Indoor Outdoor Plants: The cool moist atmosphere of London makes cultivation of chrysanthemums, cinerarias, primroses, and the cool-loving bulbs comparatively easy in the home or a small greenhouse. The more severe winters of Chicago call for steam heating of apartments, and the choice of plants would turn to those, such as the members of the Arum family, that thrive under warm conditions. Plants of both regions have a common enemy, the dirt from factories, the annual fall of which is measured in tons. In both regions outdoor and indoor outdoor plants plants alike need frequent washing. Chicago gives the added difficulty of frequent gales of high velocity.
