WINTERING TENDEB AQUATICS. 



Will you tell me the best method of 

 wintering tender nymphseas, nelum- • 

 biums water hyacinths and tulips in 

 this Arkansas climate? I have been 

 thinking of building cement basins un- 

 der my greenhouse benches for this pur- 

 pose. The plants are now in cement 

 basins two feet deep, with one foot of 

 soil m the bottom and about one foot 

 of water. This is my first year's ex- 

 perience with water gardening and I 

 should appreciate any information on 

 the subject. q ip, D 



Cement basins under the benches wilj 

 answer well. There is no need to make 

 them deep; twelve to fifteen inches is 

 ample, placing six inches of aquatic soil 

 in the bottom. You could build similar 

 basins in a heated frame if you have 

 such. If these can be kept at a mini- 

 mum of 60 degrees, they will carry any 

 of the nymphffias through nicely. We 

 have seen them successfully wintered 

 in an even lower temperature, but in 

 the latter case a pipe in the water kept 

 it moderately warm all the time. The 

 nelumbiums should not need any win- 

 ter protection in your climate. The 

 Limnocharis Humboldtii, or water pop- 

 py, and Eichhornia crassipes major, or 

 water hyacinth, will winter in any metal 

 or cement tank containing four to six 

 inches of water. c. w. 



GENISTAS TURNING YELLOW. 



I have a lot of Genista fragrans 

 which grew nicely until about two 

 months ago. I took cow manure and 

 soaked in water and gave them a dose 

 every two weeks. But since that time 

 they have stopped growing and turned 

 yellow, and some of them died. Can 

 you give me some advice in this mat- 

 ter? o. L. H. 



You have undoubtedly given the 

 genistas an overdose of manure water. 

 All you can do now is to stop using it 

 and stick to clear water. Genistas do 

 not require any feeding at this season, 

 and will not stand any such doses as 

 soft-wooded plants. Manure water, 

 when applied to genistas, acacias, 

 ericas, camellias, etc., should be quite 

 weak, and ought not to be applied at 

 this season at all. C. W. 



PROPAGATION OF SPRENGEBI. 



Please tell me the best way of start- 

 ing Asparagus Sprengeri. Can it be 

 started from cuttings? ,T. G. 



Asparagus Sprengeri is usually propa- 

 gated from seeds, which may be had 

 from almost any of the larger seeds- 

 men, w. H. T.
