1 Notes for the Second Half of October
* -fThe second part of Octo- “Usu-Benl" has
b(r could be rightly called J--u’-
the most colorful time of
the fall. Shoxi Id the
weather be without frost.
thiS color should continue
till mid November. We
have had Such seasons
when all flowers bloomed
themselves out before the
killing frost arrived.
Chryrarlhemums are the
reig:ing flowers of the
Autumn They belong to
the plants which need long
nights to initiate and bring
the buds to flower. Some
earlier varieties will bloom
rbout October 20, followed
by the others. Those which
"re really fine varieties—
whether standards, pom-
rons or Fjji3~bloom in
November. I still believe it
is good to take the chance
a d grow' these blooming
naturally in November.
Roses
Roses, which were prun-
ed first week of September,
should be very good at
that time. Cool weather
will bring back their size
and color. Remember that
cool nights will also create
excellent conditions for
powdery mildew. Examine
your Roses everv day. and
if you notice mildew, spray.
Roses at this time are not
immune from attacks or

Mountain" and “Pink
Snow" are very beautiful
double Sasanquas, but they
are late, bloomers' and
tender. Frost wtll kill open,
flowers arid buds, too. If
you have a protected corn-
_*r hear the house, you can
grow them.
Salvia Splendens
There is no other annual
which can glow so glorious-
ly even in dark corners of
the gardens, stay in bloom
from late June till frost
and be so free fro m
diseases than Salvia Splen-
dens. If planted with blue
Salvia leucantha or Salvft
patens, the effect is very
pleasing. About the end of
October Cassia Splendida
or Golden Cassia begins to
bloom. Its long arching
golden yellow clusters are
gems of the Autumn
'hrubs. Any frost will kill
them, true, but they are
worth it to chance them
every year. We have had
them in the Gardens for
about 10 years and would
not discontinue growing
them jqri because they
may be killed by frost.
