SUGGESTIONS FOR CULTURE OF CASCADES 
@ FOREWORD—Plants to be used for cascading effects are chosen hbe- 
cause of their natural habit of producing a bushy growth and strong, 
flexible stems clothed with an abundance of florescent splendor. 
SOILS—Satisfactory results may be obtained by using a good, pro- 
ductive garden soil. Maximum results may best be had by the use of 
a compost prepared according to the specifications of any one of numer- 
ous formulae suitable for the purpose. We suggest that you try a mix- 
ture composed of one part well-rotted steer manure, one part thoroughly 
decomposed leaf mold and two parts fairly heavy loam. 
POTTING—Upon arrival plant should be placed in a 4 or 6 inch 
pot, size to be determined by stage of root development. Subsequent 
changes to increasingly larger pots must be made as the need arises. 
Fach change should be accomplished before roots have had an oppor- 
tunity to become pot-bound. Normally, July 15th should find plant per- 
manently established in a 10 or 12 inch pot. 
WATERING—Space adequate for watering purposes must be. left 
at top of pot. Watering should be attended to daily and sufficiently early 
to insure superficial dryness of foliage before nightfall. 
FERTILIZERS—Although liquid fertilizers compounded from animal 
manure are considered old-fashioned and are in truth a bit messy in the 
manner of their making they are none the less effective when properly 
applied. Commercial fertilizers have come into general use, are readily 
available and convenient to handle. Your dealer is doubtless qualified to 
choose the one most suitable for your specific need should you elect to 
use some form of the latter. : 
FEEDING—The plant must be fed more or less sparingly at bi- 
weekly intervals. After each application of fertilizer careful study of the 
progress of growth being made by the plant and the condition of its 
foilage should give you a clue as to the amount and strength you need
