Mountain _Avens.--See_ "Dryas."

Muhlenbeckia Complexa.--A very decorative climber, hardy in nature but

requiring a good amount of sunshine to make it bloom. A well-drained,

sandy soil is best for its growth, and it can be increased by cuttings

of hardy shoots taken early in summer. Height, 6 ft.

Mulberries.--Any good soil will grow the Mulberry. The tree is hardy,

but the fruit wants plenty of sunshine to bring it to perfection. It

may be propagated by cuttings of wood one year old with a heel two

years old attached. The only pruning necessary is to keep the branches

well balanced. Autumn is the time to do this, not forgetting that the

fruit is borne on the young wood. When grown in tubs or large pots

in the greenhouse the fruit attains the perfection of flavour. In

addition to the Large Black and the White (Morus Alba) the New Weeping

Russian White may be recommended.
