NOVEMBER. 



" When nuts are but few, and they small and hollow, 

 A cold and wet harvest, there's no doutt, will follow; 

 But when they are plenty, and good, 'tis agreed, 

 A rich golden harvest is sure to succeed." 



During the continuance of mild weather, greenhouse 

 plants should have air at aii opportunities, and water in pro- 

 portion, as heat and air are attainable, 103. Bulbous roots' 

 in pots and glasses will also need attention, 93 to 100. 



Half hardy plants, such as Stock gillies, Wall flowers, 

 Carnations, Primulas, Hydrangeas, Daisies, &c. must either 

 be pi iced in frames, or in a greenhouse early in this month. 



If Dahlia, Tuberose, and other tender roots were not 

 taken up last month, let it be done in due time this month, 

 65. 



Cover up flower beds with leaves, straw, or light litter, 

 35; finish planting bulbous roots before the frost sets in. 

 Plant Anemones and Ranunculuses, 68 ; Crocuses, 69. 

 Hyacinths, 84 ; Irises, 85 ; Ixias and Jonquils, 86; Lilies, 

 87 ; Narcissus, 89 ; Pseonies, 91 ; Tulips, 92 to 96 ; 

 These, and all other kinds of plants, will need protection 

 before the setting in of the Winter, 64. Flowering and 

 ornamental shrubs may be planted in mild weather, 51 ; 

 lay long litter round the roots of them, and also of the Grape 

 vines and other tender plants, shrubs, &c, 51. 



Before the Winter sets in severely, let such Chrysanthe- 

 mums as may have been cultivated in pots be pla ted in the 

 garden, or as soon as they have done blossoming, 106.

 roots as may be required to be kept in rooms, page 99.
