PELARGONIUMS AS BEDDEHS. 



Would pelargoniums do all right bed- 

 ded out during the summer? C. C. 



Pelargoniums of the show types are 

 not successes as bedding plants. They 

 do not stand sunshine well and their flow- 

 ering period is limited to about two 

 months, April to June. They are useful 

 as house plants or for piazza-boxes, but 

 should always have some shade. The 

 plants will grow freely if planted out, 

 but will not bloom at all after the early 

 part of June. C. W. 



CINERARIAS FOR CHRISTMAS. 



When is the proper time to sow Cin- 

 eraria stellata to obtain Chistmas plants 

 in full bloom? W. H. S. 



I am afraid you will find it somewhat • 

 <3ifficult to get Cineraria stellata in flow- 

 er as early as Christmas. The natural 

 flowering time for these plants is from 

 February until the early part of May, 

 and we find the large-flowered varieties 

 come in season earlier than the stellatas. 

 However, if you wish to try to get some 

 in for Christmas, sow the seeds in a 

 north house, or frame with a northern 

 exposure, about the middle of June. 

 Great care will be required to prevent 

 the plants damping off in warm weather. 

 August is a safer month in which to sow 

 the seed, but these would not be along 

 in time for Christmas. C. W. 



SWEET WILLIAM DRYING OFF. 



I grow from 800 to 1,000 sweet Wil- 

 liam plants to sell every year and there 

 is something which cuts them off at the 

 top of the soil. Some years I lose from 

 200 to 300. They appear all right and in 

 two or three days they are turned yel- 

 low and withered and by taking hold of 

 them I find they are separated at the 

 top of the soil. They are grown in a 

 rich, moist, sandy loam. Will you kind- 

 ly tell me what is the trouble and what 

 is a good remedy? J. E. B. 



Cutworms are probably responsible for 

 your loss of so many sweet vpilliams each 

 year. The soil you speak of should be 

 ideal for the culture of these hardy 

 plants. We would advise liming your 

 soil before you work it over this spring 

 at the rate of 1,000 pounds per acre. 

 The work of cutworms is mainly done at 

 night. You can poison many of them 

 by making a poisoned mash of shorts, 

 molasses and Paris green and dropping
