Excerpt from The Florist and Horticultural Journal, 1853, Vol. 2: A Monthly Magazine of Horticulture, Agriculture, Botany, Agricultural Chemistry, Entomology, &C The Home - The best aspect for this, is like the best soil for them, a much debated subject. In a late volume of the Companion to the Flower Garden, I observe that one writer insists on the ad vantages his plants derived from bein g placed in a shady situation on a northern aspect in summer, while another describes the luxu riant and healthy specimens he got by placing them in the full sun, under a south wall In America this latter mode would never do. In a well constructed house a northern aspect is perhaps as good as any; it admits a large amount of light, while it prevents the plants from having their leaves scorched by a sudden burst of sun in win ter or early spring. Arrangements should be made for keeping the house above 36° or 40° in the severest weather; a common well made flue will be effectual where the house is-small, but wherever the size of the house will warrant it, hot water pipes are much bet ter, as the best constructed flue will allow injurious gases to escape at times, more especially where anthracite is used as fuel.

Excerpt from The Florist and Horticultural Journal, Vol. 3: A Monthly Magazine of Horticulture, Agriculture, Botany, Agricultural Chemistry, Entomology, &C It is generally acknowledged that England possesses no example of pwb lic gardens worthy of her intelligence and limitless resources, and that in this respect she has hitherto been greatly outstripped by her neighbor France. Of recent years the Royal Gardens at Kew have been greatly en-r larged and vastly improved, and now certainly occupy the first place in Europe as botanical gardens. But although these are tastefully laid out, their artificial decorations hardly deserve the name when compared with such as are to be seen in France. The reason of this inferiority on the part of England is no doubt to be found in the fact, that while the government of France has been in the habit of undertaking the execution of great public works for the people, the English government leaves all such works to be executed by the people, or by private companies; and until Sir Joseph Paxton's happy idea of combining gardens with the Crystal Palace, no com pany seems to have ventured upon the formation of highly artistic gardens for the people. Now, however, the Crystal Palace Company, aided by the genius of Sir Joseph Paxton, bids fair to produce such a work as will place England as much in advance in this respect as she has hitherto been behind.
