ing P. malacoides and P. kewensis. A 

 mixture which has been recommended 

 for primroses is made of three parts 

 fibrous soil, two parts of old cow 

 manure and two parts of leaf mold 

 with a little sand added. Watering is 

 of the greatest importance and three 

 applications a day may be needed. 

 Keep the frames shaded with laths 

 and put on glass if heavy rains 

 threaten to do damage. It is for the 

 advantage of the plants to be exposed 

 to the night dews but when the day« 

 are very hot spraying will be required 

 to keep them in good shape. 



John Farrell says that the long thin 

 freesia bulbs give better results than 

 the thick heavy bulbs commonly sold, 

 and doubtless he is right. The freesia 

 is not a great money maker, but it is 

 not a difficult flower to handle and 

 florists like to have a steady supply 

 coming on, so that several plantings 

 will be required. The bulbs may be 

 set one inch apart in the rows with 

 four inches between the rows. They 

 make quick growth and may be given 

 full light as soon as the shoots ap- 

 pear. Before that it is well to keep 

 them somewhat darkened. Do not for- 

 get that you are not likely to feed 

 your freesias too much after they have 

 become well started. From 65 to 60 

 degrees at night is the right tempera- 

 ture. Freesias wanted for Christmas 

 should be potted up immediately. 



There is likely to be a big demand 

 for potted plants during the coming
