DI8COL0BEO SALVIA FOXJAGE. 



We are having difficulty With our 

 salvias. After they had been standing 

 in 4-inch pots for some time, their leaves 

 gradually became yellow. We have 

 used good, old soil, with the addition of 

 some new, rich black soil, and have 

 kept them on the dry side at times. The 

 plants, when transferred from the prop- 

 agating bench to 2^ -inch pots, were 

 perfectly green. We might expect the 

 old leaves to turn yellow, as they nat- 

 urally do, but the entire plants have a 

 yellowish tint, instead of being dark 

 green. Enclosed you will find some 

 sample leaves. K. & S. C. — ^Wia. 



It is my opinion that the trouble is 

 due to one or more of three conditions. 

 Either the plants have been allowed to 

 remain in the 4-inch pots too long and 

 have become hard and woody, or they 

 have been overwatered, or the tempera- 

 ture has been too low for them. Salvias 

 are liable to take on a yellow cast when 

 any of these three conditions have been 

 allowed to prevail, but, unless they are 

 in extremely bad shape, they will out- 

 grow the trouble after they have been 

 planted outdoors and the weather has 

 become warmer. M. P.
