Excerpt from Plant Culture: A Working Hand-Book of Every Day Practice for All Who Grow Flowering and Ornamental Plants in the Garden and GreenhouseIn nearly all of the recent works of this nature, appearing in America, the subjects dealt with have been confined, more or less, to those plants that can be and are cultivated by commercial ¿orists for profit, or by those who own conserva tories. And while the present book includes all this class of information it has a far wider scope, treating, as it does, on the care and management of a diversity of plants not touched upon by other writers, all equally necessary in the adornment Of our gardens and homw and, for this purpose, as beautiful and interesting as those that generally receive the greatest at tention from authors of most horticultural works. Divested of super¿uous verbiage, and shorn of perplexing technicalities which tend to confuse, the cultural directions here given can be easily and successfully followed, the results contributing to the perfect enjoyment of the purest of human pleasures, by some, and affording to others a lucrative occupation.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
