The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



MADISON, N. J. 



Club Notes. 



The Morris County Gardeners' and 

 Florists' Society does not adjourn for 

 the summer months and last Wednes- 

 day's meeting was as well attended as 

 any winter session and altogether a 

 noteworthy one by reason of the splen- 

 did exliibition the members put up in. 

 competition in the several classes. 



The wild flower class brought out 3 

 fine exhibits. 



E. Regan, of Morris Plains, secured 

 the full award of 15 points with a col- 

 lection of over 70 named species and 

 varieties. A. Herrington came next 

 with a choice selection of 4"2 varieties, 

 each represented by a good bunch and 

 all well set up in vases. A. Coren had 

 a smaller but choice lot. 



P. Cox made a fine showing in the 

 perennial class, phloxes being particu- 

 larly fine. He received the full award 

 of 20 points. 



W. Duckham brought down a nice 

 collection of sweet peas, and J. Rob- 

 ertson well maintained his prestige in 

 the vegetable class with a grand ex- 

 hibit of a dozen varieties. 



In the absence of Mr. McNulty, who 

 was to have opened a talk on roses, 

 the president called on A. Herrington 

 to open a talk on the exhibits of the 

 evening, and the time was profitably 

 spent talking about and examining the 

 various exhibits. Four new -nembers 

 were proposed and the question of a 

 club outing was discussed, finding 

 hearty endorsement by all present.

ALBANY, N. Y. 



Mr. Louis Menand, the veteran flor- 

 ist, has decided to dispose of his stock 

 of plants, including a number of pets 

 that he has cared for over 60 years. 

 It will certainly be a most interesting 

 sale. Mr. Menand is the oldest living 

 florist in America. He came here from 

 France when the florist trade in this 

 country was in its very early infancy 

 and has lived to see it grow to its pres- 

 ent magnificent proportions. Though 

 over 90 years old he has up to this time 

 maintained an active connection with 

 the business. He is certainly entitled 

 to relief from all care in connection 

 with his plants. 



TACOMA, WASH.— McCoy's annual 

 exhibition of sweet peas was given 

 July 1.3 and 14. Among the special at- 

 tractions was his new sweet pea "Ta- 

 coma." 



CLYDE, O.— The firm of E. Hall & 

 Son has been dissolved, Mr. E. Hall re- 

 tiring. The business will be continued 

 lay Mr. W. E. Hall.
