CONSERVATORY PLANTS. 



the conservatory. I have never tried the Proteas in the pit of a con- 

 servatory, being of opinion that they would not do well ; the best 

 soil for them is a light turfy loam, mixed with one-third of fine sand; 

 the pots should be well drained, and care should be taken not to let 

 them droop for want of water, as the young roots are of a fleshy sub- 

 stance, and soon suffer by being too dry, as well as by being too wet, 

 they seldom recover if permitted to droop long ; they also should be 

 placed where they will have a free circulation of air.
