Illustrated Catalogue of Trees, Plants , &c. 
V iolets — Sweet-scented . 
These deliciously-scented and ever welcome favourites, so extremely useful as cut flowers for bouquets, button-boles, &c., may, with 
a little management, be bad in abundant bloom throughout the Winter and Spring months— a time when they are especially valuable. 
The stock Plants should be divided in April or early in May and planted out in rich soil in a partially shaded position, the doubles in 
rows one foot apart, and nine inches apart in the rows, the singles one foot apart each way. As growth commences, the young shoots 
or runners should be removed and the plants should be watered in the evening in dr}- weather, whilst if extra fine plants are required, 
they should have a mulching of well-decayed manure from an old mushroom bed or cucumber frame. Towards the end of September 
the plants may be lifted and planted into specially prepared frames placed in a south aspect, and partially filled with stable litter, 
leaves, &c., with about six or eight inches of soil on the top. The plants should be placed sufficiently closo together to fairly fill the 
space without crowding, and should be as near the glass as the foliage will admit. When planted, give a thorough watering and keep 
close for a few days, after which admit air freely at every opportunity through the Wiuter. The glass may be entirely removed in 
sunny weather when there is no frost, and in all mild weather plenty of ventilation should be given. Marie Louise , Count Srazza’s, 
and Neapolitan are the best of the doubles to be grown in this way, and when treated as recommended above will produce some grand 
flowers.
