do not produce cormels readily, and these may be made to 

 bear them by cutting or ringing (page 30). A new corm is 

 formed above the old one each year (Fig. 16). 



Glastonbury-thorn. See Crataegus. 



Gleditschia. Leguminosce. 



Seeds should be sown in spring about one inch deep 

 They should be soaked in hot water before being sown. Va- 

 rieties propagated by grafts upon seedling stock. 



Gleichenia. See Ferns. 

 Globe Flower. See Trollius. 

 Globular ia. Selaginea. 



Propagated by seeds, division or cuttings. 

 Gloriosa, Clynostylis, Methonica. Liliacece. 



Seeds should be inserted singly in small pots, in a ligh 1 

 sandy soil, and plunged in bottom heat. Bulbels, which 

 should be carefully removed from the old bulbs when start- 

 ing them in spring, as the roots are very brittle. 



Gloxinia, Escheria, Salisia. Gesneracece. 



Seeds should be sown the latter part of winter, in well- 

 drained pots or small pans of finely sifted soil, of peat, leaf- 

 mould and sand in about equal proportions. The seeds 

 should be sown thinly and covered slightly, then carefully 

 watered, and placed in a temperature of about 70 and kept 

 shaded. Cuttings of the shoots may be taken when the old 

 tubers are starting in spring, and placed in a close propagat- 

 ing frame. Leaf-cuttings, with a small portion of the petiole 

 attached, give excellent results, especially when the leaves 

 are firm and nearly matured. Leaf cuttings are made in the 

 various ways in which begonia leaf-cuttings are made (see 

 pp. 60-72, Figs. 59, 60). Also grafted (see page 88). 



Glycine. See Wistaria. 

 Glycosmis. Rulacece. 



Seeds. Increased by cuttings, which are commonly in- 

 serted in sand under glass, often in heat. 



Glycyrrhiza, including Liquiritia (Liquorice). Legummosai. 



Propagated by division and by seeds. 

 Godetia. See CEnothera. 

 Golden Rod. See Solidago. fe - 

 Goldfussia. See Strobilanthus
