« « AnAppraisal » » 
The Flower Grower — To those interested in the horticultural 
magazines the growth of The Flower Grower has been very 
satisfying. It has come to fill the place once held by the old 
Garden Magazine. Authoritative articles on native plants have 
been featured as well as all other phases of gardening. 
Published monthly for $2.00 per year. 
Real Gardening—Is a new and good departure; a magazine 
without advertising. Robert Lemmon, well known for his work 
with native plants, is the editor. Here is expert writing and 
photography, all for the ordinary gardener. ‘“High-class without 
being High-hat’”, one reader says. 
Published monthly for $3.00 per year. 
The National Horticultural Magazine — Is the Journal of the 
American Horticultural Society. Superb photography and com- 
prehensive articles by the keenest of our garden writers. Fre- 
quently explores the use of native plants. An incentive to greater 
gardening.

Gardener’s Chronicle— Fills the need of gardeners for a 
monthly publication of practical, down-to-the-soil gardening 
information. It is the official organ of the National Association 
of Gardeners and the American Rock Garden Society. Member- 
ship in the latter is $3.50 a year and also includes the Year Book 
and Saxiflora, short monographs on rock garden plants. 
Horticulture — Short articles and a news coverage of garden 
events all over the country make this an indispensible magazine. 
Notes by Stephen Hamblin and Will Curtis of Garden-in-the- 
Woods have far exceeded in worth to us its cost.

There are, undoubtedly, difficult times ahead for all of us, and 
even so vital a part of one’s life as gardening needs stimulation.
