Fruit Garden.-lf v1nes have been neglected to be pruned, rub oft the buds that are not wanted, th1s lb safer than pruning now. Protect the finer sorts of fru1t trees on the walls The hard1er orehard-house fru1ts should now be moved outdoors under temporary awnings, to glV€ the choicer fru1ts more space, -the roots being protected by plunging the pots Mulch all newly-planted fruit trees, water1ng abundantly in dry weather.

Forcing.-Continue the preparation of succession beds and pits for cucumbers and melons. Sow; pot tomatoes and capsicums for succession. Poll1nate tomatoes by hand to ensure early fruit on plants intended for outdoor culture. In the forcing-houses, from the variable state of the weather, considerable vigilance is required 1n glVlI'lg a1r Keep down red spider (Aearus) in the more advanced houses by frequent syringing and a well-moistened atmosphere. Cont1nue the usual operations of disbudd1ng and thinning of fruit, and take care to keep up the proper temperatures. Plant }101»¢S€$.*Stlll sow tender annuals if required; also cinerarias and primulas Proceed Wlth all necessary shift1ngs. Propagate rare and fine plants by cuttings or grafting; increase bouvardias by cuttings, and grow on for w1nter flowering. Pot off tender annuals, and cuttings of half-hardy greenhouse plants put in during February to get them well established for use in the flower garden. Transfer chry santhemums to sheltered positrons out of doors, and provide means of protecting them from frost and cutting winds. Flower Garden and Shrubbery.-Sow main or successional crops of annuals of all sorts-half-hardy annuals in warm borders, or on sl1ght liotbeds B1ennials and perennials should be sown before the m1ddle of the month. Plant out gladioli, if not done, tigridias and fine stocks F1n1sh the transplanting of herbaceous plants by the end of the first week. Cutt1ngs of border chrysanthemums may now be d1bbled 1n a warm spot out of doors. Protect stage auricular and hac1nths from extremes of every description of weather; and tul1ps from hoar-frosts and heavy rains. Plant out tender deciduous trees and shrubs ra1sed in pots; plant out tea-roses, mulching the roots Remoxe part of the coverings of all tender shrubs and plants 1n the first week, and the remainder at the end of the month. Form and repa1r lawns and grass walks by laying turf and sowing perenmal grass-seeds; mow the lawns frequently; plant evergreens. MAY

Mun Garden -D1sbud peaches, nectarines and other early trees against the walls, also attend to the thinning of fruit. Give occas1o11al washings w1th the eng1ne to keep down insects. Pick caterpillars from gooseberries and wall trees on the1r first appearance. Remoe from raspberries and strawberries all suckers and runners that are not wanted.

Fornng -Plant melons and cucumbers on the hotbeds prepared for vegetables in February, a11d now free. Plant out vegetable niarrows and pumpkins on dung-r1dges, under hand-glasses. Sow late trops of cucumbers and melons

Plant Houses.-Turn out hardy plants about the middle, and the more tender at the latter end of the month Sow tender annuals for succession, potting and sl11ft1ng those sown at an earlier period; sow cinerarias for suceess1on; and a few hardy annuals and tenweek stock. &c, tor late crops Pot off all rooted cuttings. Put in cuttings of the different desirable species wh1ch are now Ht for that purpose Plant out 1n r1ch soil R1chard1as, to be potted up in autumn for flowering Beddmg plants should be placed to harden in sheltered pos1t1ons out of doors towards end of month Towards the end of the month many of the ma1n stock of chrysanthemums w1ll be ready for the final potting

Flower Garden -Sow annuals for succession in the last week, also b1enn1als and perenmals in the nursery compartment, for planting out next year Propagate plants of which more stock is required either by cuttmgs or by d1vid1ng the roots. Plant out, dunng the last week, dahlias, hardy pelargoniums, stocks and calceolarias, protecting the dahhas from sl1ght frosts By the end of the month, masses of the following plants may be formed with safety ll] warm localities -pelargon1um, hel1otrop1um, fuchsia, petuma, n1ere1nberg1a, salv1a, xerbena, bouvard1a and lobel1a Protect tul1ps, ranunculuses and anemo11es from the mid-day sun, and from ra1ns and winds. Remove the cover1ngs from all tender plants in the open air

