FLOWER GROWERS' AND GARDENERS' REQUISITES. 



Henderson's Prepared Potting Soil. One of the principal elements 

 of success in the growing and flowering of plants and bulbs is 

 proper soil. This '• Prepared Potting Soil " is the same that we 

 use in our extensive greenhouses. As needed we mix with it 

 peat, sand and pure raw ground bone meal — it is then friable, 

 rich, and will cause plants to grow and bloom luxuriantly. 



Leaf Mold. One of the most essential ingredients in plant grow- 

 ing, in fact indispensable for Ferns, etc. 



Rotted (Sandy) Peat. Fine for lightening soil, for sowing fine 

 seeds, for Azaleas, Palms, Begonias, etc., mixed with garden soil. 



Sphagnum Moss. Extensively used for filling fern and orchid 

 baskets, mixing with potting soil, covering tops of pots to 

 preserve moisture, packing plants and cuttings, etc., etc. 



Fibrous Peat. Used for potting Orchids. Ferns, etc. ; very useful 

 for many purposes. Price of Potting Soil. Moss, Peat and Leaf 

 Mold, 250. per peck bag, $1.00 per bushel bag, $2.00 per bag 

 containing about one barrel (purchaser to pay fivight). 



Bamboo or Cane Stakes. Six to ten feet long and largely used 

 for staking Chrysanthemums, Roses, etc. Price, $1.25 per 100, 

 $10.00 per 1,000 (purchaser to pay freight!.
