Text Appearing Before Image:
s plant is a remarkably easy one to cultivate, even in thoseparts of the world where the thermometer falls below zero, if itcan only have the protection of a cool green-house in winter. Itlooks best trained over flat trehises of wire or wood, though it isoften grown as a cylinder, or on balloons. For a basket-plant itis admirable, as it blooms in the winter season when room flow-ers are most highly appreciated, and a single flower is sufficientto scent a whole room. It will hardly do well in the open airfarther north than its natural territory, unless with some protec,tion. At the Laurel Hill Cemetery, near Philadelphia, there isa plant growing on a wall among some evergreen ivy, the leavesof which afford it sufficient protection, and through which itpushes its branchlets, with the sweet flowers, in early spring.The cuttings grow very easily, if taken off in early summer whilethe wood is half ripe, put in boxes of sandy soil, and kept in apartially shaded place. < . ■ ^/\ 1 L, 4-
