Camellias need a cool and moist houses, not allowing the thermometer to get above from fifty to fifty-five de- grees F. In winter. In summer give to the plants all the air that is pos- sible. 3* 57 58 CAMELLIA CULTURE. CAMELLIA CULTURE. 59 Have the house so arranged that it can be aired from the sides as well as from the top. I find that airing in this way adds considerably to the number of buds on the plants. During the summer have the glass partly shaded, and in very warm weather water the pa...thways in mid-day, to create a moisture which will help keep the house cool. Figure 22 represents my lean-to house, seventy-five feet long by sixteen feet wide. The bed for planting out being only nine feet wide, the bench three feet wide for plants in pots. Plants in this house grow rather one-sided, and are not at all shapely ; those which are grown in my span roof or double-pitch house are well shaped, being uni- form on all sides. I would not advise Camellias to be grown in a lean-to house. CAMELLIA CULTURE.
