But some expert tricks of the trade can- help persuade plants to last longer and sometimes to bloom again next year One of the touchiest of win- ter plants is the colorful. poin- settia, says a Canadian plant authority. This native flower of Mexico must be moist at all times but never have wet feet, according to Harry D. Dale of The Dale Estate Limited Brampton, Ont., world's largest grower of cut flowers and plants. Keep the plant in bright light, away from drafts, and pour off excess moisture after watering, Mr. Dale advises. As poinsettia leaves turn yel- low, remove them. After the bloom has dropped, the plant and the fern used as fill will make an attractive green nouse- plant for several more weeks.! And if you're brave enough to| try for another round of blooms, dry out the poinsettia the basement for a few : after blooming, repot it in med- ium rich soil in' spring, keep it moist and in bright light, and watch for blooms. DELICATE CYCLAMEN Another Christmas favorite, the cyclamen, requires much the same care, It should be al- ways moist, without wet feet and if possible, it. should be re- moved to a cool place at night For a second round of blooms, follow the rules for poinsettias, Mr. Dale advises, but don't be disappointed if you're unsuccess- ful Azalea fanciers are in for a surprise this year. The vivid winter plants, traditionally im- ported from Belgium, were this vear procured from the U.S and Holland, because of an em- bargo due to a dangerous para- site found. in Belgian soil; the golden nematode For any beginner in needle- craft. here is a guest towel made wich a huck weaving stitch.

"'It's the only plant that's safe with wet feet," said Harry Dale. 'Water it twice a day and if by chance it dries out, steep it overnight n the bathtub with water right over the pot. It's a very thirsty plant.' After blooms have dropped, keep the plant moist and in spring, plant it under a shady tree in the garden for more glorious blooms in autumn. Begonias require the coolest spot in the house, medium mois- tre and no drafts -- otherwise they'll systematically drop every blossom, After blooming, pinch back the remaining points and the plant will burst into flower again. After. the second round, repot the begonia, keep it moist and be ready for blooms again' next fall The vivid kalanchoe is the Christmas plant best suited to the dry, warm atmosphere of modern homes, says Mr. Dale. It should never be allowed to dry out, however. If the plant is pinched back and repotted after blooming, it will bloom jagain NO FERTILIZER NEEDED During their first season, fowering Christmas plants will not require fertilizer, since ey ferent pinks in are fully grown in the. green- house. | What they do need is humid-} ity in any form. A humidifier in the house solves that probiem but failing that, lukewarm water sprayed from a perfume atom- izer directly on leaves and blooms daily will help. Another trick is to place the flower pots} in a tray of sand and gravel which is. kept moist HOUSEHOLD HINT A rubber pad in the seat of baby's high chair will keep the restless little one from slipping out. i GUEST TOWEL addressed envelope and. 10 ten cents for handling to the Needlework Department, The | Electrolysis Removes warts, moles and superfluous hair, Over 15 Years' Experience MARIE MURDUFF will be in Oshewe et the Genosha Hotel, Dec, 30, 31 PHONE 723-4641 For appointment on these dates sour milk to equal 1% tsp. of the double acting or 2 tsp. of t'e regular baking powder H H LIGHT AND FLUFFY, LEMON DELIGHT CAKE Wemen Jo Aldwinckie, Women' : THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, December 30,1963 7) \Try Lemon Delight for New Lemon Flavor Pleases the Palate As Climax to a Hearty Dinner or until cake springs back when touched lightly.
