Do Not Take Any Fake Green Thread. Use the Genuine 

 Silkaiine and Get More Thread and Less Wood 



The »I£Y£R Green 



SILKALINE 



Used by Retail Florists for messing funeral 

 designs, tying btmches. etc., is 



THE ONLY ARTICLE THAT SHOULD BE USED 



by Growers for stringing Smilax and Asparagus, as 

 it will not fade or rot in the greenhouse. The Moyar 

 Sllkailna was the first green thread to be introduced 

 among Florists and Growers. It is handled by the 

 best houses everywhere, but it should be ordered by 

 name— Mayar'a Silkaiine— to be sure of getting the 

 genuine article. Do not accept substitutes. 



If your Jobber cannot supply you, order direct of 

 the manufacturers. Price for any size or color, $1.25

WINTEBING INCABVILLEAS. 



What is the best winter treatment 

 for Incarvillea Delavayi? Should the 

 roots be lifted and stored in sand, and 

 could they be started in a hotbed in 

 spring! They seem to have a tendency 

 to rot in our heavy soil. Any addi- 

 tional hints as to their culture will be 

 greatly appreciated. The foregoing 

 questions apply to conditions in New 

 Hampshire. P. S. D. 



This handsome, hardy herbaceous 

 plant is not really hardy in northern 

 New England, except in well drained, 

 light, sandy soil, and then it must be 

 well protected. The best plan is te 

 lift the roots and store them in sand 

 in a coldframe or cellar, such as will 

 winter potatoes successfully, planting 

 them outdoors as soon as the ground 

 opens up in spring. You could start 

 them, if you wished, in a gentle hotbed, 

 but they succeed fully as well planted 

 out in a dormant condition. While 

 incarvilleas winter best in light, sandy 

 soil, I find they grow and flower much 

 better in a heavier and well manured 

 soil. C. W.
