  • Dwarfed Trees Raised From Seedlings and Cuttings
    One of the most fascinating hobbies is the raising of trees from seeds sown directly in a shallow container. If the seedlings are allowed to grow for a few years, they appear like a miniature forest; the same may be done with cuttings.
  • Gardens in Containers in the Modern Day
    American visitors to the Old World are invariably impressed by the exuberant displays of container plants around homes, in gardens and parks, and in front of public buildings and places of business.
  • Pointers to Selecting the Right Soil
    Without soils, no life could exist on earth. The lowly bacterial cell and the massive pachyderm both owe their being to this basic stuff of life.
  • Information To Help Keep Soil At The Best PH Level
    Years ago, Dr. Edgar T. Wherry devised a classification of soils by degrees of acidity; it is still useful but should be qualified by the fact that many plants spill over into two or more classifications while some are relatively sensitive to pH.
  • A Brief History Of Gardens In Containers
    Gardening in pots and other containers is apparently as old as civilization, for the practice can be traced to the very early use of medicinal and edible plants. In time, pot gardening developed to a high degree, and there are numerous records which reveal its importance in China, India, Egypt, Assyria, Greece, and Rome.
  • Secrets Of Artificially Dwarfed Bonzai Trees
    The practice of artificial dwarfing might be more aptly described as "revolutionizing" normal growth. Learn the secrets of the masters to create these miniature marvels.
  • The Mystery Behind Growing Perfect Orchids
