THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE. 



which rather militates against the prevailing notion that autumn 

 is the best time for moving Evergreens. Where the leaves are 

 become brown it will be best to reduce the head of the plants, so 

 as to make them break again from the old wood. Proceed with the 

 hoeing and raking of border*, and throw in a little Mignonette, 

 or Sweet Alyssum seed in all bare places. The time of a few 

 women or boys will not be uselessly spent in eradicating Plan- 

 tain and other broad-leaved weeds from the lawn. Let ihera put 

 a little salt in the holes after the plants are cut out. Attend to 

 mowing and sweeping, and keep every part of the garden clean 

 and neat. In mowing the American garden malch the beds with 

 short grass, which not only prevents the parching up of the soil, 

 but is also, when decayed, an excellent manure for the plants. 

 1 rather suspect this is the Macintosh of a M Moorland Gardener," 

 —at any rate it is exceedingly useful, both iu the flower and 

 kitchen-garden, in dry weather. 



Rosery.— My Chinese and Tea-scented Roses which were 

 covered up with leaves and branches in the autumn are all living, 

 most of them in excellent condition and breaking away strong 

 and healthy. We shall now regulate the n, pegging them regu- 

 larly over the surface of tne beds, and then cover them again 

 thinly with evergreen branches until all danger of frost is over. 

 Reserve Garden.— Get in the biennial seeds as soon as possible, 

 towing them in drills 9 inches or a foot apart, and covering with 

 rich compost. Stocks, &c, in the seed-beds are now becoming 

 crowded ; therefore, take advantage of the first shower to trans- 

 plant them. 



Pits and Frames.— The most forward of Hydrangeas now in 

 bloom must be hardened off preparatory to beiug bedded out, and 

 stocks and other plants blooming in pots may now be removed 

 to the flower-garden, taking care to have mats at hand to cover 

 them in case of severe frost. Most of the plants for bedding out 

 may now be removed to temporary pits, or placed in sheltered 

 situations, and if the pots are wanted a number of the more 

 hardy may be plunged in sand, or sand mixed with decayed tan. 

 No time must be lost in propagating Chrysanthemums if not 

 already done. Leonotis Leonurus is a fine plant for autumn 

 blooming, either in pots or planted out; it should now be 

 increased by cuttings. Can any one favour me with a few cut- 

 tings of Verbena sulphurea?— if so, send them to the office of 

 this paper.— W. P. A. 



III.— FLORISTS* FLOWERS. 

 The Auricula.— The frost on the morning of the §*h instant 

 would most assuredly M set" the blooms exposed to its influence. 

 Some varieties, such as Kenyon's Ringleader, open very slowly, 

 and these, when caught by frost, seldom expand well alter. That 

 section of Auriculas termed Selfs, with body colours of purple of 

 various shades, &c. &c, do not appear so susceptible; they are 

 surpassingly beautiful, and merit general cultivation. Continue 

 the directions previously given for their management, and do not 

 let seedlings have too much sun. Polyanthuses. — Within the last 

 few days we have seen some beautiful seeJling varieties of most 

 excellent properties, which, when brought into competition, will 

 completely extinguish many of the older sorts. Good flowers 

 with red grounds or body-coiour are yet scarce, Bullock's Lan- 

 cer being one of the best of them. Seedlings that have been 

 raised in heat may now be gradually hardened. We would advise 

 artificial impregnation of the flowers where cultivators have the 

 inclination to carry out the means thus placed at their disposal, 

 of improving their breed of Polyanthuses, but of this interesting 

 operation more will be said next week. Tulips. — Some of the 

 earlier kinds are putting up their buds. This i3 a critical period, 

 for at this season heavy rain is often succeeded by a frost, which 

 congeals the water retained by the leaves, and consequently the 

 future blot - m is surrounded by a mass of ice, to its certain detriment. 

