134 CAMELLIA CULTURE. 



Keep the house cool by shading the glass and watering 

 the pathways during the middle of the day. 

 Syringe as for the month of May. 



The Cuttings 



Which were put in the sand-bed last November should 

 now be thoroughly rooted, and ready for pots and soil. 



July, 



The buds will now be formed. 



Give the plants the same treatment as for last month. 



Inarching and grafting can be done successfully dur- 

 ing this month. 



Those plants that were inarched last summer will do 

 to "work" on the stock at this time. 



If the weather during this month is hot and dry, 

 syringe the Camellias that are out in the open air fre- 

 quently, and they will be greatly benefited by it. 



August. 



Shade, air and syringe the same as for last month. 



The grafting and inarching, if not completed in July, 

 may be continued this month. 



If the white varieties are kept in the greenhouse, they 

 should be carefully watched, for pests are apt to infest 

 them; and syringe daily during this month. 



September. 



Towards the middle of this month, house those plants 

 which were put out in May.
