Many varieties have been introduced into Florida and many 

 have also originated there. In late years many varieties have 

 been introduced into California from that State. After fruiting, 

 the majority of these -also proved a further duplication of vari- 

 eties under different names. Some of them are still grown, 

 but only to a limited extent. The Botelka is extensively grown 

 by A. Scott Chapman at San Gabriel. He considers it profit- 

 able to grow, owing to its good shipping qualities. It is also 

 grown in different portions of the northern part of the State.

Planting the Seed.— The best time to plant orange seed is 

 in the months of March and April, and even in May and June. 

 Early planting is not recommended, because it does not give 

 good results. When planted too early many seeds decay, wait- 

 ing for spring, their time of germination. The seed-bed should 

 be kept moist, but not too wet.
