POPULAR HOUSE PLANTS 
For the Winter Window Garden 
Specially selected for their desirability for indoor cultivation. Given 
a location where they will not be subjected to violent changes in tem- 
perature, and where they will receive direct sunlight for at least part of 
the day, the flowering plants should thrive and bloom successfully. 
Where no direct sunlight may be had, it is better to confine the selec- 
tion entirely to foliage plants, including: Asparagus, Achyranthes, 
Coleus, Ivy, Lemon Verbena and Vitis. Care should be taken regarding 
the watering of the plants. The soil should be kept moderately moist 
at all times, but never in a soggy condition. Naturally evaporation 
takes place faster during the winter months when there is artificial 
heat in the home, than at other times.

Plants listed on this page, $5.50.
