Download or read book Greenhouse Gardener's Companion written by Shane Smith and published by Fulcrum Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The director of Cheyenne Botanic Gardens and author of The Bountiful Solar Greenhouse has produced a practical, comprehensive guide to making the most of any greenhouse or garden room. Addressing almost every aspect except the actual construction, Smith covers the greenhouse environment (light, humidity, temperature), interior design (plant placement, fans, drainage), individual plants and their propagation, pollination, growth, and scheduling for flower or fruit production. There are chapters on problems, diseases, and insects, and lists of associations, mail-order suppliers, and sun averages during the year across the country. As a Wyoming gardener, he puts a good deal of emphasis on using the greenhouse in summer as well as in winter, but this is a useful, practical guide for readers in most of the continental United States.

Book excerpt: Christmas cacti are a completely popular houseplant-and for desirable purpose! When they bloom, they produce colorful, tubular flowers in purple or lilac colors. Their beautiful flora, lengthy bloom time, and clean care necessities lead them to a splendid plant. We'll bet someone on your family has a Christmas cactus!Unlike many other cacti, Christmas cacti and their loved ones don't stay in arid environments. Their herbal dependency is one among an epiphyte dwelling in tree branches in the rain forests of Brazil! In different phrases, they select a damp climate, now not a dry one, so it's critical to water those cacti extra often than maximum succulents.You may assume a cactus makes for an unusual Christmas plant, but while the Christmas cactus (Schlumbergerabridgessii) is covered in blooms, it's far a most welcome sight in the center of winter. Given a few minimal care, your Christmas cactus will bloom on its own. However, it won't bloom for the holidays. If you want your plant to be on complete show at some point of the holiday season, you may have to force it into dormancy approximately 8 weeks earlier than you need flowers. It sounds complicated, but it definitely does not require a good deal attempt. The hardest element is remembering to do it.
