MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. 



If required to be taken up, do so a fortnight after they have done blooming, 

 for they otherwise begin to vegetate again at the root, and if then removed, the 

 roots would be weakened. 



After talcing them up, place them out of the sun, behind a hedge or fence, on 

 the bare ground, until the planting time. 



The Spanish Iris requires similar treatment, with the exception that they 

 ought not to be planted before the beginning of November, as they come up so 

 much sooner than the English Iris.