 Some Florists draw out the water with a syringe ; others, on 

 bands and knees, make the circuit of their beds, blowing it out 

 with their mouths, heedless of their nose or eyes being filled by 

 the experiment ; at all events, the moisture must be got rid of, 

 and though the operation is not very dignified, what will not the 

 enthusiastic Florist do to ensure the well-being and safety of his 

 favourite flowers? Carnations— Ought all to be in their bloom- 

 ing pots ; every day deferred is throwing a chance away ; yet we 

 fear that many layers have yet to be planted, and, when coming 

 from a distance, in many cases with but little soil to their roots, 

 it certainly cannot be expected that they can successfully com- 

 pete with those which have been established in the autumn. Ama- 

 teurs, I trust, will see the propriety of getting in their stock for 

 blooming when the layers are ready, at the latter end of the 

 year. Pinks— Are on the move, and must be attended to; these, 

 when planted in the spring, seldom lace well.—/. F. W. 



IV.- PINERIES, VINERIES, &c. 



Pineries.— If the bottom-heat keeps of a proper degree, the 

 principal things to be attended to for a few weeks to come are, 

 to pay particular attention to the temperature of the pits, to the 

 admission of fresh air to the plants at all favourable oppor- 

 tunities, and frequently to examine the plants to see if they 

 require water. Shut up early in the afternoon, and refresh the 

 plants not in bloom with a sprinkling of soft tepid water through 

 a fine rose. If the thermometer ran**s from 5/° to 60° where the 

 young stock is growing, it will be sufficient. Much air in warm 

 weather will be necessary for these, to induce a stout and com- 

 pact habit of growth. 



Vineries.— During the ripening of the Grapes in the early 

 house, the red spider, if not checked, will increase rapidly. Wash 

 the pipes or flues with whitewash into which sulphur has been 

 stirred; and in clear weather shut up early, that less fire-heat 

 may be required. Do not relax In maintaining a gentle heat 

 in the outside borders, by adding some fresh litter. Be assi- 

 duous in your attention to the Vines in the succession houses. 

 The late houses require much air and frequent syringings this 

 warm weather. 



Peach* hous*. — Where there are large and long-established 

 trees in the Peach-house, the moisture is rapidly absorbed in 

 such weather as we now have, and attention to giving thorough 

 waterings is essential to the welfare of the present crop, and the 

 formation of wood for another year. For watering and syringing 

 use soft water, of a temperature from 65° or 70°. After the 

 stoning process is over, the fruit, if too thick, should be thinned. 



Cherry -house.— During the ripening of the fruit, when the 

 quantity of moisture, both at the root and in the atmosphere, is 

 diminished, insects will increase rapidly. Take means to eradi- 

 cate them immediately after the crop is gathered, and supply 

 the trees with wa'er sufficient for their health. 



Strawberries.— Endeavour to keep these free from insects, by 

 fumigating and syringing, till the fruit begins to ripen, as these 

 means cannot afterwards be put in practice without injury to the 

 flavour of the fruit. The plants that have done fruiting may be 

 planted out, to furnish early runners for potting— choosing a 

 warm situation, where the soil is somewhat strong and rich. 



Melons.— Attend particularly to the advancing shoots, and 

 keep them at such a distance apart as will allow the leaves to 

 expand without shading each other. The laterals must be cut 

 away to a few of the best situated for bearers. Continue to add 

 soil to the hills or ridges as the roots advance. The Melon-plants 

 put out early, may now have the whole of the soil put into the 

 pit or frame, pressing it firmly down if it is dry. Sow some seed 

 for successional crops. — G. F. 



V.— HARDY FRUIT AND KITCHEN-GARDEN. 



Newly Planted Trees will require to be well watered in this dry 



weather, and atterwards mulched, ftsinff in general cases, dry 



litter in preference to short manure, as the latter will be apt to 



make the tree grow too rampant. The season has as yet been 



very favourable for Apricots and Peaches, setting their fruit. 



Both will now need partial disbudding, removing only a few 



Shoots at a time, that the flow of the nap may not be checked. 



Pick out the points of strong shoots, which will ensure healthy 



bearing wood. I make a point of saving carefully every twig of 



a Peach tree I remove at this season, as Ifludade action of them 



after being bruised, better for cleaning the trees of green-fly, 



&c.« than any application of snuff dusting, tobacco smoking, or 



mud daubing. 



