FORCING LILACS. 



Please tell me how to force lilacs for 

 winter blooming. We grow a general 

 line of cut flowers and plants. Would 

 it be practical for us to grow lilacs for 

 winter blooms for our own use! We 

 bought some pot-grown plants last fall. 

 Several of the plants had only one 

 bloom, with lots of shoots. Will these 

 shoots be blooming ones for another 

 year? W. S. G.— N. C. 



There is nothing impracticable about 

 the retail florist forcing his own lilacs 

 if a sufficiently warm house is available. 

 Perhaps the lack of the necessary heat 

 was the cause of the disappointment 

 mentioned in the inquiry — the failure of 

 many of the buds to develop. A high 

 temperature is required, beginning with 

 55 to 60 degrees and gradually increas- 

 ing to 75 to 85 degrees. In these higher 

 temperatures frequent syringing is 

 needed, as well as daily watering, but 

 the syringing should be stopped when
