Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plant World, Vol. 5 The Garden, as now improved, includes approximately forty-five acres, devoted to a formal flower garden, various synopses of botanical or economical significance, a fruticetum, an arboretum, and a moderate sized range of houses, some of old model and others of recent construc tion in accordance with the present practice in plant-house building. The planting in these divisions the Garden is in part formal, in part natural, and, while the transitions are not always satisfactory, the ex treme representations of the two methods are fairly successful. In the plant-houses, in addition to ranges furnished with, staging, which is best suited to the growth and display of certain kinds of plants, other ranges are devoted to representative collections of a homogeneous character, planted out in as natural a way as may be. There are, for instance, a fern house, a tree-fern tower, an acacia house, a yucca tower, and a cactus house, in which the impression produceable by each of these classes of plants is accentuated by the natural manner in which they are grown.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plant World, Vol. 3 The fall of 1892 was very dry, and a piece of woodland near Oakwood, Staten Island, N. Y., was burned over. Some of the swamps included in the area continued to burn for about two months in spite of several rains. To walk in one of the burnt swamps after the fire was out, was like tramping in the snow; the ashes were ankle deep and soft and fine. Many red maples two feet in diameter had fallen. There were also a few trees of other kinds. Their roots had been burned and a strong north wind, that came later, had blown them down.

Book excerpt: “A Way to Garden prods us toward that ineffable place where we feel we belong; it’s a guide to living both in and out of the garden.” —The New York Times Book Review For Margaret Roach, gardening is more than a hobby, it’s a calling. Her unique approach, which she calls “horticultural how-to and woo-woo,” is a blend of vital information you need to memorize and intuitive steps you must simply feel and surrender to. In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses at the Plant World Dear Children, - I hope these little talks about a few of the many wonderful and beautiful things in the plant-world will help you to see and understand some things about you that you have not yet noticed. When I was a little girl, I lived in the country and spent a great deal of time in the woods and fields. I had so many happy days among the wild-flowers! I did not always know their names, but I knew the little plant-folks themselves, and knew the very spot where I was to look for this or that particular kind.

Download or read book The Plant World Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by Plant World Association and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plant World, Vol. 2 Countless blossoms of the Odorous wild Roses fill the gulches and ravines; plants that are only a few inches high may be found sport ing several flowers, while the hedge-forming bushes are covered with buds and blossoms, in all the possible shades of red, and its variegation with white. Here also are found Old friends in the blue Spiderwort, appearing in its true form like a veritable immense spider; the yellow four-o'clock; and Larkspurs, lo'ng sprays Of the blue and white, like those Of the Old-fashioned gardens, but much more beauti ful. High on the banks are white clouds Of scented petals from the wild Plum and Cherry, the Thimbleberry and the Raspberry. Climb ing among these trees and shrubs are seen interlacing the Clematis and wild Hops in blossoming garlands Of white and green, forming trellises, arbors and bowers innumerable, hanging strands and fes toons from one side Of the path to the other, swaying amid the breeze and keeping time to the cadence Of the mountain streams. The Cacti have been in bloom for some time, and we must not pass them by; in fact it would be impossible, as they are everywhere and are apt to make themselves felt severely if not noticed. It is indeed fortunate if on our strolls we return without one or more of their sharp spines having penetrated our shoes and entered the flesh, there to prove themselves long sought for, hard to find and decidedly pain ful. The Cacti are at their best upon the prairie, especially after a dry, hot spring; it seems incredible how little moisture they require. A plant has been known to have been kept in a tin box all fall and winter with hardly a drop of water; in fact it had been forgotten, yet it flourished and bloomed during the summer months. The Prickly Pear cactus is found on the prairie, on the hillsides, in the gulches, high upon the cliffs, hanging on by its long tough roots; its large fleshy joints and brilliant blossoms hanging down along the sides Of the precipice. The joints are thickly studded with sharp needle-like spines Of white; these are Of a poisonous nature and are capable Of causing considerable pain and irritation, if after having entered the flesh, they are accidentally broken Off and allowed to remain there. Among these guarding swords nestle the buds and blossoms and later the fruit, the prickly pear proper, dark red in color and somewhat re sembling a plum in shape. To the southward, where it grows con siderably larger, it is found to be quite a tempting edible. Both the bud and fruit are generously endowed with close-set clusters Of fine hair-like spines; these are even more painful than the larger ones, be ing mostly so very small as to remain unnoticed, but certain to be felt and hard to extract. The blossoms are large and Of three shades of color; there is a dull yellow, and a rich golden-hued, but the most beautiful of all is the golden-petaled with a brilliant crimson centre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Book of Plants Plants grow almost everywhere in the world around us in all sizes and shapes. Some are so small that they can be seen only with a microscope. Others, like the redwood trees of Cali lornia, tower high in the sky. Plants grow not only in well watered soil, but in oceans, rivers, lakes and swamps, in deserts, on rocks, far above the ground on branches of trees, on old pieces of wood, even on such unlikely things as crusts of bread, old shoes, or on top of arctic snow. Some strange plants eat insects, and others steal food from their neighbors. Plants and animals are the living, growing things of the earth. Most animals move around, and many of them have sound apparatuses, for making noises. Most plants spend their whole lives silently in one place. Because they live so quietly, we sometimes forget that during their growing seasons they work hard all day long. For plants are just as alive as animals, and they have the same problems: finding and keeping a place to live, getting food, fighting animal enemies and plant rivals.
