234 AMERICAN GARDENER. 



September, put them in pots, and they are ready 

 for the next spring. If you have a Green-house, 

 you have Geraniums in full bloom all the long 

 dreary winter. 



350. GUELDER-ROSE. This is called 

 here the Snow Ball tree. It is raised either from 

 layers or suckers. Its bloom is of short dura- 

 tion ; but for the time, makes a grand show in a 

 shrubbery. The suckers of it ought to be dug 

 clean away every year. 



351. HAWTHORN. This tree has been 

 amply described in Chapter I. under the head of 

 Fencing. Sometimes it is called Hawthorn, and 

 sometimes White-thorn. 



352. HEART'S-EASE, or Pansey.A beau- 

 tiful little annual, which has great varieties, and 

 all of them pretty. It blows all the summer. 

 It may be sown in the fall, without any care about 

 covering the ground; but, it must not come up, 

 in this country, till spring. 



353. HEATH. The common English heath 

 is hardy, but ugly. The Heaths from Africa are 

 of infinite variety. Insignificant in flower, how- 

 ever, and must be housed in Winter. They are 

 propagated from seed, or from slips, and will 

 last a long while. A few in a green-house are 

 pretty ; and they look gay in winter. 



354. HOLLYHOCK. This is a fine showy 

 plant for a shrubbery. There are double and 

 single, and none but the double should be culti- 

 vated. It may b raised from seed, or from off- 

 sets If the former it does not blow till the se- 

 cond year. It will remain in the ground many 

 years, and is perfectly hardy.
