New and Greatly Enlarged Edition of 
PRACTICAL FLORICULTURE, 
A Guide to the Successful Cultivation of 
FLORISTS’ PLANTS, 
For the Amateur and Professional Florist. 
By PETER HENDERSON. 
Author of “ Gardening for Profit," and “ Gardening 
for Pleasure." 
ILLUSTRATED. 
This valuable work, by Mr. Henderson, has become well 
known and deservedly popular everywhere. In It not only 
Is the whole “ art and mystery ” of propagation explained, 
but the reader is taught how to plant and grow the plants 
after they have been propagated. The work is not one for 
florists and gardeners only, but the amateur’s wants are 
constantly kept in mind, and we have a very complete 
treatise on the cultivation of flowers under glaBS, or in the 
open air, suited to those who grow flowers for pleasure, as 
well as those who make them a matter of trade. The work 
Is characterized by the same radical common sense that 
marked the author’s “ Gardening for Profit,” and “ Garden¬ 
ing for Pleasure,” and it holds a high place in the estimation 
of lovers of floriculture. The important additions of new 
matter that have been made to the present edition, have 
been written mainly as general answers to hundreds of 
questions that have suggested themselves to those already 
in possession of the first and second editions of this work.
