CAHE OF FICUS. 



Please give me some information as 

 to the care of small rubber plants. Some 

 of mine are beginning to turn brown at 

 the end of the leaves. C. F. N. 



Not knowing what treatment your 

 plants have had, it is difficult to advise 

 as to the cause of your trouble. Pos- 

 sibly you have had your plants outdoors 

 or in a frame and they were frozen 

 before being housed, or perhaps you are 

 growing them in a cold and damp house. 

 Give them a bench in a light, sunny 

 house, kept at 50 to 55 degrees at night. 

 Do not allow them to become dry at the 

 root. Spray overhead in bright weather 

 .and shift into larger pots before they 

 become matted with roots. Be care- 

 ful not to give the plants too large a 

 shift. Drain the pota so that water will 

 pass away freely. C. W. 



HARDINESS OF OTAKSA. 



Is Hydrangea Otaksa a hardy out- 

 door plant in the state of Maine, or is 

 it entirely for greenhouse culture? 

 C. F. N. 



Hydrangea Otaksa is not hardy in the 

 state of Maine. The plants will stand 

 quite a little frost when the wood is 

 well ripened, but it would not be safe to 

 expose them even then to a lower tem- 

 perature than 20 degrees above zero. 

 These hydrangeas winter well in a cellar 

 or shed kept just above freezing. An 

 occasional light freezing will not hurt 

 them. In some parts of Bhode Island, 

 especially at Newport, large specimens 

 are boxed up outside. With shoots packed 

 in earth and with straw protection, they 

 •can be brought through the winter safe- 

 ly. Other growers dig up the plants, 

 lay on their sides and cover with earth. 

 The more severe climalle in Maine would 

 hardly allow of thrtse methods of win- 

 tering being tried. / C. W.

 houses, where W. Peirce is manager, a 

 new house has just been completed. The 

 firm now has three houses, each 30x120 

 feet, and a large part of the space is 

 devoted to roses and carnations. The 

 stock is in first-class shape.

ALL HEART SUN DRIED 



CYPRESS 



There is no wood its equal to resist 

 decay when it is FREE of SAPWOOD 

 and SUS DRIED IN THE AIR. One 



piece of sap in a house will cause 

 more trouble and expense than many 

 times the difTerence in cost between 

 the best and sappy material. Kiln 

 drying destroys the vitality of any
