GREENHOUSE AND CONSERVATORY.

Cinerarias.--The plants intended for large specimens must receive their

final shift, and be allowed sufficient space to expand their foliage

without interfering with or injuring each other. The side-shoots to be

tied out.

Epacrises.--As some of them will be preparing to burst into flower, a

little arrangement may be necessary in tying them out to display their

spikes of bloom more advantageously.

Fuchsias.--If wanted early, the plants that were first put to rest

should be selected, and be fresh potted, cutting back the roots,

beginning with a small-sized pot; to be shifted into larger when the

roots have extended to the outside of the ball. Place them in a nice

moist temperature of 50 deg. by day and 40 deg. by night.

Heaths.--To be looked over, and the dead and decaying leaves removed.

The most forward in bud--such as the _Vestitas_, _Vernix_, _Vasciflora_,

_Aristata_, _Beaumontia_, and many others, to be tied out, and arranged

for the season.

Pelargoniums.--When large specimens are wanted, tie out the branches at

equal distances, and down as near to the rim of the pot as possible.

Air to be given at all favourable opportunities. Water to be given but

sparingly, and not overhead.
