Crawford, horticultural specia- list, Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food. if the plants are in good condition, the whole plant 110 can bq dug up. Make sure there are no insects by gently hosing down the foliage. Repot U ne essary, and take them indoor Some Plants are kept best if they are grown indoors from cut- tings. Fuchsia can be propag- ated by stem cuttings taken from new growth. After the cuttings are well rooted, plant them in a good soil mixture containing con- siderable amount of organic mat- ter and enough sand for good drainage. Fuchsia need to be repotted several times during the early stages of growth. The • plants thrive in a temperature below 70 degrees and in an east- ern exposure. Avoid drafts and sudden temperature changes. Keep the plants well watered. If the plants become too dry the leaves and flower buds may drop off. • Impatiens or patience plant is another that does best when taken -from cuttings. After rooting, pot in a mixture of 7 parte soil, 3 paits organic matter and 2 parts sand, These plants grow and bloom best in small pots. Depending on the type, • begonias may also be grown by leaf-petiole cuttingS. Foliage, tuberous and semi-tuberous types can be propagated by plac- ing leaves flat on the rooting medium with some of the main veins cut and held down with pebbles. Roots will form at the cuts. The fibrous-rooted be- gonias are usually grown from seed, since cuttings produce scraggly plants. Pot the plants in a soil mixture containing con- siderable sand and peat moss or leafmold. Begonias grow best in cool temperatures in good • light. Whether you are potting root- ed cuttings or repotting a large plant, remember that most grow- ing problems are caused by/im- i.; proper drainage. Soi r id this by making sure the s s pro perly drained. ,With srnall pots, placing coarse peat or riree's in • the bottom is usually enough. For larger pots, place gravel or. small stones and then a piece of broken flower pot, concave side down, over the drainage hole. ' One 'of the advantages of grow- * ing these plants indoors during the winter is that more, cuttings can be made from them and root- ed for transplanting outdoors in the spring. 4-H clubs Achievement days • The Home Economics branch of the Ontario Ministry of Ag- riculture and Food is again hold- ing- 4-H Homemaking Club Achievement"- Days in Huron County.
