Orchids are comparatively new to florists
and the public, but they are becoming more
common and at the same time more per-
feet every year.
The great oaks i'll Waverly, Mass, are
survivors Of al oak forest that must have
existed in that region, according to the ge-
o~logists, as far back as the tenth century.
In potting the bulbs for winter blooming,
do not omit the freesias. They are quite
cheap, and quantities of them may be pot
ted ut small cost. They bloom with but
little care. r
Yuccas are readily transplanted. They do
not always start to grow right away after
ward. but they come in time. They are. in
fact, so tenacious of life that pieces Of root
cut into lengths and buried will form
plants.
