4 florist advises that when palms have
been recently repotted they should not be
kept at once in very warm room They
thrive better in cooler place for a few
weeks, and if gradually acclimated to in
creased heat, while they do not need ac-
cording to the same authority, so much
water when freshly repotted. The care of
what are called drawing room plants in
our gas-lighted and superheated houses is
at the best serious one, and is not always
repaid by thrifty growths. Leaking gas
fixtures are one Of the most deadly in
fiuences that can be brought to bear upon
plants or flowers. When the gas is burn
ing some of the poison is consumed, but its
full force is had when the gas goes into the
atmosphere without flame.
