Peat or leaf- mold, loam and sand in equal parts, with a little charcoal added, form the best soil. The species common in cultivation are quick- growing. They are well suited for planting out in greenhouse borders. The sexes are on different plants; therefore several should be planted in a group if the handsomely colored fruit is desired. All of the kinds require warm temperature in winter. Increased from seeds. Of the many species, only a few appear in the American trade. (G. W. Oliver.) | Peat or leaf- mold, loam and sand in equal parts, with a little charcoal added, form the best soil. The species common in cultivation are quick- growing.
