A BAKERS DOZEN
Most Rewartiinr Plants

There are not many who are
sufficiently familiar with the
hundreds Of varieties that are
being offered today. Most Of
US appreciate having such a
Evening star., 1957-12-15

list to guide our future pur-
chases.
African violets are one Of
the most rewarding of house
plants. They will grow and
flower profusely with only med
crate care. They do, however,
have to have light to flower,
but that Is no problem. even in
an apartment house. A table
lamp will usually provide the
necessary light, especially II
the light bulb Is within a foot
Of the plants.
Avoid letting the bottom OF
the pot stand In water since
that will rot the roots. An 90.
casional Swinging Of the plans
with warm water helps to re-
move the dust and to a limited
extent control insect pests.
In repotting 1t Is well TO use
q coarse potting mixture. An
article In African Violet Jour-
nal some time back condemned
the usual package mixture, say
ing 1t was so fine that 1t COM
pacted and did not permit the
roots to obtain air. This seems
logical since in their native
habitat the violets live In the
leaf mold of the rain forests.
Remove Dead Foliage
Sanitation Is most important
for the health and freedom OF
bloom. Remove the dead and
injured foliage. spent blooms
and flower stalks. At the first
sign Of insect pests treat the
plants with Malathion or a SIM
liar miticide. Here again It is
important TO spray three times
ct five-day intervals to clean
up an infestation Of mites.
The old myth about keeping
the plants crowded into a small
pot Is absolutely without fact.
Some OF the most gorgeous
plants observed by this writer
were IN 6 and 7 inch pots. The
leaves had a spread of nearly
] foot. and the number Of
blossom stalks was unbelieva- :
BILE. However. the repotting 70
larger pots should be made
gradually. as needed. Too large
a pot stimulates vegetative
growth at the expense Of fiow-
ers.
Feeding at regular intervals
Is advisable. using one Of the
commercially available mix
lures. Follow the manufacture
ers directions. II the mixture
seems to 60 into foliage. try
another. A well-balanced plant.
both as to foliage and bloom
Is desirable.

THIS WEEK
IN THE GARDEN

gcrapbook File Date. Dec. Is
Freezing weather. snow and
rain are not conducive to work
out-of- doors. although there
are still many things that can
be done in the garden. One Of
the important jobs is to look
for places where there Is stand
ing water. Fill or drain them.
Standing water kills grass as
well as perennials and bulbs.
Another chore Is to see that
all climbers are securely faS-
tened to their supports.
Then. too, We can still plant
rose bushes. deciduous trees
and shrubs. II is not too late
TO plant bulbs. The dafiodils
will flower later in the spring
than earlier planted bulbs. but
most Of the others viii come
into bloom about on schedule
Sow seed OF the hardy an
nuals where you want them to
bloom next spring.
Broad-Leaf Evergreens
Nurserymen using the new
plastic sprays consider the
planting Of conifers and broad
leaved evergreens safe at this
time Of the year. II Is q new
practice and one that We are
all definitely interested in.
However. the use Of such a pro-
tective coating does not reduce
the need for a good heavy
mulch which will keep the
eround from freezing and per-
mit root functioning late into
the winter. Also. it may be
necessary to water these plants
ahould the ground dry out.
Dutch Iris
Dutch iris bulbs may be
planted any time the ground
Is dry enough to be prepared.
Put them in the vegetable gar
den or some out of-the-way
place because We grow them
for cutting and not for garden
effect. The bulbs are inexpen-
stve and the flowers are most
useful indoors. There are a
considerably number Of named
varieties. Most gardeners like
the yellow. white and blue
ones.
Holiday Greenery
It is not too early to survey
the garden for twigs and
branches that may be cut and
made into attractive holiday
decorations. Evergreens may be
pruned at any time and this
is the time when they can oe
Evening star., 1957-12-15

used to good advantage. Also.
an annual pruning Is needed
to keep the Trees and shrubs
within bounds and growing
compactly. so do not hesitate
to cut as heavily as necessary
for that supply Of decorating
material.
Confer Cuttings
December and January are
the months to take cuttings Of
conifers for roofing indoors. A
flower pot filled with sand. or
with a half and half mixture
