Tropical Plants.

Our tenderest plants resist cold to a
wonderful degree when the soil is nearly
frozen. Even when the atmosphere is
cold enough to cut them to the ground
the roots remain alive, protected by the
warm earth.
The severe cold last spring made SEEM
ing havoc with pineapples and bananas
and our tender flowers as well, yet to-day
they look as if there had been no abnOr-
NAL weather.
l was much interested recently in look
ing over friends choice collection of
rare plants and shrubs, the most ofwhich
were cut to the ground by the freeze of
March II.
The Allamandas and Thumbergia fra
grams are blooming, and the Tabern@m-
ontana coronaria and Thumbergia gran
difora are growing luxuriantly, the lat
ter which was supposed to be dead, hav-
ing covered it's trellis again. Others not
remembered at the present, are showing
the same recuperative power.
The Barbados gooseberry Cor lemon
vine) which is really a very tender plant,
was not destroyed by the great freeze OF
1886. [ had an immense specimen at
that time on the west corner of build
ing which was killed to the ground, but
the root survived and sent up healthy
shoots in the early spring of that year,
and has been growing ever since.
My friend, whose plants are referred to
in this article, usually puts some slight
protection around her plants which are
in. the open soil, and they bloom beauti-
