Most of them are commonly used in_ horticultural books but a few are of our own invention: (C-27) means to see cultural direction numb- er 27, which will be found in the back of the Catalog; if a letter follows the number, then see, also the directions under the letter given. The letters L and D means that germination takes place better if the seed pan is in a dark part of the room and L for light, means that it should be towards the window but never, of course, in direct sunshine; the let- ters, C and W following these letters means, cool and warm, and in a general way indicate the temperature the seed pan should be kept at; night temperatures, as a rule, should be 5 degrees lower than the day temperature. The zone number—(IX)—means the ap- proximate section north the plant will stand the winters; refer to the zone map which has been published in the Magazine, in the past. HOW TO ORDER. Too many orders and letters are receive¢ with the name or address not plainly written, please print. If the symbols on each seea listing are given, it will make it possible to fill your order quicker. Remittances of less than $1.00 can be made in stamps. Try. to use our regular order blank; it has spaces for our filling records and it use will tend towards a faster service as well as easier to handle. FOREIGN CUSTOMERS Customers in any foreign country not mentioned above and in which currency regulations are such as to prevent the secur- ing of money orders, I will accept your currency at the regular exchange rates. 1 HARRY E.

It is best to transplant seedlings once; as thi roots of Asters are shallow, use care in cultivating. Make succession plantings for continuous bloom but when possible use different types which flower at different times. All strains offered are wilt-resistant unless otherwise noted; germination, 12-14 days. Asters flower best during long-day per- iods (short nights); rather low intensities of light used either at start of day or at end, will induce flowering earlier; C-11. You can sow Asters for the GH, Aug. 15th for fis late in Feb.; grow at 50 F. In this case you will have to give them light from germination till plants are 20-24 in. high; space hem about 8X8 inches.

A few of the species can be reclassified as the genera are not entirely agreed uypon as yet. Seed will not always be available for immediate delivery, so do not expect them to be hand- ed like Zinnias. There are several good kinds offered for the greenhouse and as a rule seed is avail- able most of the year. When ordering plants, add 25¢ extra for postage when your order is less than $1.00; the initial postage charge is too higt for single plant orders; of course, plants are shipped in spring and fall months. FERN SPORE CULTURE: First, fern spores are not difficult to germinate. Sow thinly on the surface of moist humus-rich soil, in pots or pans. Sterilizing the soil is best but wet the soil with strained water washed from rich humus soil. Keep soil moist but only by immersion, never by overhead watering. Gentle warmth and darkness tends to start germination; cover pans with glass; wipe condensation off every morning. Growth is at first indicated by green pat- ches on surface (note by good reading glass). It is at first tiny, flat plants with sort of heart-shaped leaves, which really is the plant itself, and not a leaf. Unlike seeds. which are the result of fertilization, the fern spore has not been fertilized and ths now takes place on the underside of the first s-owth. From this union an egg is produced, which developes into the fern proper. When these young plants are large enough to be handled, they must be prick- ed off seperately into small pots to be grown on. In growing the various species offered, consider their uses; some are strictly trop- ical and then can only be grown under glass in the North but the hardy species can he transplanted out side as soon ad established in pots. CAUTION: Spores are not available at all times of the year and order are back- ordered, to be sent when fresh spores come in. ADIANTUM. (ad-ee-AN-tum) Polypodiaceae.

If type of germ- ination is followed, they are easily grown, besides their hybridizing is of special int- erest and rewarding. We would like to hear those growing species to any exteat. (A) Sow seeds of these species, in March or April, out doors, or earlier indoors; germ- inate in 3-5 weeks; transplant to nursery 93 row. Can also be treated as in (B). (B) Start in frame or greenhouse in early spring or out doors in the South; germinate in 3-6 weeks; carry seedlings over in frame or cool house the first winter, transplanting them out in the spring. (C) Plant out door April-June in a well- made seed bed; germinates in 2-5 months with no top growth showing the first season; transplant the second year. (D)_ Plant out doors in late fall, Nov-Dec, in well-prepared seed bed; germination and top-growth the 2nd spring; transplant the 3rd or 4th year, according to growth. (E) Usually hybrids and variable as to treatment; any special notes are mentioned in their description. —-amabile. LILY-2. 25¢ Turk’s Cap Red with dark spots; 3 ft; A. — —luteum.

They do best in a rich loamy soil and not exposed to hot, dry winds; they stand some shade. Seeds can be started indoors very early in a cool place and the plants shifted to flats and placed in a cold frame transplanting them to their out door beds in early May or they can be started in July, even as late as August and the plants established well before fall or wintered over in a frame. We sell a great amount of 114 Pansy seed annually and will be pleased to quote special pound prices to commercial growers; for best prices orders should be placed before April for summer delivery; on these early orders it will not be necessary to remit at the time.

PETUNIAS There is hardly any other flower that wilk give as much bloom, with as little care, as will the Petunia; in hot summers their bloom is continuous. The chief pit-fall the amat- eur runs up against in growing Petunias is in the seed sowing; almost invariably they bury the tiny seeds too deeply. First the soil should be a good loamy texture with leaf mould mixture for the top; fern-pots make ideal seed pans as they can be watered by setting them in a little water; do not soak. In sowing the seed be careful not to sow too thickly; always press the seed into the soil then a fine sprinkling of sand or milled sphagnum moss, not too much; cover pot with a pane of glass and be sure to wipe it off each morning to prevent the moisture on the under side from dripping on the seeds; about a 60 degree Far. temperature at night will do; LW; C-18.

Ericaceae. They can be sown inside in January or March, in a mixture of sand, peat and a little loam; cover seed lightly with our milled sphagnum and remove glass as soon as germination starts. CULTURE: The growth of seedlings is best if the seed is sown in heat, about 65 degrees Fah. in January or February, thin- ly on fine peat, covered with glass and shaded; germination takes about 1-3 weeks, and as soon as seedlings appear, air is ad- mitted gradually. When the cotyledons are well developed they are uncovered completely. Then 132 prick off into a mixture of peat, with a little loam and course sand added. By July or August they should be about 1-3 inches high and ready for planting out in frames, protecting them from frosts. The secret of the whole process being to main- tain rapid growth continuity for the first year or two. The soil must be kept slight- ly on the acid side and rain water is to be preferred to regular tape water. The following Rhododendrons are from a well Known English collection. The species offered breed true to type with a few variations, sometimes, in the plants produced. As to hardiness, those marked ‘A’ will undoubtly grow in our zone IV. ‘B’ are also hardy but these will require some shade to obtain best results. ‘C’, probably should be planted in zone V or VI, but require shelter if they are liaile to have cold spells. —Arthur Osborne.

The hybrids, naturally, do not breed ex- actly true to the parent plant, as some “aviation can be expected towards either of the parents of the original cross. Nat- urally some should prove exciting and others may not be so interesting. It is the practice of many Rhododendron grow- ers to rogue the more vigorous plants, as it has been found that the better colors result from the weaker seedlings as is also the case in other flowers such as the Stocks and Petunias.

In the North they should be planted very early in the spring but in the South, plant late in the fall; sow direct to the soil, spacing them about 3” apart; do not allow to go to seed as they will stop flowering.
