Like arrangements of cut flowers, potted plants in every home are considered a necessity._of life. In any spring trip to Holland last year, rarely did I see a house, school, office or apartment window un- adorned with plants. In the cities, house win- dows are located either right on the sidewalks, or very close to them so that the passerby can easily take note of the kinds of house- plants that are popular with indoor gardeners. Today, may I invite you to take a stroll with me along the streets of the Hague, where we can gather ideas together for our own house- plant collections. The heavy white lace cur- taining that frames the top and sides of most windows in Dutch homes presents a per- fect setting for a display of plants. Probably the most simple elegant and at the same time cheerful picture I noticed was a bushy red - flowering garden geranium set between the curved lines of white curtains. One smaller, east -facing window that especially caught my interest was filled and decorated entirely with one plant, a beautiful oak - leaf scented geranium trained on a stout bamboo stake to fill the window space about two feet wide and three feet high. This beauti- ful houseplant created a most graceful and homely picture, its dainty filagreed foliage dotted with clusters of pink buds and blossoms. Most windows, however, featured an artful combina- tion of flowering and foliage plants. Flowering chrysan- themums, hydrangeas, cy- clamens and orchid cactus seemed very popularand were often grouped together along with foliage plants like Norfold Island pines, fiddle - leaf fig and the large -leafed climbing ivy called Fatshe- dera. Where these were flourish- ing together, the light was bright • without direct sun, and the rooms, I suspect, must have been rather cool all the flowering plants in this collection require cool temperatures and high humidity. Another flowering plant that appeared singly or in small groups in many win- dows was the amaryllis.: And I noticed that amaryllis bulbs were still being sold in great quantities in garden shops in late April when my wife and I. were there. One home owner created a most artistic display with a large front window in which were centered three. red - flowering amaryllis. Sur- rounding them. were several kinds of bushy, spreading fibrous begonias and impa- tiens. One of my old friends, the' double rose impatiens, was among them. This houseplant dilay was in . Limmen, home of the Flowerbulb Museum and Hortus Bulborum, a garden in which all the old kinds of flower bulbs are kept in exis- tence both for their historical value and the important genetic material they con- tain. Each spring in `Limmen, home gardeners enter their gardens in a contest for the best spring outdoor display. The window'Which I just de- scribed was at the home of the top prize-winning gar- den, which was filled with complementary groupings of spring -flowering bulbs. Underneath the front win- dow filled with flowering houseplants ran a long, nar- row bed planted with pink and white low double early tulips combined with purple muscari, a most happy and harmonious combination. The proud Dutch gardener whose efforts produced these indoor and outdoor garden delights was only too pleased to pose for photographs amid his beloved plantings. Not unlike gardeners every- where, he was delighted to be aIIYe to share the fruits of his endeavors.
