Not so much for quantity as for quality in the production of specimen plants for the trade. For house culture, for their prolific flowering and beauty of form and color of bloom it can be truly said that this class possesses a standing in the trade that is unique. To meet the growing demand and intensify the public interest in succulents and cacti it is good business on the part of the florist and commercial plantsmen to carry in stock an ample supply of my robust specimen plants, which practically sell themselves when properly advertised and displayed. A trial order will authenticate this statement. A careful perusal of our varied assortment and attractive prices at which they are being offered, I feel convinced will prove attractive and induce the trade throughout the country to add my line to their assort¬ ments. The stock will surely sell, and at the same time individualize the firms that handle it. Commercially I was among the first to see the pos¬ sibilities of developing a local and export trade in this class of plants, particularly to the eastern trade for indoor dish garden work; as a result this establishment enjoys the largest and most varied stock of cacti and succulents to be found on this Coast. GASTERIA In addition this establishment has introduced and disseminated a number of other plants that have proven very popular — among them being the Cleveland Cherry, its Yellow Sport, Orange Queen, also the variety Holly Berry, the Hagenburger’s Variegated Ivy, Miniature Variegated Ivy, Japanese Variegated Ivy, Vitus Rhoimboideum, or Japanese Grape Ivy, also I believe, the first Bronze Variety of Snap-Dragon, Rosy Morn. I was among the first to grow and force in a commercial way Pussy Willows and For- sythia Intermedia; also, the forcing of Delphinium Belladonna as a cut flower. In order to maintain public interest and stimulate trade we must create meritorious novelties and improve existing strains for florists’ use and garden beautification. The public tires of the same things; just as in other lines the flower and plant buyer craves new things. Obviously we must have novelties and improve old varieties for cut flowers to keep the public inter¬ ested, just as we must have new fashions in other commodities to keep the wheels going. For the public tires of the same thing constantly. The following varieties of succulents have won¬ derful possibilities as flowering pot plants — (a few also make fine cut flowers). Many of these varieties bloom at the different holiday seasons. The varieties are: Crassula or Rochea Falcata, Kalanchoe Flama True, Kalanchoe Globulifera Vr. Coccinea, Kalanchoe Somoliensis or Bryophyllum Crenatum, Echeveria in Variety, Aloe Spinosissma, Crassula Rubicunda, Crassula Rubicunda Brilliancy, Crassula Coccinea, Sedum, Guatamalensis. Also Crassula Monticola, Christmas Cactus, Zygocactus in Variety and Phyllo Cactus.

HAGENBURGER'S VARIEGATED IVY (Hedera Maderensis Variegata) GROWER OF SUCCULENTS AND CACTUS 11 Cacti likes more heat and plenty of water in the growing season after it is estab¬ lished. Be careful with water when not well rooted. Phyllocactus should have a resting period of some weeks before flower¬ ing so that their buds will set well. Kalanchoe can be grown into fine specimen plants best by benching them as they lift very easily. Some of the Aloes and Eche- verias will keep for weeks or months if heads are cut off and placed in a vase without water, or used the same as a cut flower. Kalanchoe Flammea (True Variety) being very attractive, makes fine cut flowers with stems eighteen inches long, with large bouvardia-like heads, keep¬ ing for weeks. Aloe Picta Variegata in speciman size is one of the finest decorative plants that can be grown.^ CULTURE HINTS The largest percentage of succulent plants love a sunny situation. The more sun the better the color and more robust the plant will grow. In greenhouses, grow them on shelves near the glass to finish them off. To grow them for size and specimens, I would grow them in a bench or frame under glass in the summer, using a rich sandy loam with plenty of leaf mould, sharp sand, well rotted cow manure and a sprinkling of dried blood. For potting use heavier soil, but not so rich. All soil used should be sterilized. The results of sterilized soil is amazing. Insects love them, especially mealy bugs, nematodes, also some scale and aphis. We find Evergreen Spray the best for mealy bug and aphis as it does not discolor the plant. Volck and fish oil soap, or Destruxol Emulsion to control mealy bug and scale. For nematode, the best thing, outside of sterilizing the soil, is a very fine tobacco dust. This is effective mixed with soil or sprinkled over the surface if the soil is not sterilized. Semesen powder is also fine. It also helps to control fungus. Most all cacti and succulents that can be will grow much faster if grafted on the rich stock. Succu¬ lents like a cool temperature, and considerable water after being established to make a quick growth. W hen fully grown give less water and plenty of sunshine, to insure color, texture.
