Growth Like Jack's Beanstalk
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York nU.PJ Our green
thumb has moved indoors.
Florists and nurserymen re
port that the indoor gardening
hobby in the last 15 years has
shot upward like Jack's bean
stalk. Today, women and some
men are potting everything from
ivy to African violets, from
mother - in - law's tongue to or
chids. The results of their hobby
show alike in one room city
apartments and small green
houses in suburbia.
By far the greater increase
has been in cultivation, of green
or foliage plants, rather than
the flowering such as azalea or
hydrangea, florists said. Green
plants last longer. One florist
explained that "even with the
worst care, they're good for at
least six months."
The first and only govern
ment census on the subject, is
sued in 1949, showed that 35
million "unfinished" and 39 mil
lion "finished" green plants
were sold.
More Plants Sold
Unfinished and finished are
commercial terms to describe
the degree of a plant's growth
by the time it reaches the home.
The unfinished are the smaller,
less mature.
"The number of plants sold
has more than doubled since
that 1949 count," said Truman
Fossum, a horticulturist and ag
ricultural economist, who com
piled the census. Fossum, now
with a New York advertising
I agency, then was on loan to the
I Department of Agriculture from
I Cornell university's department
ot iionculture.
He gave three reasons why
more of us have turned "dish
gardener," his term for the in
door green thumbers who culti
vate plants in containers rang
ing from decorative dishes to
small wash tubs.
Housewives Want Change
The biggest one is availabil
ity. Shipping facilities have
been so improved that now trop
ical-type plants started in such
warm areas as Florida and Cal
ifornia are available in most
parts of the nation.
Home decoration is another.
Housewives want some "break"
from the starkness of modern
homes and their furnishings.
Plants help provide it.
Indoor gardens (the term
"house plants" now is consid
ered old-fashioned) also help
bring the outdoor look to homes
with masses of glass walls.
"And," said Fossum, "as we
get more urbanized, we grow
more indoors. It's the desire, to

Sort of spring the year round.
Fossum said there is even one
Sari Francisco store which runs

ice.' The grower can take his
plants in for fumigation, a bath
and a change of soil.
