MISCELLANEOUS PLANTS & BOOTS 
ASPARAGUS PLANTS. 
An abundance of fine Asparagus may be grown with less than half the expense usually 
incurred in making costly “ beds,” and will suoceed admirably on most soils when planted in 
lines or clumps on the Kitchen Garden borders, or amongst dwarf-gTowing Fruits where the 
spaoe will admit, a liberal cultivation being all that is required to ensure the best results. The 
roots are liable to injury if removed during severe weather in Winter. They are best planted when 
growth has commenced in Spring, and when they oan be oarefully taken up and packed so as to 
travel a long journey, without injury. They should, however, in all cases be planted as quickly 
as possible after receiving them. We oonsider March and April the best months for planting.

RHUBARB. 
One of the most useful, wholesome, and profitable of garden plants. The ground for this 
should be well broken up and manured, and the plants should be 2 J to 3 feet apart. March is the 
best month for planting, but it is not advisable to pull any of the stalks the first season for fear of 
unduly weakening the growth. A top-dressing of well-decayed manure in Winter is very beneficial. 
CHAMPAGNE. Deep red stems, early, one of the very best for general use. each2s.; per doz. 21s.

SEA KALE. 
This valuable esoulent is easily forced if care is taken only to apply heat gradually, as it 
will not succeed if placed in too high a temperature at starting. Place several crowns a few 
inches apart in large pots, and stand them in a temperature of about 45 degrees, with an 
inverted pot placed over each to exclude light and insure blanching ; a mushroom house, pit 
or cellar, will do well for this purpose. Sea Kale may also be easily forced in the open ground by 
covering it over with large specially made pots, and applying fermenting material. The heads 
should be cut when in about the condition shown in illustration, and taken off in the same way.
