This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Flower Garden, or Monthly Calendar of Practical Directions for the Culture of Flowers Garden ensures a pretty general knowledge of its management. I cannot create a florist by a stroke of my pen, any more than I can make a neat gardener in a summary way, out of a common laborer, who never had a rake in his hand. That the present hints should be presented in Calen dar form, appears advisable, to avoid confusion, and to bring the respective flowers, and their culture, under immediate consideration, at the precise time they ought to meet attentio'n; and as in the Kitchen Garden I made that form to commence with the month of November, SO likewise may the Floral year, with great propriety, be considered to begin with the same month, the culture of its earliest products being then to be attended to, and preparation made for their appear ance in the following spring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Flower Garden Companion: Adapted to the Northern States The first and second editions of the Flow Garden Compa nion having received a liberal patronage, will be a sufficient apology for the appearance of the present edition, in an enlarged form, although not materially different in its arrangement. The present Object, as heretofore, of the Flower Garden Companion, is to aid those persons who are desirous of becoming acquainted with the culture of flowers. In its compilation, the aim has been to give, within the compass of a convenient manual for reference, as much useful matter as possible relative to the subject. To this end, each topic has been separately treated, and in as concise a manner as could be done with propriety; and, indeed, in some cases, with a degree of brevity that on the first reading, to the young practitioner may produce a feeling of disappointment, at the apparent deficiency of information; but on a careful reading Of the different articles, it will be found that everything useful (in so small a treatise) has been Spoken of, and that, in many instances, one article acts as a key to another. In the outset, directions are given for laying out flower gardens. In treating on this subject, I have confined myself to the general outline, without entering into minute details, which depend very much upon location and circumstances, as well as upon the taste and means of the proprietor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of a Flower Garden A beautiful arrangement of the planting would be to run a triple row of tulips, hyacinths or narcissi along the edges of all the beds and sow English daisy seed, pansies, ageratums or other low-growing plants among them to cover the ground when they are through blooming. On the less sunny borders the lobelias would be beautiful, as would the dwarf morn ing glories which remain open all day. The tufted pansies are permanent and beautiful border plants, especially the yellow ones, and one can compose very artistic color schemes by using flowers that harmonize with the edging plants in the different beds.

Download or read book The Seasons in a Flower Garden a Handbook of Information and Instruction for the Amateur Classic Reprint written by Louise Shelton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Seasons in a Flower Garden a Handbook of Information and Instruction for the Amateur These pages are for the most part a condensed record of flower-time - just a little garden wisdom, which may guide others who, unaided by an experienced man, do give love labor to the green things growing. They are especially prepared for those who have small gardens where space must be economized in order to welcome the variety of posies that are the heart's desire. After some short directions on Plans, Planting, and Soil, the book is arranged in the order of months, beginning with September, for reasons explained later, and giving under each month a few introductory suggestions and a list of its flowering plants, together with practical hints for garden work during that month. After November winter intervenes, and the record begins again with March. After a little study it should not be too difficult, I hope, for any one to select suitable plants and arrange them in such a way as to make even a small garden show well during the whole season of flowers. If the eye is trained in the harmony of colors, no fairer castle in the air can be imagined than a garden in its proper color blending, abloom in every section all through the summer. The setting of plants with regard to height as well as to color adds to the intricacies of this fascinating scheming, which will bring a summer morning into the dreariest of winter days - the time for sketching plans for outdoor planting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beautiful Flower Garden: Its Treatment With Special Regard for the Picturesque; Written and Embellished With Numerous Illustrations by F. Schuyler Mathews; With Notes on Practical Floriculture We should seek to display the whiteness and purity of the lily in the garden, and not trouble ourselves so much about the shape of the brown earth patch from which it grows. The dainty pink of the rose is not enhanced by the star shape of the garden bed beneath it, nor is the delicate blue of the forget-me-not any prettier when the little plants are jammed together in compact masses. Such methods for laying out a garden do not add to its beauty, in my opinion, nor, for that matter, do they detract from the beauty of the flowers; but what is completely lost sight of, is the lesson which nature teaches by every wild flower in every sunny vale and woodland dingle; that is, that light and shade color and form, freedom and grace, and simplicity are the crowning elements of loveliness in Flora's world.
