OPERATIONS FOR SEPTEMBER. 
Acacias, may now be increased. 
BoRONiA PiNNATA may still be propagated in a pot of sand, under a hand- 
glass. They must be watered and shaded with great caution, or the cuttings will 
damp off. 
Clianthus puniceus now propagated, will make good plants for next sea- 
son ; the flowering- shoots should be rejected in selecting the cuttings. 
CoLUMNEA scANDENS, &c., cuttiugs wiil now succeed if put in sand, under a 
bell-glass, in a moderate cool part of the propagating house. 
Fuchsias. Cuttings of these plants may now be put in. They wiil require 
air occasionally while in the striking pot, on account of the young members being 
liable to damp off, if the glass be not sometimes removed. 
Hydrangea hortensis now in full bloom, should have a good supply of water, 
to enable it to support and retain its colours. 
Illicium floridanum, anisatum, &c., may now be propagated from cuttings 
with success. 
Kennedya dilatata, &c., may now be put in. 
Manettia cordifolia may, with success, be propagated any time this 
month. See Vol. II. pages 85, 87. 267. 
Nerine Sarniensis, or Guernsey lily, should early this month (if not done 
as recommended last month) be potted, observing, while growing, to give them a 
good supply of air and water ; other autumnal bulbs may now be planted. 
PoRTULACA Gilliesii. Young plants of this handsome species should be 
raised this month ; they strike freely from the leaf, or a small portion of the stem 
in a pot, with a very little heat under a hand-glass. Obtain a good stock before 
winter sets in, for they are apt to go off during that season. 
Primula, auricula, &c., now sown, and the young plants kept through the 
winter, will next season make strong plants for flowering the succeeding spring. 
ScoTTiA den TATA. Cuttings of this plant may now be propagated. See 
Boronia. 
Trevirana coccinea should now be supplied with plenty of water. 
TROPiEOLUM PENTAPHYLLUM, &c., now propagated, will make pretty plants 
for next season's use. They will strike tolerably free in a pot of sand, carefully 
watered under a hand-glass.
