in a cool, sunny window. , , ... 
Window plants are a source of health if they are themselves healthy; 
but if deceased, vou may he sure it is wiser to pitch them out-of-doors.

from mildew, inside and out.

not show bloom until after July, hut they are a brilliant sight from theu 
until cut down by the frost.
