Cultural Instructions 
When received plants should be placed in a vat of water for 2 or 3 hours, 
then cleaned with a strong stream of water and a pair of tv. eezers. They 
should be set in good sandy clay loam to which a very small amount of 
slacked lime has been added, if soil does not contain lime. If roots inter¬ 
fere in potting, they may be removed. In case roots are cut off dry 
thoroughly in hot sun or in any dry hot atmosphere after removing and 
reset on a small pocket of sand. If any plant shows decay, cut out the 
bad tissue and place in hot dry position. They transplant at any season, 
but much better in the hot summer months. If set outdoors they should 
have a well drained position or if potted the pot should be y 2 full of rocks. 
They will not stand wet, soggy soil. All plants are named on tag and 
color, shade or sun indicated. The plants in this shipment are not nurs¬ 
ery grown. They are shipped as removed from natural position where 
they have been subject to zero temperature. They stand hard freezing 
without injury but will not stand too much water. They are shipped 
rough, as in cleaning they absorb their weight in vcater and make excess¬ 
ive carrying charges. All orders shipped same day received. I sell to 
the trade only.
