ing basket and sent down runners with 

 tiny plantlets just as the strawberry plants 

 do. The leaves are round and of a 

 pleasing red color. Is that the proper 

 name and where can it be had ? I have 

 never seen it listed in any catalogue.

Have any of you tried the peppermint 

 geranium ? The foliage is beautiful, soft 

 and velvety, and the odor is very refresh-

SUCCESS WITH WINTER PLANTS. 



I will tell the lovers of The Floral 

 World how I manage my winter plants, 



such as geraniums, foliages, primroses 

 and umbrella plants. I have all my flow- 

 ers at a south window where they get the 

 most sun all day. I have them arranged 

 on a table two and a half feet across, and 

 on one side I fastened a stout wire with 

 nails and bent it over the top of the table 

 to the height of three feet and fastened it 

 to the other side of the table, then set 

 some pretty vine at one side and let it run 

 over to the other side. I will tell you 

 how I succeed with my umbrella plant. 

 I filled a china pot with good rich soil to 

 within three inches of the top, and placed 

 my plant, putting a layer of little rock on 

 on the roots, then filled the pot with 

 water. I can almost see the plant grow. 

 Give your plants a bath with warm water 

 once a week and then you will hear your 

 friends say, " O my, your plants look so
