 drip of trees, but where they will have the full afternoon sun. Here they will 

 require to be frequently syringed. At the end of September, having formed 

 their blooming buds, they should be taken into the greenhouse, and be placed 

 at the back part near to the glass. Some attention is required in forming a 

 plant so as to have a nice leading stem, and it be clothed from the edge ot the 

 pot to the summit with a tegular arrangement of blooming shoots. Occasional 

 pinching off' the points of the leaders or laterals will be necessary to effect the

Os a Selection ok Choice Greenhouse Plants.— Having just built a small 

 greenhouse, I am desirous to make a collection of a few handsome plants, and 

 have looked over your Magazine with that intent, but am unable to choose irom 

 so great a variety named, and am likewise ignorant whether they are easily to 

 be procured, and at what price? Will you therefore be kind enough to give a 

 list in one of your early numbers, with the price, and also of some handsome 

 hardy perennials. The common sewer of some twenty houses runs through my 

 premises, in common with the sewerage of a tan yard ; will the liquid part do tor 

 liquid manure, or would the tan be prejudicial? By an early answer to the above 

 queues you will much oblige An Old Subscriber.
