. The blossom circle of the year in southern gardens. Gardening. no THE BLOSSOM CIRCLE OF THE YEAR. JUNE OPENS THE TRUSSES OF THE PERENNIAL PHLOX This flower is well called the Queen of the southern Summer garden of the next year will come, may put forth in abundance. The symmetry of the specimens may also be improved by the use of the clippers at this time—but be careful not to cut too much. The Cydonias, Deutzias, Philadelphius, Jasminums, Spiraeas, Viburnums, Syringas, Punicas, Forsythias, Weigelas and Hy- drangeas and the Spring blossoming vines, like the Wistarias and Jasmines, should all receive careful attention. None of them should be touched until the blooming season is over. For most of these June is the right month, but some of the later-blooming ones had better be left until July. The broad-leaved evergreens I never prune at all, except to take off the dead branches after a trying Winter, and possibly to remove some of the lower shoots for the sake of neatness. By the end of June the Sweet Peas will be over and the trel- lises must be removed and carefully put away until another year rolls around. The long lines left vacant, when the Pansies are thrown out, the places where the Poppies glorified the border and where the Sweet Peas blossomed for so many weeks, are.
