MANAGEMENT OF PLANTS. 
In placing the Plants in the rooms or conservatories, 
those with light, thin or succulent leaves, as the Gera¬ 
nium, Fuchsia, Rose, and also the fine-leaved Plants, 
such as Heaths, Acacias, &c., and herbaceous kinds, 
as Primulas, Daisies, and all Frutrescent or Half 
Shrubby Plants, should be placed near the windows 
or on the front shelves of the conservatory, as they 
require more sun and light than the thick coriaceous 
leaved Plants, as Orange, Lemon, Ficus, Camellia, 
&c., which may be placed at the back of the conserv¬ 
atories, for, if exposed to the full sun early in the Fall, 
or late in the Spring, the leaves are apt to turn yellow. 
In the house, where the windows are filled with the 
plants that require the sun, the thick leaved plants, 
such as Camellias and others, may be placed in other 
rooms, where they obtain light, without much sun, 
till they come into Flower, they can then be removed 
where wanted, to flower, after which they can be 
placed back again, till the season for setting them out 
of the house for Summer. 
While the plants are in the house, they should be 
turned round occasionally, that the leaves may grow 
out regularly, and not crowd so close together as to 
interfere with each other, but have sufficient room to 
extend themselves. 
When-Plants are seen to wilt from too much sun, 
they should be removed to a more shady place, and 
others put in their stead, and should have as much air 
as can be admitted in fine days, by opening the windows 
of the conservatory, and if open for an hour or two, 
they will be benefited.
