Conclusions 
Prom the success with the bell jars it can be taken 
that most of the plants that are rather difficult to 
propagate will root easily with a little extra heat. 
On the whole it is advisable to -leave one or two 
leaves per cutting. ’ , 
Sand pits are most useful, comparatively little fails M. P 
in them, those under cover being the most efiective as 
watering cannot be controlled in those outside and also 
there is greet damage done by insects. 
A c-ood rooting medium is a mixture of half send and 
half coconut fibre.
