BOUGAINVILIiEAS FOB EASTEB. 



Kindly give me the temperature re- 

 quired for Bougainvillea Sanderiana, 

 and instructions on how to bring plants 

 into bloom by Easter. I have some nice 

 plants and should like to have them in 

 bloom by that time. V. S. — Pa. 



Pot-grown plants will flowei^ the best 

 for an early Easter, such as we shall 

 have in 1921. If the new plants were 

 planted out through the summer, they 

 will have been potted before now and 

 should be kept sprayed until well es- 

 tablished in a cool temperature.. By 

 the middle of December move the plants 

 into a warmer place, where a minimum 

 temperature of 60 to 65 degrees can be 

 maintained. Spray the plants on all 

 clear days and, if it can be done with- 

 out detriment to the other plants, close 

 the house early in the afternoon and 

 bottle up a brisk heat. Continue this 

 treatment until the flowers are colored, 

 then reduce the temperature a little and 

 discontinue spraying overhead. The 

 plants, with this treatment, should be 

 well in flower by Easter. As the plants 

 become well established in their pots 

 furnish them with liquid manure once a 

 week. C. W. 



STOCKS DO NOT BLOOM. 



"We have some nice stocks, variety un- 

 known, and out of 120 fine plants only 

 one has bloomed, the bloom being white. 

 The plants are apparently in good con- 

 dition, twelve to eighteen inches in 

 height. Will they bloom this winter, 

 and what special attention will they 

 require? E. B. & S.— Ind. * 



Some stocks not of the ten weeks' 

 type will hang fire, so to speak, some- 

 times for months. If, however, your 

 plants are healthy, they should bloom 

 freely in due season and I would not 

 throw them out. Keep a temperature 

 of 45 to 50 degrees — not higher. C. W.
