Watering plants properly is most
necessary thing to understand and the
most difficult to teach, being acquired
entirely by practice. The plant must
be studied, its nature and habits UNDER
stood, and treated accordingly. The
professional gardener is asked nearly
every day by amateurs . How
often should / water my plants ?"
and il it was in the power Of one man
to convey this information to his fell
low a perfect gardener could be
made by diction. The answer gen.
orally given, and very properly, too,
is: "Water your plants when they
need it, giving plenty at the time, and
don't water again until they show signs
Of being thirsty. Plants usually show
signs Of wanting water by the soil on
the top Of the pot being dry, bat in
plant-houses where the foliage is wet
every bright day with water from a
syringe, the soil on the top may be wet
and below very dry. If you are ever
in such . plant-house in the morning
you may see the gardener going around
and tapping the sides Of the pots
with his knuckles. He can tell,
unless he is unable to distinguish diff
ference in tone land there are such
people,, from the sound just the condi-
ton Of the soil in the pot, and gives
water accordingly. This can only be
learned by long experience. Some gem
eral information can, however, be given
which may be o. use to many who grow
plants in rooms. When the soil in the
pot has the appearance Of being dry,
take water-can, pitcher, or any other
vessel that may be At hand, and pour on
plenty Of water. IL there is plenty
Of drainage there is no danger Of
giving too much at any ono time. II
there should be saucers under the pots,
remove them and empty out al the
water that may b collected. No plant,
pplsss Il Is an aquatic, win live very
long with stagnant water about its roots.
DO not water again until you see that
