'plants Need Care At V acation Time You've made arrange ments to have the dog fed and the grass cut, but have you planned for your house plants while you are away aft vacation The amount of attention your houseplants will need depends on the length of time you are to be away and the type of plants you have, gay extension horticultural specialists at North Carolina State University. ? For weekend trips or trips of three or four days, your plants may not need any feudal attention or extra care. In fact, some cacti and succulents can go for weeks without watering. Other plants such as ferns, crotons, caladiums and sultanas (impatjens) are more drought sensitive. While there is no foolproof w^y to provide for your plants while you are away, best solution is to have a friend who knows about plants to tend to them. Per sonal attention of this type is the only method to care for your plants if you are going to be away for any great length of time. Make the job easier for your plant-sitter by gather ing the plants from all over the house together in one place. If you fear your house will become too hot and stuffy with the air con ditioning off and the doors and windows closed, you may want to move your plants to a shaded area such as under a tree or on the carport. The location should be close to a spigot or ac cessible with the hose. One thing to remember is, strong winds that often accompany stimmer" thunderclouds can turn pots over and whip large plants. Demonstrate for you friend how you water. Show him the plants that need misting. Bromeliads need water poured into the center of their "vase" of leaves, but cold water on the leaves of African violets and episicias will cause unslightly spots. If you know the watering needs of your plants well enough, leave a schedule for your plant-sitter. You could arrange the plants in groups r according to when they should be watered such as those that need to be watered every day, every other day or every five days, for example. This will sim plify the job and take out some of the guesswork for the plant-sitter. Making provisions for your houseplants will give you one less thing to worry about while you are on va cation and help insure that, when you return, your plants will be as lush and healthy as when you left. i : a .s ? ? -t Meters To Be Read Monthly All water meters in Mag nolia will be read once a month and water-sewer bills will be mailed monthly, the Town Board decided last week.
