'Ierusnlcm's garden of olives has eight
trees known to DO 200 years old.
Ammonia has been proved to be an OK
cellont stimulant for growing flowers. A
few drops twice week in can of rain
water will make fuchsins, geraniums and
other flowers bloom freely
The ndaptability of plants to new loca-
lions is sometimes very remarkable
Plants whose natural habitat is in dry
soil can often accustom themselves to IA
marsh, while marsh plants on tho other
hand, can sometimes DO trained TO grow
in dry sand
Two young trees, raised from It's acorns,
have recently boon planted near the famous
