Give plenty oi ventilation in the 

 bouses where you are growing be- 

 gonias and primulas. A light shading 

 Is a distinct advantage, and you will 

 need to use the hose in order to keep 

 the temperature down. This doesn't 

 mean soaking the plants, however, be- 

 cause you can injure them in that way. 

 Oftentimes all you need to do is simply 

 spray the plants lightly, wetting them 

 down thoroughly at the proper in- 

 tervals. This applies to most plants. 

 In fact sometimes, and especially in 

 the fern house, it is well to simply wet 

 down the walks instead of getting the 

 plants too thoroughly soaked. Even 

 In a chrysanthemum house it is best 

 not to give too much water and yet to 

 keep the foliage wet down when the 

 weather is hot, and to spray below the 

 benches always helps to create the 

 moist, warm atmosphere in which 

 plants luxuriate. 



Remember that the pansy sowing 

 season is now at hand, but don't try 

 to get along with anything but the 

 very best seeds. In growing pansy 

 plants for market everything depends 

 upon the quality of the seeds used. 



In starting perennials many growers 

 find it more convenient to use flats 

 than to plant directly in frames. A 

 nice porous soil is needed. Those who 

 have experimented with some of the 

 newer prepared fertilizers find them 

 excellent for perennials. Most seeds 

 such as are likely to be sown now 

 germinate readily, and the seedlings 

 should be transplanted when small. 

 Prick off as soon as you can handle 

 the plants and put them in the cold 

 frame, or if you desire into an open 

 bed or pots. 



If you are growing outdoor shrubs 

 be careful to prune back your spiraeas, 

 viburnums, syringas and diervillas as 

 soon as the flowers fade. Newly 

 planted stock growing freely requires 

 good hard pruning. 



If you find a sale for pelargoniums 

 in April and May, make cuttings now. 

 If they have plenty of drainage and 

 are not over-watered, they will prove 

 easy to handle.