Beans and Peas.— After sowing, soak the drills with water be- 

 fore covering the seed. After filling up the drills, spread dry 

 earth over the rows, which will pre vent the moisture evaporating. 

 Sow Savoys for autumn and early winter use; Lettuces, of sorts 

 for succession ; Granges* Cauliflower Broccoli* to succeed the au- 

 tumn Cauliflower; Miller 9 * Late White Broccoli, to supply the 

 table before the earliest Cauliflower comes in in May. This last 

 variety, from its great usefulness, and dwarf compact growth, 

 deserves a place in every garden. Mushrooms.— Make beds for 

 summer produce. Choose the coolest situation you can find; if 

 underground so much the better. In answer to 4 * J. P.," sweep 

 off any spawn that runs on the surface of the bed with a broom, 

 or the palm of the hand. This will be a matter of no difficulty if 

 the beds are as hard and smooth on the surface as they ought to 

 be. Routine.— Make fresh beds for Cucumbers— much fermenting 

 material will not now be wanted; prick out Celery, sow for the 

 last crop : pot Capsicums and Tomatoes, water Cauliflower, 

 Broccoli, &c. ; watch your chance of a shower for transplanting; 

 layout paths for walking on round the various quarters; hoe 

 and rake borders, and get the main walks put in good order for 

 the season. — R. F. 



Vf.— ARBORICULTURE. 



Old Woods.— In this department there is nothing particular to 

 recommend, but what has been said previously ; until the felling 

 of Oaks and other trees of which bark is required commences. 

 Felling and peeling should be commenced as soon as the sap 

 flows freely, which circumstance should be carefully attended to, 

 as it is the best season for such work. 



Coppice.— The cutting of all poles, rods, &c, should be com- 

 pleted as soon as convenient before the peeling of Oak-poles 

 commences ; take great care to have the fences in good repair so 

 as to keep out sheep and cattle. 



Young Plantations.— The thinning of young plantations it is 

 presumed is now nearly completed for this season, except where 

 young Larches are felled for the bark, the felling and peeling of 

 which should be commenced as soon as the bark will separate 

 freely. All newly-planted trees should be carefully attended to 

 now, fastening them well at the roots to prevent them from 

 blowing about. 



Hedge- Rows. —The fastening of any newly-planted trees should 

 be carefully attended to, as it tends much to their success. 



Nursery Work.— Continue to sow Nuts, seeds, kernels, &c, and 

 plant in rows all seedlings and other small plants as soon as pos- 

 sible. Be sure not to let the roots get dry during the operation j 

 endeavour to preserve carefully the newly-sown seeds, Nuts, 

 kernels, &c. f from birds and mice. — W. B.

Notices to Correspondents. 



Bkks.— Wax may sen Wildman's Mahogany Hive at Milton's, 

 No. 10, Great Marylebone-street, or at Neighbour and Son's, 

 Oxford-street, London.— W. S. A L«rf>/.— Nutt's hive cer- 

 tainly does not prevent swarming;, nor does any other hive 

 made of any material of the like dimensions. The principal 

 causes of Bees swarming are, an over-crowded population, 

 and oftentimes poverty, with a prospect of Royal progeny 

 succeeding the departure of tl e parent Queen. Bees are known 

 to have been kept in a colony of boxes for 12 years without 

 swarming ; but there is nothing mysterious in that. A prolific 

 Queen, and a good situation, with almost any sized hive, is 

 favourable to swarming; but if sufficient space is given to the 

 stock hive very early in spring, with suitable inducements 

 to enter, and where the combs can be attached near the body 

 of the Bees, it is a means of preventing ;swarming. All small 

 flights should be returned to the parent stock unless in very 

 favourable situations, or where it is desirable to increase the 

 number of stocks.— W. Savage, Swaffham. 



Calceolarias.— .4 Reader.— \t you sow well-ripened seeds of 

 these in pots or pans, filled with soil of a light nature, and 

 press the seeds gently into the soil, without covering them 

 with mould, they will vegetate quickly. They should be placed 

 in a gentle hot- bed, and watered with a watering-pot having a 

 very fine rose. We have seen trellises used on flued walls out 

 of doors, opposite the furnaces, where the trees are liable to be 

 injured by the heat j but never over the whole wall. t—Hospitis. 

