dening authorities there. It suits all kinds of plants, is only half as lieavy as earth, and cleaner to handle ; 
requires no soil to mix with it, and no manure. It increases tlie size and the brilliancy of flowers. Seeds germi- 
nate, and cuttings root in it, quicker than in earth. Owing to its spongy nature, it retains water much longer 
than earth. Plants transplanted in .Jadoo Fibre do not flag, even if in full'bloom.

and drink to plants of all kinds. It can be \ised on plants that are grown in earth or in Jadoo Fibre.
