Garden Notes
Scientific methods for prolonging
the life and benuty of cut flowers
have long been Known and practiced
by the Japanese but only recently
have flower lovers In America become
interested in this subject.
An article in a recent bulletin of
the National Council of State Garden
Clubs gives the following methods for
preserving various flowers.
"All cut flowers should be placed
In a deep pail tilled with cool water,
I It a coul ruanu true from drufts. lor
about two hours. When you are
ready to arrange thoiu, strip the stems
of foliage for at least four Iches from
the base.
Apple Blossoms?Should be cut in
bud, crush or pound stems, plunge into
deep water, containing five drops of
hydrochloric acid to one gallon of
water.
Asters? Soak stems in water containing
one teaspoon of sugar per
quart. This will 'make the flower
heads stand upright.

over gas flame. Soak in water containing
one tablespoon of alcohol per
gaJlon.
"Chrysantheumums?Crush or burn
stems. Soak in water containing
eight drops of oil of peppermint to two
quarts of water.
"Daffodils?-Never place in deep water.
They enjoy arrangement best in
low containers.
"Dahlias?Burn ends, place in water
containing one-half cup of vinegar per
gallon.
"Daisies?Place in water which contains
eight drops of oil of peppermint
per quart.
"Gardenias?After being cut from the
mother plant, they absorb water only
thru the petals and leaves. For best
results, simply spray with water.
"Gladiolus?Place in water containing
a tablespoon alcohol per quart.
"Hyacinths-?Squeeze slipper substance
out of stem, since it hardens
and prevents water entering it.
Plunge immediately Into cold water.

"Poppies?Same as polnsettias.
"Roses?Make a clean cut. Burn tip
[of stem. Plunge into cold water to
Which alum lias been added. One
tablespoon powdered alum to a quart
of water.
"Sweet Peas?Place in water containing

"Tulips?Place in cold water up to
flower heads.
"Wisteria?Cut in evening. Slit
stems. Place in water to which has
been added one-quarter cup of alcohol

all woody shrubs and plants such as
rhododendrons, and the like.
For restoring fresh flowers which
have wilted, place in cold water, to
which has been added one-JiaJf cup of

has been removed from tlie stems
imrrersed in water, it is not"1
necessary to disturb the arrangement
by changing the water. Simply add

evaporated and spray flowers and
foliage with a flue spray daily.?Elizabeth
