Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fern Garden: How to Make, Keep, and Enjoy It; Or Fern Culture Made Easy Try my hand on a small volume adapted for the induction of the unlearned and unskilled in this pursuit, and here it is. Whether it will supersede any of the bad books or take lowest rank amongst them is for me a solemn problem. But I send it forth in hope that after a quarter of a century of hard work in the practical part of the subject, I may be better qualified to make a little book than some of those who, previous to writing, had acquired only a week or so of experience, and a very dim knowledge of about half a dozen species. As almost every fern in cultivation has names enough to fill a small volume, I have in every case adopted the names by which those recommended are best known in nurseries and gardens. The fearful question of nomenclature is thus avoided, and every. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How Ferns Grow Classic Reprint written by Margaret Slosson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How Ferns Grow Innumerable books have been written about ferns in their mature stages of development, and many accounts exist of their earliest stages, which end with the formation of the young fern plant, but very little respecting the intervening stages seems to have been recorded. Although in these stages the fern-plant's development takes place, including the leaf-development, the literature of the subject consists of a few scattered papers only. These papers, moreover, deal mostly with individual species, and chie y with the subject of cell-growth and kindred phenomena. They scarcely touch upon the development of the form and ve nation of the leaf in each species, and in its individual aspect only, without reference to its relation to such development in other fern species. For these reasons, and in view of the important part that the form and venation of the species' leaf play nowadays in the classification of fern species, and of the fact that both often differ widely in the early stages of the leaf from their characters in the later, it is thought that to point out in this book the principal features of the development of form and venation in fern leaves, as seen in the species of the northeastern United States, will be useful, and may serve to throw light upon such development in fern species in general.

Download or read book The Complete Book of Ferns written by Mobee Weinstein and published by Cool Springs Press. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Book of Ferns is filled with botanical information, indoor and outdoor growing and care information, details on propagation, display ideas, and even craft projects. This gorgeous book is authored by Mobee Weinstein, the Foreman of Gardeners at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx and a veteran guest on the Martha Stewart Living TV show and other media outlets. Houseplants in general are in ascendance, but no category is hotter than ferns. From the otherworldly Staghorns—mounted like antler trophies in homes throughout the world—to the classic Boston Ferns and newer varieties like Crispy Wave, ferns are definitely back in fashion. And to no one’s surprise. After all, ferns are among the very oldest plants on the planet, with a long and storied history. There are tens of thousands of known varieties of ferns. In the Victorian Era, ferns created an absolute craze for more than 50 years. They re-emerged as integral home décor accessories in the '50s and '60s, and who didn’t spend time in a "Fern Bar" back in the '80s? And they are back again. This comprehensive reference starts its examination of ferns 400 million years ago, when the first species of this group of spore-reproducing plants appeared on Earth, exploring their evolution and eventual incorporation into human culture, including the powers associated with them and their practical and ornamental uses. Then, after an exploration of fern botany—its parts, how it grows, its variability in size and form, habitats, propagation, etc.—you'll learn how to green your indoor and outdoor environments with ferns. Every aspect of fern care is covered: potting/planting, watering, fertilizing, pest and disease control, and more. With this knowledge absorbed, explore creative planting projects, like terrariums, vertical gardens (living walls), mixed tabletop gardens, and moss baskets. To make your survey of ferns complete, create pressed fern art, fabric wall hangings with chlorophyll-stained designs, cyanotypes, and hand-made fern-decorated paper. In the end, you will understand why this ancient plant class continues to be all the rage.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fern Garden: How to Make, Keep, and Enjoy It; Or Fern Culture Made Easy Beginners in Fern culture are very much perplexed by the abundance of books on the subject, and their general unfitness to afford the aid a beginner requires. Almost everybody has written a book on ferns, it having become the fashion to consider a knowledge of the subject rather a disqualification than otherwise. When the blind attempt to lead the blind the result can be safely predicated, and no doubt the myriads of bad books on ferns that swarm in the cheap book shops have done their full share of mischief. We have fortunately plenty of good books on the subject, but for the most part they are technical and elaborate, and shoot over the heads of beginners.
