devoted to it, preferably using a solid 

 bed. If you can get small plants now 

 — and they are being offered to the 

 trade — plant them out at once if you 

 want them to flower late in May and 

 through June. Space the plants a foot 

 apart and grow them in a cool house. 

 In some sections Feverfew in pots sella 

 well in the spring when a customer is 

 liking them for bedding. 



It is time to get in orders for bed- 

 ding stock which is none too plentiful. 

 In some sections there seems to be a 

 shortage of geraniums. This doubt- 

 less will mean a heavier sale of cannas, 

 petunias and begonias. As a matter 

 of fact it would be just as well if cus- 

 tomers could be induced to use a 

 wider variety of stock. Many florists 

 are growing the yellow Polyanthus this 

 season, perhaps for the first time. 

 Tliere should be a good market for 

 them at Easter. As a matter of fact 

 these flowers sell well both potted and 

 as cut flowers. Remember that they 

 need to be grown cool and given plenty 

 of water. If you keep them in a warm 

 house, and especially if the atmosphere 

 is dry, you ^ill have few flowers, al- 

 though an abundance of foliage. The 

 temperature of a violet house is best 

 for them.

Hydrangeas for Easter should be 

 well along by this time. Color should 

 be showing well, and if not you had 

 better give a little more heat to hurry 

 them along. Don't forget the neces- 

 sity, however, of hardening off these 

 and other Easter stocli which has to be 

 forced quickly. You need not worry if 

 you do not sell all of your plants and 

 most of the other stock at Easter. You 

 will still have Memorial Day for a 

 market, and there is every reason to 

 believe that there will be a big demand 

 for potted plants all through the 

 spring. In any event you can't go 

 wrong with French Hydrangeas, for 

 no one can question tlieir increasing 

 desirability or their value as a sub- 

 stitute for azaleas.
