The American gardener's magazine and register of useful discoveries and improvements in horticulture and rural affairs . 204 Account of the Camellia House and Stove the shoots of grajje vines during the winter season when not in agrowing state. This is an excellent plan where vines are intro- 6. duced into a green-house, as it serves for a shelf, during the win-ter, for many small plants, and, as the shoots of the vines are notseen, the house has a very neat appearance. But we very muchdoubt the utility of introducing vines where a fine collection ofplants are grown ; both vines and plants are injured ; the formerproducing small crops, and the latter becoming sickly from confinedair and shade ; both cannot be cultivated in a healthy state to-gether.
