them provided the position is one in 

 which the air can circulate freely 

 among them. Rhododendrons may be 

 similarly treated.— Journal of Horticul- 

 ture, London. 



Springfield, III.— Mr. L. F. Swift is 

 remodelling the extensive grounds of 

 his summer home at Lake Forest, 111., 

 and will greatly improve them. He 

 has secured a gardener from England 

 who will assume his duties in the near 

 future.
