 " Kengai " (overlianging) shape. 



COLl.l-Xi lOX OF DWARFED TREES. 



Treated as above this plant is \ er\' ornamental 

 on balconies, terraces, etc. If this plant is kept in- 

 doors it should alicays be ])laced out-of-doors at 

 night and as often as it is not wanted 

 for decoration. In-doors it should never be ex- 

 posed to the dry heat from a stove or open fire- 

 place otherwise the leaves will drop off and j^lant 

 perish. 



Pinus pentaphylla and i)ine trees in L;eneral 

 growing in jardinieres rec^uire the attention in 

 watering and general treatment as Thuja obtusa, 

 but are not so much influenced by atmospheric 

 conditions, nevertheless sun and air are necessary 

 to maintain health therefore keep the i)lants out- 

 of-doors as much as possible. 



Maples and other deciduous trees take the 

 same treatment as Thuja obtusa as regards water- 

 ing but are much more accomuKxlating than ever- 

 greens ; in fairly mild climates, tlic maples may 

 remain out-of-doors all winter, but w here the fr(^st 

 is very severe they should be kept in a cellar after 

 the leaves have fallen in autiuim, the soil must 

 always be kept moist but not icd ; early in spring 

 put the plant out-(^f-doors and fulh' exposed to all 

 weathers and when in full leaf use Un' decoration 

 in-doors as needed. 



Manukint;: — When the trees commence 

 growing in spring AVe give manure twice a month 

 .say, March, April, May and June, again September 

 and October, in the hot days of July and August
