Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Horticultural Society of London, 1848, Vol. 3 Before the reign of Elizabeth it would not seem that the laying out of grounds, or even horticulture itself, in the strict sense of the word, had been made the subject of any treatise. That records of the Opinions and habits of our ancestors on these matters exist in old mss., although not reduced therein to any regular system, there is little reason to doubt; and, as regards horticulture, it would assuredly repay any person who may have the leisure if he should ascertain successfully what were the indigenous plants, and especially vegetables, of this country, tracing carefully the introduction of others into general use. Such information must exist in the British Museum and in other libraries in which the older mss. Are preserved. It would doubtless be a laborious work. Hundreds of pages must be searched with comparatively few though valuable results; yet the whole result would be as instructive as gratifying.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Horticultural Society of London, 1846, Vol. 1 This, I think, in most situations might be easily contrived. My own house lies on high ground, and the water is brought from a considerable distance, but yet I found very little of difficulty or of expense in its construction for it must be borne in mind thata small quantity of water is sufficient, and that this, after passing through the stove, might be conveniently used for garden purposes. It must be remembered also that this plan may be added to any existing stove, and that the sole expense will be for the pipe to conduct the stream, and for the labour of the carriage and arrangement of the rock-work.

This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society, 1896-7, Vol. 20 I adopt the plan of placing pieces of tough fibrous loam or peat when planting and surfacing around the stem of the plants so as to encircle each plant this prevents any superfluous moisture settling at the base or collar of the plants through watering and syringing during the season, which so often pro duces canker, thereby causing the death of the plant and loss of the crop. From 2 feet 6 inches to 3 feet apart is a good distance for house work, and for pits and frames one plant placed in the centre of each light will be sufficient, as this distance allows the plants to extend without the growth being crowded - a most im portant point to be considered. Regulating the growth - Train the plants to a neat stake until the trellis is reached; rub Off all growths as they show from the stem below the trellis train the growths right and left and allow the leading stem to grow up without stopping to within a foot of the top. If the side shoots are likely to be crowded, pinch out some at first sight, as the Melon will not endure thinning so severely as the Cucumber; therefore the growths should be stopped and thinned early enough for those remaining to just cover the trellis with well-developed foliage and no more.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Horticultural Society of London, 1853, Vol. 8 It is well known to every observer of what passes around him in nature, that plants exhibit day by day certain periodic phenomena analogous to those of sleep in animals. Either the leaves alter their position so as to exhibit a totally different appearance, or the flowers close more or less partially; either phenomenon taking place within certain fixed limits of time and circumstance. It is to the former of these cases that our author has directed his attention, as, in his opinion, more strictly allied to the periodic rest which is so essential to the sustenance of animal life in health and vigour.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society, 1908, Vol. 33: Parts I and II By tendency to vary, he evidently means Response to the direct' action Of the new conditions Of life. TO judge from the past, had Darwin lived until today, he would have become assured that Definite Results are not only plentiful but universal; and that Indefinite Results - among which the majority are Injurious variations - do not occur at all under any new conditions Of life in nature so that New sub-varieties, and we may add varieties, species, and genera, are, in fact, always produced without the aid Of natural selection. The reader will perceive that, unlike Darwinism, Darwin himself conclusively shows that this alternative interpretation of the Origin Of Species is no theory at all, but represents the true Natural Law Of Evolution.

This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Horticultural Society of London, 1847, Vol. 2 It appears that if two stigma-bearing lobes of a triple or even tripartible style are cut Off, the whole germen may be fertilized by the one left. In such cases, therefore, the pollen tubes from one lobe must be able to penetrate all the cells of the germen. In cases such as I have seen, where both natural and hybrid seeds have been produced in one capsule, I cannot state whether the two sorts of pollen acted through the same or dif ferent lobes. I have in no instance succeeded in Obtaining any multiplicate cross by blending the pollen of two or more kinds intimately before their application. Mr. Knight thought he had given at the same time the curl of one cabbage and the red colour of another to a third variety. My invariable failure in such attempts induces me to think his recollection was inaccurate, 1f he meant that he had done so at one fructification. He might easily have Obtained the twofold features by two successive crosses, but I believe not in one generation by simultaneous application of different pollens: for I do not think that two grains even of the same pollen can get effectual access to the foramen of one and the same ovule. I now understand, nearly at least to my own satisfaction, in what manner the pollen of Rhododendron may in the fertilization of the ovules supersede the pollen of Azalea previously applied because I do not believe that they are always fertilized so soon as has been usually supposed. The stimulus may have been given to the germ or outer coat of the seed-vessel, and yet the fertilization may not have reached the ovule, and the operation which produces a living embryo may remain suspended till a change of weather and a moist atmosphere afford a supply of carbon, or whatever is needful thereto; and therefore that pollen which has perfect affinitytto the plant may develop itself effectually at a later period on a change in the state of the atmos phere; but, when the pollen has once reached and stimulated the foramen, further access will be assuredly denied. I have repeatedly observed in dry seasons the pollen of Rhododendron very parched and seemingly deficient, the stigmas dry, and the germens remain ing for weeks nearly stationary after flowering, as if no seed would be produced; but, upon a change of weather inducing moisture, universal fertility of the pods soon became apparent. I suspect that in such cases the fertilization has remained incom plete from want of the food necessary to the elongation of the tubes. If such views have any foundation in truth, it is possible that, in addition to mere water, a supply of the chemical ingre dients which are the food Of plants to the style may facilitate difficult impregnations. It is certainly desirable, where dry pollen is to be tried, to moisten the stigma to which it is about to be applied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Horticultural Society of London, 1851, Vol. 6 Though, however, the influence of the sex of the parent is not in general exhibited, as in animals, by any outward signs, yet there is often a great difference in the inward constitution of the plants produced by cross impregnation. It is, for instance, by no means a matter of indifference whether Nicotiana rustica be impregnated with the pollen of N, paniculata, or the contrary. In the former case the mule is more fruitful than in the latter, and other similar instances might be adduced.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society, 1888, Vol. 10 In the 1883 Congress it had been thought desirable to secure the representation of all the varieties of apples in cultivation, whether valuable or otherwise, so as to arrive by comparison at an estimate of their worth. But this having been once done, and the results duly recorded, it was not now considered necessary to go over the same ground again; it was only proposed therefore to invite the exhibition of such varieties as find favour, or may be considered thoroughly worthy of cultivation. And one Object of the Conference being to illustrate by facts and examples the present state and future prospects of commercial fruit culture in this country, it was desired that contributors Should endeavour, as far as possible, to furnish samples of fruits that are in favour in the markets of their several localities. All fruit growers, whether private gardeners or growers for market, were invited to exhibit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
