40 THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURIST. 



Malionias, Piuscus, Ikixus, CotQiieasters, and a host of similar plants 

 hardy in Great Britain, would be perfectly safe in such a structure, 

 in localities where its temperature would not fall IdcIow say 20" 

 Fahrenheit. 



For those who would afford some means of heating, a far greater 

 choice of material would be available, The following plants of the 

 warm temperate regions could be kept in perfection in such structures 

 with a night minimum of 45'' to 50° fahrenheit, always raising ])y day 

 from 60° to 70° with sunshine. The possessor of such a window might 

 easily keep it gay all winter at an outlay of from three to four dollars 

 per month, if judiciously expended in such plants as the following: 



October. — Begonias, Plumbagos, Geraniums, Mesembryanthemums, 

 Oxalis and Eoses. 



November. — Bouvardias, Chrysanthemums, Jasminums, Salvias, 

 Abutilons, Crassulas. 



December. — Chimonanthus, Oleas, Cupheas, Hibiscus, Heliotropes, 

 Veltheimias. 



January. — Kichardias, Camellias, Begonias, Primulas, Siphocam- 

 pylos, Salvias. 



February. — Cyclamens, Lopezias, Callas, Ornithogalums, Fuchsias,, 

 Ageratums. 



March. — Cinerarias, Hyacinths, Crocus, Geraniums, Azaleas, Ixias. 



The above plants, with the single exception of the Camellia, are 

 rapidly and cheaply produced, and might readily be sold in good 

 blooming size at from twenty-five to seventy-five cents each. The 

 object should be to teach the public how to keep them in fair 

 condition when produced.
