GERANIUM, CHINA ROSE, AND VERBENA.

shelves near the glass, in order to receive the sun, and be in 

 a dry location, so congenial to the flowers ; when the plants 

 are over-watered, and kept too far from the glass, they draw 

 into weak, slender growth, and generally damp off on the 

 surface of the earth in the pot. In rooms, the same culture and 

 management will be requisite. The plants, in this location, 

 during the winter, should be moderately watered, care being 

 taken not to saturate the earth with too much water, which is 

 injurious to them.
