The Weekly Florists' Review* 



aEPTKMBKR ^9, 1S9S. 



WASHINGTON. 



Business for the past week shows a 

 fonsiderable gain over the week be- 

 fore, and prices are somewhat stiffer. 



The store of J. L. Loose came near 

 being destroyed uy fire last week. 

 There was a very -large fire across the 

 street and the front of Mr. Loose's 

 store was badly scorched and his stock 

 drenched with water. Loss about $3.- 

 000. covered by ln:^urance. 



A. Glide & Bro. are having their 

 store newly painted and refitted, and a 

 handsome iieiv ice box put in. making 

 their store one of the handsomest in 

 the city. 



The most noted work of the week 

 was the elaborate decoration of the 

 National Rifles' Armory with palms 

 and flowers for the convention of the 

 Order of the Eastern Star. 11 was 

 magnificently done. 



•John Robertson, formerly of the Ag- 

 ricultural Gardens, has bought the 

 store of J. D. Davidson at l{o8 Ciiu- 

 uecticut ave. Mr. Davidson has em- 

 barked in the wholesale carnation 

 business. He is very popular with the 

 craft and has the best wishes of all for 

 success. 



W. R. Smith has fully recovered and 

 can now be seen at his post of duty.

Two^ small sub-tropical beds at 

 Queen's Park this summer are worthy 

 of notice. They were composed of a 

 few nice plants of phoenix and lata- 

 nia planted alternately witli Acaly- 

 phas discolor and marginata, Alter- 

 nanthera aureum being used for the 

 ground work. The color of the acaly- 

 phas was most pleasing and restful 

 to the eye. At this season of the year 

 the beds of geraniums and coleus be- 

 gin to look ragged, but the sub-tropi- 

 cal beds noted will continue in fine 

 shape till Jack Frost puts in an ap- 

 pearance. 



From what I can learn there is likely 

 to be keen competition in the amateur 

 class at the coming Chrysanthemum 

 Show, as many of the amateurs are 

 trying their hand at chrysanthemum 

 growing and with great success.
