The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



OCTOBER 2U, i;9i. 



GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. 



The weather has turned cooler, aud 

 now the quality of violets will improve 

 rapidly. Mums are becoming more 

 plentiful. Mad. Bergman for white 

 and Glory of the Pacific for pink are 

 the two earliest varielies. Crabb Sz 

 Hunter had a fine batch in a week 

 earlier than the rest of the boys and 

 hit it fine. They grow about 2,000 

 plants of the earlies in 6-inch pots, two 

 to three flowers to a plant, and it 

 works all right. 



Although flowers are very abundant, 

 business is first class, as receptions, 

 weddings and funeral orders, in addi- 

 tion to outside shipping, which is in- 

 creasing some over last week, seem 

 to make little impression on the bulk 

 of flowers on the market. Take carna- 

 tions, for instance; one can go out in 

 the field and gather a few thousand 

 and not miss them. A good hard frost, 

 though, will spoil all remaining out- 

 door stuff. 



The sale of roses is dropping off 

 somewhat and mums being demanded 

 in their stead. 



Frank Paine, of Traverse City, and 

 S. J. Long and wife, of Petoskey, were 

 recent visitors. GEO. F. CRABB. 



DAHLIAS. 



Mr. E. Haentze. Fond du Lac. Wis., 

 sends us quite an assortment of dahlia 

 blooms, including many e.xcellent vari- 

 eties. They include Deutsche Reichs- 

 riesen, a good keeping large yellow; 

 Red Jacket, a good red; Triumph, yel- 

 low; Zulu, large dark crimson; Ernest 

 Herger, small red; Beethoven, salmon; 

 Edler Mohr, almost black; Gen. Da- 

 voust, rose color; Negerfuerst, very 

 dark maroon; Der Kleine Goldband- 

 oren, a mixture of red and yellow; 

 Katherine Soupert, small red; Mile. 

 Zehler, yellow tipped red; Dolly Keith, 

 small white with yellow border; 

 Schwarzer Teufel, small very dark 

 crimson; John Bennett, dull old gold; 

 Centifolia, fine double pink (good 

 keeper); Mas Deegen, small white; 

 Kattan, large dark striped; Anna Pon- 

 dorf, small yellow; and others. It was 

 certainly a very interesting collection. 



RIVERTON, N. J. 



The latest member of the Dreer es- 

 tablishment to embark upon the sea 

 of matrimony is the genial Jas. Kairns. 

 May the happy couple's path be as 

 calm as a midsummer swell. W. M. 



JADOO. 



A silver medal was awarded Jadoo at 

 the great wine exhibition at Vienna, 

 and Baron Rothschilds has ordered 

 four tons of the fibre for his gardens 

 in that city.
