LEAF STARTING is treacherous in Fall—not Nature’s time. For success, use extra care. A glass over each is a simple precaution. A good 
Starter-Mix Is 4 parts coarse vermiculite, 1 part sand and 1 part screened peatmoss, thoroughly mixed. Avoid a fine vermiculite; 
in time it packs. We prefer the coarse grade called Zonolite, obtainable at most lumber yards. Avoid any grade of vermiculite in 
potting soil, as through experimentation we have found even the coarse grade, in soil, will eventually disintegrate and pack.
