CHAPTER XIV 



PLANTS ADAPTED TO WINDOW CULTURE 



The list of plants adapted to cultivation in the 

 window of the living room is not as large as one 

 would suppose, after going through a greenhouse and 

 seeing the variety usually grown there. Many plants 

 flourish there which would refuse to grow in the con- 

 ditions which ordinarily prevail in our living rooms, 

 where they have dust, dry air and irregular tempera- 

 ture to contend with. 



Below I give a list of such flowering plants as 

 can be grown in most dwellings, with fair chances of 

 success, if proper care is given them. By the term 

 "proper care," is meant the application of the advice 

 contained in the preceding pages of this book concern- 

 ing the treatment which pot plants should receive at 

 the hands of their owners.