Shrnbbery.—Transplant all kinds of evergreens, this month and September be1ng the proper seasons The rarer con1fers should be planted now and in June, after they have commenced to grow. Proceed w1th the lay1ng down of lawns and gravel-walks, and keep the former regularly mown

JUNE

Knchen Garden -Sow kidne -beans for s11ccess1on; also the wrinkled marrow peas and Sev1ll]e Longpod and W1ndsor beans for late cro s Sow salad1ng every ten days; also carrots, onions and radishes for drawing young, and chicory for salads; sow endive for a full cro in the f1rst week sow Early Mun1ch and Golden Ball turnips for succession, and in the th1rd week for a full autumn crop. Sow scarlet and wh1te runner beans for a late crop, and cabbages for coleworts. Make up successional mushroom beds early in the month. Plant full crops of broccoli, Brussels sprouts, savoys, kales, leeks and early celery, with successional crops of cabbage and cauliflower. In the first fortnight of the month, plant hardy cucumbers for pickling, in a warm border, plac1ng hand glasses over them towards the end of the month. Plant out caps1eums and tomatoes in sunny pos1t1ons, and stake and tie securely. Pull and store winter onions, if r1pe.

Frull Garden -Train and prune the summer shoots of wall and trellis and other trained trees. Mulch and water fruit trees and strawberries in dry weather, desisting when the fruit begins to r1pen. Net over cherry-trees. Destroy aphides and other insects by syringing with tobacco water, or by fumigating, or by dusting with tobacco powder.

Forczng.-Proceed with planting melons, cucumbers and tomatoes. Keep up the necessary temperatures for the ripening of the various fruits. Ventilation will st1ll require constant care. Tomatoes will now be fru1t1ng freely; th1n out ]udic1ously, avoiding excessive pruning at one time. Attend to the gather1ng of fruit as it r1pens

Plant Houses.—These will now be occupied with tender greenhouse plants and annuals, and the more hardy plants from the stove. Shift, repot and propagate all plants that are desirable. Sow fragrant or showy annuals to flower in pots during winter, and grow on a set of decorative plants for the same object. Continue the final potting of chrysanthemums as the plants become ready. Flower Garden.~Plant out dahlias and other tender subjects, if risk of frost 15 past. Take up bulbs and tuberous roots and dry them in the shade before removing them to the store-room. Fill up with annuals and greenhouse plants those beds from which the bulbs and roots have been raised.

Gather and dry herbs; also propagate these by slips and cuttings.

Fruit Garden -Continue the pruning and training of wall and espalier trees, and the destruction of noxious insects. Pot strawberries for forcing next winter, and make new beds out of doors as soon as well-rooted runners can be obtained Propagate the different sorts of stone fruit trees b budding on other trees or on prepared stocks. Gather fru1ts of allfkinds as they ripe11. Forcing — Prune melons and cucumbers, g1ving air and water and maintaining heat, &c Continue the routine treatment in the tomato houses. Feed the plants artificially as soon as good crops are set; do not wait for signs of distress The forcing-houses ought to have abundance of fresh air and moisture where required, along with the necessary heat.

Plant Houses.-Ventilation will be necessary to keep down excessive heat; and attention must be (paid to potting, shifting and putting in cuttings, and g1ving abun ance of water to the potted plants, both indoors and out. Sow seed of herbaceous calceolar1as; sh1ft heaths, if they require it; cut down pelargoniums past flowering, and plant the cuttings.

Flower Garden and Skrubbery.-Take up the remaining tuberous roots, such as anemones, ranunculuses, &c, by the end of the first week; fill up their places, and any vacancies that may have oecurred,

with annuals or bedding plants from the reserve ground.
