To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It lias been well said that only the very rich can afford to adorn the home-grounds with palms and the iiice; yet one sees most frequently the plants of ephemeral character— cannas, coleus, geraniums, palms, tender ferns, etc. Scarcely a score of species are included in the usual round of easily grown and as easily killed plants offered for home adornment by the florists; yet I have named at least a hundred hardy plants and vines that give greater beauty from time to time, and increase in stren...gth from year to year. True, these hardy plants do not bloom continually, but that is one of their merits; for it means a changing feast of flow- ers in the well-planted home-yard, and this without the elaborate and continual attention required to keep in order the ordinary "beds" that are the same from July until frost. An occasional palm or fern as a pet plant, to be taken into the living-room over winter; some of the easy-blooming tender plants for the window- box; heliotropes and mignonette and sweet alyssum for fragrance in the home — these can be cared for to advantage.