 —As your terms are limited, and the price of flowers frequently 

 depends upon the stock a seller has on hand, your best plan is 

 to write to a respectable Florist, stating your terms, and get 

 him to send you the best he can afford at the price.* 



Camellias.— Hospitis.— If in vigorous health, let their roots 

 alone for the present, and repot them next year, when they are 

 about to grow again. Keep the plants in-doors during all the 

 growing period, and when their wood is made, turn them out 

 of doors in a sheltered sunny place during the summer. If you 

 keep them too much in the shade, they will not form flower-buds 



abundantly. J. IF. -For grafting these, well-ripened young 



shoots should be taken, when they are just beginning to grow 

 and before the buds axe far advanced. They should be worked 

 upon healthy young stocks, which should afterwards be placed 

 under hand-glasses in a stove or forcing-house, where a temper 

 a'ure of from 60° to 70° is kept up. Whip-grafting;, without the 

 tongue, is perhaps the best method ; and it is advisable to 

 retain a few leaves on the stock above the graft, in order to 

 draw up the sap. The Single Red makes the best stock, as it 

 strikes freely from cuttings. Orange-trees may be grafted in 

 nearly the same way ; but if a little bottom-heat can be given 

 them, so much the oetter.t 



Currants.— Tiro.— We should think that calico, properly pre- 

 pared with Whitney's composition, and put over your Currant- 

 bushes, would protect their blossoms, and help to ripen their 

 fruit earlier.* 



Fountains.— T. J . M.A.— Upon further consideration we see 

 that there is no describing the contrivances for jets, and we 

 have no woodcuts ready. You had therefore better apply to 

 some engineer for patterns, or consult the " Revue Horticole,"

Rockwork.— An Inquirer.— If Roman cement does not boU 

 together the stones in your rockwork it is because of one or 

 the other of two things : either the cement is bad, or it is badiv 

 applied. No better material can be had. 



Strawbkrribs.— Amateur. Thanks. It is probable that row 

 Strawberries have too much water in proportion to the liebt 

 and heat they are exposed to. If so, the remedy is obvious. 



Vines.— J. 3/, — If a piece of bast is tied tightly round the stem 

 of a Vine, its buds will burst better below the bast thao would 

 be the case under the same circumstances if the bast were 

 away. The reason is, that a tight ligature presses upon the 

 sap-vessels below the bark, and prevents the sap rising up to 

 the end buds so quickly as it naturally does ; the effect of which 

 is, to force the sap into the lateral buds. 



Water.— Jlus.— Without knowing what it is that makes yoor 

 water hard, we can hardly advise you how to soften it. Why 

 not try for yourself whether common soda will answer the 

 purpose; and if not that, whether carbonate of ammonia, 

 (common smelling salts), will not do? In either case, very 



small quantities must be used. J. S.— To every 100 lbs. 



weight of water add 2$ lbs. of common salt, and it will be about 

 as strong as sea water ; but as sea water contains the muriate 

 and sulphate of magnesia in notable quantity, they too are 

 iequired to complete the resemblance ; say .J lb. of each to the 

 same quantity of water. Drench the Asparagus beds two or 

 three times when the summer growth is about to be made, and 

 is a little advanced. 



Miscellaneous.—//. P.— We cannot recommend nurserymen. 

 —.4 Subscriber.— You cannot keep Mosses from greening the 

 stone of your house, because their seeds are always floating in 

 the air, and wherever they find a place they like, there they grow. 

 A solution of corrosive sublimate would perhaps clear tie 

 stonework, but it might become black by exposure to air, mi 

 it is very dangerous to apply. Your only remedy, as far as we 

 know, is to paint the stonework, when perfectly dry— if it i> 



ever so. AT. O.— Anti-corrosive paint is an excellent matenal 



for out-door work ; but it is not suited for painting the «oat« 

 of movable sashes, because of its roughness. — R< *f- "*
