PAPER WHITES WITH PEAS. 



I should like to find out whether 

 Paper Whites can be successfully 

 grown in the same house with sweet 

 peas. The benches are five feet wide. 

 I have two rows of peas in each Jbed 

 and the rows are planted about*"one 

 foot from the edge of the bed. Could 

 the Paper Whites be best grown be- 

 tween the rows or on the outside? How 

 long would it take to get flowers? 

 What is the best variety Is there any- 

 thing that would do better than Paper 

 Whites? S. C. C. 



Paper White narcissi will do well 

 with your sweet peas. There will not 

 be any space to grow them between 

 the sweet pea rows, but on the outer 

 sides of the benches they will do nicely, 

 either planted directly in the bench or, 

 better still, started in pans or flats if 

 jou have bench space of sufficient 

 width to accommodate them. If you 

 keep your sweet peas at an average 

 temperature of 50 degrees at night, it 

 will take eight to ten weeks to flower 

 the Paper Whites. If started in flats 

 before being placed on the benches, it 

 will take only half this time. If you 

 have raised benches, the best plan will 

 be to place the flats of bulbs below 

 them until well started, later lifting 

 them onto the benches. 



Spanish iris could be planted outside 



the pea rows, but would not flower 

 until spring; neither would any of the 

 gladioli. If your roAi^s were farther 

 apart you could grow single or double 

 violets between them until the peas 

 shaded them too much. Of course 50 

 degrees, which suits sweet peas, is warm 

 for violets, but up to the flowering 

 period the peas do well run 5 degrees 

 cooler. C. W. 



PLANTS SHIPPED LONG WAY. 



Will you kindly advise us what is a 

 good fertilizer to restore the foliage on 

 cyclamens? We have our plants shipped 

 from so great a distance that when they 

 arrive the foliage has either rotted or 

 dried up and it takes a long time for 

 them to get into a salable condition 

 again. H. B. 



Once the foliage has rotted or dried 

 up on cyclamens it is not easy to bring 

 them into salable condition again. Pre- 

 suming that they are well rooted, you 

 can apply weak doses of liquid cow 

 manure water containing some soot 

 once a week. If you can also procure 

 a small quantity of Bon Arbor and 

 use it at the rate of a teaspoonful to 

 three gallons of water you will find it 

 excellent. As a surface dressing we 

 have found nothing to beat Clay's fer- 

 tilizer. An application of a small 

 spoonful once a fortnight to each 6-inch 

 pot will tone them up finely. Lightly 

 scratch over the surface soil before 

 applying it, but be sure not to drop 

 any of the fertilizer on the corm or 

 foliage. Give the plants a night tem- 

 perature of 50 to 55 degrees. C. W.
