The Florists' Review 



August 15, 1912. 



this plan cf propagation is adopted here, 

 roots of such varieties as C. Flammula 

 or C. paniculata are used. The scions 

 should be taken before the wood is quite 

 ripe, a^4 wood from under glass is bet- 

 ter for this purpose than when grown 

 outdoors. A fairly cool, shady, moist 

 house, with a gentle bottom heat, should 

 be afforded the grafts, which should be 

 in small pots. 



Propagation by means of cuttings in 

 June, in close hotbeds, is more generally 

 adopted than any other method, on ac- 

 count of its greater simplicity. Great 

 care must be used in shading, spraying 

 and closing up the frames, in order to 

 bottle up a nice, moist heat each day. 

 Cuttings with a single eye are as good 

 as longer ones. These prove just as 

 satisfactory in the garden as grafted 

 plants, and do not send up wild suckers 

 as the latter do. 



The third plan of propagation is to 

 twist 9T slightly cut pieces of growing 

 wood and then layer them. It will take 

 a year before the layers have sufficient 

 roots to become detached from the par- 

 ent plants. C. W. 



CLEMATIS FBOM SEED. 



Will you kindly inform me how to 

 raise Clematis paniculata from seedf 

 Can it be sown in the open ground 

 now, in this Ohio climate f The seed 



has not been stratified. 



F. M. P. 



Seed •{ Clematis paniculata can be 

 sown in the open ground at once and 

 a good number should germinate. I 

 have had better results with this 

 clematis by sowing in a coldframe in 

 late fall, as soon as the seed is ripe. 

 The see^ings usually come up in June. 

 Seed of clematis, and in fact all climb- 

 ers aad shrubs, does even better if 

 sown in pans or flats in late fall and 

 carried ovef winter in a cold pit, than 

 when sown as late as the middle of 

 May. Your clematis seed will prob- 

 ably not start quite so early as if it 

 had been sown in late fall, but you 

 can depend on a fairly good germina- 

 tion. C. W. 



Norwalk, O. — Willard Parker has sold 

 the Parker Greenhouses to Arthur 

 Doebel, from Cleveland, who will con- 

 duct them along the same lines that 

 have been followed heretofore.
