 t^" Many suppose it is necessary to have their vines forwarded in the pots ; but this is an error, except in the 

 growing season. For transportation, the plants should be taken out of the pots, and packed securely in moss. The 

 vines will go safer in this way, and the expense of carriage will be greatly reduced.
