GENISTAS. 



Will you please inform me concerning 

 the culture of Genista racemosa under 

 glass! W. B. 



Cuttings inserted in sand now in a 

 house where the night temperature does 

 not exceed 55 degrees will soon root, and 

 if potted along as required, will make 

 nice, bushj plants in 6-inch pots for an- 

 other winter. Genistas need a lot of 

 pinching or clipping to keep them 

 shapely. They should never be subjected 

 to anything like forcing or the flowers 

 will have little substance and soon drop.. 

 They may be wintered in any light pit 

 or house kept just clear of freezing and 

 if allowed 45 degrees to 48 degrees at 

 night will bloom in late winter or early 

 spring, when most needed. 



The plants do best outdoors during the 

 summer, plunged in ashes or loam. They 

 require syringing to keep red spider in 

 check, as it speedily ruins them if allowed 

 to secure any foothold. C. W. 



Lansing, Mich. — The Michigan Agri- 

 cultural College has completed a new 

 greenhouse which is to be used by the de- 

 partment of entomology as an insectary. 

 The structure is 20x50 feet and is divided 

 into two apartments, one of which is the 

 warm room, or growing room, in which 

 the development of the insects will be 

 watched during the summer conditions. 

 The other apartment is a cold room, in 

 which the insects will have an oppor- 

 tunity to hibernate. In order to carry 

 out these experiments, it is necessary to 

 grow the plants on which the insects 

 thrive best.
