What reading level is The Flower Garden a Handbook of Practical Garden Lore book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the early morning it is very sluggish, and may be picked off and killed, or the plants may be showered with the Paris-green solution, but the appearance of the first bug must be the signal for active operations.
248 The Flower Garden [Chapter Plant Louse or Green Fly : This little insect com- monly infests house-plants; it is called a fly because in one stage of its existence it has wings. The rem- edies are tobacco in some form, or sulpho-tobacco soap syringed on the foliage, or the hot-wat...er bath.
Black or Chrysanthemum Lice require practically the same treatment. Tobacco-dust on the leaves will usually prevent their appearance, and should be ap- plied early in the summer and after every rain.
The Mealy Bug is a little whitish mass, like cotton in appearance, often found on house-plants and on the Spiraeas. Syringe with whale-oil soap solution; or, if the plant is small, work over it, touching each bug with a brush dipped in alcohol ; or use the hot-water bath.
Red Spider can only be kept at bay by fresh air and the plentiful use of water; spray or syringe daily.
