Rose Suckers - These are growths from the stock on which the rose has been budded. They occur not only on rosebushes, but also on climbers, ramblers and even standards. All suckers come from below the budding union and can be easily identified by drawing soil away to ch... more Cactus Pests and Disease - It is very important to watch your plants, and keep them healthy and vigorous, and never too crowded. It is much easier to prevent infestation than to cure it. Window collections are ideal places for insects, and it is therefore natural that pests increas... more Plant Virus Diseases - With virus diseases, the exact identification of the parasite is difficult. Viruses are so small that they cannot be seen through the ordinary microscopes used to detect and study fungous and bacterial parasites. They can be photographed by means of moder... more Grass Seed Mixtures - Cheap mixtures are largely composed of the less permanent grasses, the kinds least costly for the seedsmen or packager to buy. It has to be that way. Good seeds of desirable varieties are comparatively expensive. They cannot be sold to compete with cheape... more Loamy Soil - When a soil is referred to as loamy, it usually means that the soil contains a mixture of humus, sand and clay. A good loamy soil should contain, in addition to the clay particles, an ample supply of humus with sufficient sand to prevent it setting hard u... more Lawns from Stolons - Some grasses spread rapidly by creeping stems (stolons). With these grasses it is entirely practicable to establish excellent lawns by planting small pieces of rootless and leafless stolons or of stolons with roots and leaves or by setting pieces of turf... more Green Manure - In a large garden a good plan is to rest one seventh of the area devoted to vegetables and cut flowers every year, and to sow this seventh with a green manure or cover crop which can be dug or ploughed in at the end of the season. A more intensive program... more Light and House Plants - Light can be supplemented by artificial lights, especially by fluorescent tubes only half a metre or so above the plants. This works well for foliage plants but to make flower buds, the red rays of incandescent globes are needed. Too many of these too clo... more How To Plant Trees - Holes for shrubs and trees should be dug about 30 centimetres wider and about 15 centimetres deeper than the size of the soil ball of the new plant.
