-DIRECTIONS FOR EACH MONTH. 309 



this month, so that they may be well rooted before the 

 frosts set in. 



Now is the best time to plant all kinds of Bulbs, except 

 the best Ranunculuses and Anemonies, which may be 

 planted in February, though this month is preferable. 



Plant all kinds of shrubs the latter end of the month, 

 and take care to water them as soon as planted. 



Mignonette in pots should now be housed. 



Plant cuttings of Honeysuckle, and many others of the 

 same kind of shrub. 



Bulbous Roots for forcing, either in pots or glasses, 

 should now be attended to. See the mode of managing 

 them in the month of January. 



Hardy Evergreens may be now moved, such as Laurels, 

 Laurustinus, &c. 



Now is a good time to divide and plant Polyanthuses, 

 and plant seedlings where they are to blow. 



If not done last month, plant Brompton and Queen 

 Stocks where they are to remain. 



The latter end of the month plant Forest Trees. 



Whatever was omitted last month should be finished in 

 this, as there ' are a very few plants or shrubs that ought 

 to be planted after this month till the spring, except Forest 

 Trees. 



THE GREENHOUSE. 



October. 



Give plenty of air through the day. About the middle 

 of this month take in all the hardier plants, give them 

 fresh earth, and well clean them before you remove them, 

 taking care to catch a dry day for this work. 



Water succulent plants very sparingly.
