^ — According to American Gardening, Vol. XXL, No. 313, 



one of the most effective methods of producing the big 

 blooms of the exhibition rooms is to apply a solution of 

 Nitrate of Soda containing one ounce of Nitrate to four 

 gallons of water. The solution is used only on established 

 plants, and three times a week for three consecutive weeks, 

 followed by rest. The solution is not used after the buds have 

 formed.
