CHOICE 

 HARDY FERNS. 



Suitable positions for Hardy Ferns are to 

 be found in almost every garden. With few 

 exceptions they do best in a shady or semi- 

 shady position in rich but well-drained soil, 

 where they can be liberally supplied with 

 water during dry weather. W here the soil 

 is stiff or clayey, incorporate a liberal quan- 

 tity of leaf-mould, peat or other loose ma- 

 terial to make it friable.
