To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Take cuttings from the old plants at least once a year. In four or five months the young plants begin to bloom. Plants may be taken up from the garden and potted, but they rarely give as much satisfac- tion as young, vigorous subjects; new plants should be grown every year. Repot frequently until they are in 4- to 5-inch pots; then let them bloom. The show pelargoniums have but one period of bloom, usually in April, but they make up in size and coloring. This section is more difficult to manage... as house-plants than the common geranium, need- ing more direct light to keep it stocky, and being troubled by insects. Still, all the trouble taken to grow the plants will be well repaid by the handsome blossoms. Take cuttings in late spring, after flowering, and blooming plants may be had the following year. Good results are sometimes secured by keeping these plants two or three years. Cut back after each blooming season. For house culture the geraniums need a fertile, fibrous loam, with the addition of a little sand; good drainage is also an essantial.
