Stove Plants. 
In the growing se^on the heat should be kept to 65^ and upwards, and the syringe used 
freely at least twice daily. Evaporating troughs should be filled, and air given according to the 
state of the wind and outdoor temperature. A rise of temperature from sun heat (not fire heat) up 
to 90*^ will be more beneficial than otherwise, providing the atmosphere is moist ; dry heat must 
be avoided. Most of the plants in this section require peat soil, or a mixture of peat and loam, with 
a little old manure, sand, and leaf-mould. Liquid manure, or top-dressing with artificial manure, 
is beneficial to all when well established, if free growth and profusion of bloom are desired.
