3 ^ pots, say 2 or 3 inch pots, shifting them, if successful, into 6 in. pots, r® 

 (y in which they may flower. When preparing soil for removing and x 

 repotting, increase the quantity of strong loam, as they require good 

 heavy soil to bloom them luxuriantly. To make large plants for out- 

 door flowering, plant those which have been already one year in the 

 pot, as they make a more robust plant for out-door culture. Good 

 healthy plants arranged in proper colors, exhibit a gay appearance 

 along a fence or wall in the months of September and October ; but 

 every one knows the showy Chrysanthemum from chrysos golden and 

 anthos gr. flower. They may be pegged down in masses for bedding, 

 or tied to stakes, or trained to the trellis; they are a most accommo- 

 dating family of plants.
