Cutler & Downing, nurserymen at

 the new brick building on Territorial

 for an office and stock room. 



C. H. Webster, formerly in the nur- 

 sery business at Centralia, HI., is now 

 establishing a nursery at The Dalles, Ore. 

 He has purchased a small tract of ground 

 there, and will at once erect on it a 

 suitable residence for himself and family. 



Nursery inspection officials of Kansas, 

 Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas and 

 Louisiana will meet at Fort Smith, Ark., 

 December 15, to discuss and formulate, if 

 possible, a system of uniform laws and 

 regulations for the inspection of nursery 

 stock, trees ahd shrubs. 



After being at Reading, Mass., for 

 sixty years, J. W. Manning, the pres- 

 ent proprietor of the well-known Read- 

 ing Nurseries, has been compelled to 

 move his entire equipment to North 

 Wilmington, Mass., to * much larger 

 place. The rapid growth of the busi- 

 ness made this necessary. Floramead 

 Nursery contains a wealth of trees, 

 shrubs, fruits and flowers and will soon 

 become as famous as the older nursery 

 was for so long a term of years. 



POT GROWN TEEBS AND VINES. 



Some of the nurseries offer pot grown 

 trees, vines and shrubs. Will you kind- 

 ly advise the process by which these 

 are grown? Are they grown in pots 

 right from the time they are propa- 

 gated, and are the pots sunk in the 

 ground while the stock is grown? Also, 

 at what time are perennials potted up 

 to be in shape for sale as pot grown? 



H. H. G. 



In a few cases the vines and shrubs 

 are grown in pots from the start, but 

 more frequently they are lifted, pot- 

 ted, plunged outdoors in soil or cinders, 

 and grown in the pots a single season, 

 in order to become well established. 

 This applies to such plants as roses, 

 clematis, ampelopsis, lilacs, English ivy, 

 bignonias, climbing honeysuckles and 

 wistarias, in addition to Azalea mollis 

 and a variety of flowering shrubs used 

 chiefly for forcing. One advantage of 

 this pot grown stock is that it can be 

 planted at any time with perfect safe- 

 T^, and as no roots are injuxed when 

 setting them out, the plants start much 

 better than when lifted from the field. 



Perennials potted, up are either seed- 

 lings or from cuttings. In the case of

The Greatest

It flowered with us this sea- 

 son and was s^eatly admired. 



The New Bambler (Violet Blae), hsiUd 

 by the Qerman rose growers as the 

 forerunner of s genuinely cornflower 

 blue rose, is a seedling of Crimson 

 Rambler, very yigoroni and hardy, and 

 free blooming.

herbaceous phlox, cuttings are potted 

 off in spring, while with delphiniums 

 and all varieties easily raised from 

 seed, the young plants are potted, kept 

 in coldframes and shaded until estab- 

 lished, after which the sashes are re- 

 moved. If plunged in these frames, 

 the plants will grow better, and any 

 which are to be carried over winter for 

 spring sales will merely need a coating 

 of dry leaves over them and the sashes 

 to keep ^ut rain and snow. These pot 

 plants, 6f course, cost more to grow, 

 but customers are generally glad to pay 

 an enhanced price, especially when they 

 can secure and plant them with success 

 at a time when it would not be safe to 

 plant field grown stock. C. W.
