in a dark part of the house, where other plants will not 
grow, studying to have the most tender kinds in the warmest 
part, and giving gentle waterings every three or four weeks. 
When all are arranged, give them a proper syringing, after 
which wipe clean all the stages, benches, &c, sweeping out 
all litter, and wash clean the pavement, which will give to all 
a neat and becoming appearance. 
Let the waterings now be done in the mornings, as often 
and in such cpuantitics as will supply their respective wants, 
examining the plants every day. 
During the continuance of mild weather, the circulation 
of air must be as free as possible, opening the doors and front 
and top sashes regularly over the house. But observe in 
frosty nights to keep all closely shut. Be attentive in clear- 
ing off decayed leaves and insects. 
Any plants of Lagerstroemia, Stercidia, Hydrangea, Pome- 
grandte, and others equally hardy, that are deciduous, 
may be kept perfectly in a dry, light, airy cellar : give fre- 
quent admissions of air, and one or two waterings during 
winter.

they should be turned out of the old earth, and planted in 
fresh soil. They are both pretty, low-growing, double white 
flowering plants, and require a shaded situation. The latter 
is now called Thalictrum a nemo neo ides. (Soil No. 11.) 
Daphne is a genus of diminutive shrubs, mostly ever- 
greens of great beauty and fragrance. Very few species of 
them are in our collections. D. odora, frequently called D. 
indicu, is an esteemed plant for the delightful odour of its 
flowers, and valuable for the period of its flowering, being 
from December to March, according to the situation ; leaves 
scattered, oblong, lanceolate and smooth ; flowers small white, 
in many flowered terminal heads ; there is a variety equally 
as fine with marginated foliage. D. odora rubra, the buds 
are red, and the flowers rose white, of a delightful spicy fra- 
grance. D. hybrida is a species in high estimation art pre- 
sent in Europe, but little known here, being only in a few
