Culture. Of the annual and biennial species the seeds 

 should be sown in pots, in spring, and, when the seedlings 

 will bear handling, separated and planted singly in other 

 pots. The same soil suits them as the perennial succulent 

 species, which are those most in request. The culture of 

 these is as follows, whether for bedding-out or growing 

 constantly under glass : Make short cuttings, about 

 the end of August or in September, of the tops of the 

 young shoots which have not flowered, and, after the 

 cuttings are rooted, place singly in small pots, and grow 

 till the end of October, when the pots are filled with roots. 

 From this time to the end of February keep in a cool green- 

 house, on a shelf close to the glass, and give two or three 

 waterings during the winter. As soon as the plants 

 begin to move in the spring, stop them at about three or 

 four inches from the pot, and a few of the top leaves 

 take off, to facilitate the growth of new shoots. As soon 

 as these are well formed, thin them, so as to leave but 

 from three to six shoots on each plant, according to its 

 strength ; and, as soon as the shoots are two inches loner, 

 shift into pots a size or two larger, in a mixture of yellow 

 loam and pounded bricks, well drained.
