PALMS FROM SEED. 



A few years ago I sent for the seed of 

 five different varieties of palms. When 

 the seed arrived I soaked them in warm 

 water for forty-eight hours. In the mean- 

 time I prepared a box with soil composed 

 of one half sand, the other half good, 

 rich, garden soil. I planted my seed in 

 rows and kept the ground moist. Ever>^ 

 morning I would look for some sign of 

 life, but six weeks or more passed before 

 my labor was rewarded. Then a filifera 

 seed sent up a green sprig. Months 

 passed and then the seeds in two other 

 rows sprouted forth, but picture my dismay 

 — they all appeared alike. Yet I had 

 patience and transplanted them into sep- 

 arate pots and always kept the soil moist. 

 It was nearly two years when the true 

 characteristic leaves showed themselves. 

 Today I have three varieties of palms, 

 filifera, pheonix and the latana borbonica. 

 These plants are beautiful, and seldom, if 

 ever, are seen more splendid specimens 

 of these varieties. ' 'Schubert. ' '

[Palms can easily be grown from seed in the 

 manner which you describe. The difficulty is gen- 

 erally to obtain fresh seed that will germinate. 

 Many persons have experienced your disappoint- 

 ment in confusing the embry and character leaves ] . 



KEEPING UP A SUCCESSION OF 

 BLOOM. 



Wishing to stimulate a clump of peonies 

 to produce the largest flowers possible 

 next spring, I covered the earth thickly 

 with stable manure, watering thoroughly 

 through August and September, thinking 

 the liquid would be utilized in time to 

 produce extra strong crown buds before 

 freezing weather. On opposite sides grew 

 white perennial phlqx .aiid larkspur. 

 These received full benefit of the manure 

 and watering. The phlox being four feet
