price for geraniums is 7 cents for 4-inch 

 stuff, which is enough if they are fine. 

 There are some nice verbenas about in 

 4-inch pots at 8 cents, which appear to 

 take better than the 3-inch. 



Theodore Leissig, 3420 Frankford 

 avenue, has a well grown collection of 

 bedding plants, including geraniums, 

 .••.geratums and in fact almost everything 

 that is in demand. 



The Floral Exchange have their new 

 range of houses ready for glazing. These 

 houses are supposed to be the palace of 

 the Queen of Edgely. 



Some of the retailers are complain- 

 ing that they cannot get the pot roses 

 they want because the growers have sold 

 them to the department stores. The 

 early bird gets the worm every time, 

 gentlemen. 



George Anderson is going to plant a 

 house of Liberty this season. 



Robert Craig & Sons have just planted 

 a house of the rose Marquise Litta. 



Stephen Mortensen has already 

 cleaned up three-quarters of his young 

 roses. They were certainly very well 

 done. 



John Savage has been experimenting 

 with white snapdragon as a cut flower. 



J. W. Colflesh has his specialty, bed- 

 ding plants, in full swing now. His 

 double petunias and Phlox Drummondii 

 are very fine. He also has nice Pyre- 

 thrum aurcum and geraniums of Bruant 

 type, besides a general line of this class 

 of stock. 



Samuel J. Bunting has tried grafted 

 and own root Brides and Maids and 

 prefers the former. This is not, however, 

 the general feeling here. The majority 

 of our growers seem to prefer own root 

 stock, although there is a strong minor- 

 ity for the grafted plants. 



The seedsmen are rushed with work 

 now; their stores are busy places. 



A house fell in last Saturday morning 

 right in front of William J. Baker's 

 commission house. Fortunately no one 

 was injured. The accident was due to 

 the foundation lieing undermined by an 

 adjoiiiiiiL' rsi :i\:il inn. 



Till' I'l'iii-i ' I hill meeting was held 

 on Tu. il,i\ mmiiiil; at Horticultural 

 Hall. Uuhiit ];. Cudlund, of Thomas 

 Meehan & Sons, Germantown, read a pa- 

 per on landscaping as a part of the flor- 

 ist's business. 



The fifth Ladies' Night at the club 

 will take place on Wednesday, May 15. 

 It will be the first of these entertain- 

 ments to begin in the afternoon at 4 

 o'clock, continuing throughout the even- 

 ing. The committee, of which .John West- 

 cott is chairman, have issued a neat 

 program. There will be bowling, shuf- 

 fle boards, refreshments and good com- 

 pany. It is hoped each member will 

 come and bring both maid and matron 

 with him. 



It is sad to be referred to as the au- 

 thor of a paragraph which while intend- 

 ed to cheer our comrade gave pain in 

 quite an unexpected quarter. Perhaps 

 some (lay persistent endeavor will create 

 a great essay on outdoor watering or 

 something else that is really clever.
