ONE - SHIFT SYSTEM OF POTTING is 

 giving a plant in a pot one large shift, in- 

 stead of frequent small ones. Thus, in- 

 stead of moving a plant successively 

 from a three to a five-inch pot, thence to 

 a seven or an eight, and thence again to 

 a ten or a twelve, allowing the roots to 

 become matted at the sides of the pot, 

 or merely to reach there, according as 

 flowering or growing is the object aimed 

 at, the plant is moved at once from a 

 three, four, or five-inch pot into one of 

 eight, twelve, or sixteen inches in di- 

 ameter. It is seldom that a cutting, or a 

 seedling, or a very small plant, is at once 

 moved into a large one, as during its very 

 small state it can be more safely, easily, 

 and economically attended to in a small 

 pot. The one-shift system requires room 

 for its adoption. Striking individual, ra- 

 ther than mere general results are its 

 characteristics; and, therefore, where a 

 constant show of bloom and considerable 

 variety in a small space are chiefly de- 

 sired, it should only be sparingly adopted. 

 The chief object aimed at is rapidity of 

 growth, and thus obtaining a beautiful 

 specimen in a much shorter period than
