The Weekly Florists' Review. 



APRIL 12, WOO. 



OCEANIC, N. J. 



A very well attended meeting of the 

 Mo'imouth County Horticultural So- 

 ciety was held in Redmen's Hall, 

 Oceanic, N. J., President Hettel iu the 

 chair. 



Fred Nielsen was nominated and 

 Mrs. V. A. Segier elected for member- 

 ship. 



Dr. W. S. Wittmore, De Witt Will- 

 iams and N. Butterback were appoint- 

 ed to have the society incorporated at 

 once. 



The treasurer was instructed to take 

 some stock in the St.-ite Mutual Build- 

 ing and Loan Association. 



Dr. Wittmore delivered one of his 

 great speeches, and here it can be said 

 that this society is very fortunate to 

 have as meinliers such men as Dr. 

 Wittmore, Rev. Dr. Kneipe, Professor 

 Walling. De Witt Williams, and many 

 others. There is never any lack of en- 

 tertaining and instructive matters. The 

 president read a paper on adiantum 

 culture, which was very instructive 

 and listened to wim great interest. 



Premium schedules for the grand 

 horticultural exhibition of the S. A. F. 

 convention were distributed to the 

 members. B. 



WASHINGTON. 



The boys all around are busy mov- 

 ing blooming plants around and trying 

 to make, ends meet. Lilies seem plen- 

 tiful, and from all indications bulbous 

 stock will be a glut. Several of our 

 largest growers will almost entirely 

 quit growing Dutch bulbs. Roses as 

 well as blooming plants will be plenti- 

 ful. 



A. Gude & Bro. are cutting some ex- 

 tra tine Beauties, the finest ever grown 

 in this section, the stems averaging 

 from 4 to 6 feet. 



The average quotations for Easter 

 will be: Teas, 12% to 15 cents; carna- 

 tions, 3 to 4 cents: Beauties, 50 cents 

 to $1; Easter and calla lilies, 12% 

 cents, cut or in pots: tulips, 2 to 3 

 cents; jonquils, single 50 cents per 

 100, doubles 3 cents; mignonette, 3 to 

 4 cents; smilax, 20 cents. 



Prospects for a good Easter trade 

 seem to be better than ever. 



P. W. O. Schmitz, of .Jersey City, N. 

 J., was among the callers this week. 

 F. H. KRAMER. 



WAUSAU, WIS.— M. Philipps reports 

 that trade has been booming in his 

 part of the country and that the pros- 

 pects are good for a big Easter trade. 



PLATTSMOUTH, NEB.— The wife of 

 W. J. Hesser, the florist, died April 1, 

 after a ten weeks' illness. Mr. Hesser 

 has the sympathy of all in the loss of 

 one who had been a loving companion 

 for over forty-six years. 



CAMBRIDGE, MASS.— Jas. M. Tuohy 

 has opened a fiorisfs store at 1154 

 Cambridge street. 



SIUVCR-SWCDT VIME. 



(Actinidia poly^ama.) TBTTE. 



The foliage on the ' 

 the flowering shoots is of a silvery white co- 

 lor, giving the whole vine from a little distance 

 the appearance of being covered with large white 

 flowers blooming among its bright green leaves. 

 The effect is very marked and beautiful. The flowers, which 

 appear in this latitude about the middle of June, lasting from 

 two to three weeks, are creamy white in color with numerous 

 stamens with bright yellow anthers, and resembles the lily of the valley in fragrance. 

 Offered in two sizes, $1.50 and SI. 00. Send for circular.
