Camellias.
Editor Floral Department:

Editor Floral Department.:
Noting your article on Camellia ia
ponica. in issue of April 18th, we will
state that this plant fOurishes in all
parts of Florida 1t is of such slow
growth that most people do not under
stand that it requires months to get
established in the open ground, and
hence many failures occur in trans
planting By setting pOt-grown plants
there is hardly chance for failure as
the roots are all intact. They should
be set about two inches deeper than
when in the pots, and the soil well
firmed down, then mulched and kept
moist; watering must be looked after
for about nine months or a year, see
ing that the soil is fairly wet every
few days. A shade of lath placed over
the plant for this length of time will
be of great benefit We make lath
shades of common house lathS four
feet square, and fasten them to stakes,
so that the lath will be about ten
inches above the top of the Camellia.
After the year is up, there will be
no more attention necessary. Any
good land will grow Camellias.

The Hydrangea Hortensis.

The Hydrangea is a beautiful
Towering shrub that is seldom seen
in this state There is no reason why
it should not be more common We
quote an article from the Mayfower
Being written for Northern readers it
must be adapted to different condi-
tions. to fit our climate One thing
we call special attention to is the fact
that in Florida it does best in half
shade, under a lath shelter or on the
north side of building where the sun
will not strike it except early in the
morning.
This beautiful plant has been neg
lected entirely too much by the
gardener. The reason of
this is easily understood when it is
borne in mind that this species is not
entirely hardy, and must be protected
to some extent during the winter. 1t
adapts itself to three different ways
of cultivation, all Of which shall be
treated fully in this article.
As Il Garden Plant-tO grow them
The Florida agriculturist., 1906-05-02
Salvias.

A correspondent, of Parks Floral
Magazine. recommends Salvias very
highly, but none too much so. We do
not see why it is not more commonly
grown in Florida gardens.
1 often wonder why such valuable
plants as the Salvias are not more
largely grown. They have so many
desirable qualities and so few defects;
if any.
As readily grown from seed as
Balsam or pink, easy to transplant,
rapid growing. coming into bloom early
it gives an early start, and once in
bloom they are a blaze of dazzling
color until severe .frOsts. In the bOr-
der and beds they produce an effect
and display which L have found no
other plant to equal. For cut flowers,
very few plants can equal them.
For the window garden 1 find them
very desirable, the rich glowing scarlet
of S. splendens being especially at
tractive. From one packet of S. splen
dens purchased this spring, L raised
eighteen fine plants. The seeds were
planted in a cold frame early in April,
transplanted in May, and began bloom
ing late in June, and from then until
October they were dazzling blaze of
scarlet. Late in September, after a
few light frOsts, several plants were
trimmed back severely, taken up and
potted i'm five and six-inch pots To
day, December 10th, each plant has
twelve to twenty long spikes of the
richest. brightest scarlet imaginable.
From packet of Saliva patens re-
ceived at the same time 1 raised ten
fine plants, which were second only to
splendens, and almost as indispensable
for bouquets, the rich deep blue and
silvery white flowers in long graceful
dropping spikes were a treasure indeed
This variety is quite hardy, and
bloomed freely until severe frost came
and ended it's useful career.
