and Miscellaneous Particulars. 
months The art of producing a very large plant is to begin with pots of a small size, and shift frequently 
during two years, till at last the plant occupies a pot of a foot or more in diameter. Rich light soil should be 
used, but no animal manures or recent dung, a.s these are found very injurious. Cuttings of the roots
