vania Horticultural Society, and K. T. 

 Brown, of the Cottage Gardens Co., 

 <^ueens, N. Y., met at Philadelphia 

 March 1 to arrange for the June show 

 of the American Peony Society. The 

 meeting gave promise of a most suc- 

 cessful exhibition. The committee was 

 assured by Mr. Bust of the hearty co- 

 operation of the Pennsylvania Horti- 

 cultural Society and local exhibitors. 

 It is intended, if possible, to arrange 

 the date so that the local midseason 

 varieties will be in their prime, which 

 will allow exhibitors from the north to 

 send their earlier varieties and those 

 from the south to send their later kinds. 



GRANGES IN POTS. 



May I ask to be informed as to the 

 orange which is grown as a pot plant 

 for Christmas and Easter? What va- 

 rieties are they and what is the name 

 of the base on which the small-growing 

 varieties are grafted? I did some of 

 the grafting in Germany, but cannot 

 remember the names of stock and scion. 

 Where could such plants be obtained; 

 also can thev be grown from seeds? 

 M. L. 



The oranges in pots, commonly seen 

 at Christmas and later in the winter, 

 are commonly called the Otaheite, 

 which is really a dwarf form of the 

 common sweet orange, but which by 

 some is supposed to be a hybrid be- 

 tween an orange and a lemon. The 

 leaves resemble those of the lemon. 

 The flowers are pinkish. Under pot 

 culture fine fruiting plants no more 

 than a foot high can be produced. The 

 botanical name of the Otaheite orange 

 is Citrus Aurantium Sinensis, although 

 it has also been called C. Aurantium 

 Otaitense. Stocks are usually raised 

 from seed. Some of these might give 

 desirable fruit, but many would not.

 later on. For example, there's your
