The Weekly Florists' Review, 



March 24, 1904. 



ETNA, THE RED ROSE. 



There was a little christening down at 

 Bichmoud the other day when E. G. Hill 

 returned from his recent trip among the 

 growers, and the new red rose which is 

 hojied will prove to be the forcing rose 

 .of the future is no longer nameless. They 

 call it Etna. Etna is the tallest vol- 

 cano in Eur'ope and its red fires illum- 

 ine the pages of history away back into 

 the legends of Greek mythology. It is 

 not vouchsafed who is responsible for the 

 .choice of the cognomenal appellation 

 but it is pointed out that the rose is 

 the hue of the conflagration, that com- 

 -mereially it is expected to tower above 

 Meteor, Liberty and all other competi- 

 tors in its class and maintain its exalted 

 position until the present day shall be 

 in the far horizon of floricultural re- 

 trospect. It is planned to distribute it 

 ■next yeaiT. 



VENTILATION FOR ORCHIDS. 



Whenever the outside conditions are 

 ■favorable, no opportunity should be lost 

 for giving ample ventilation. In years 

 past I have been an advocate of the free 

 use of the roof ventilators, says a writer 

 in the Gardeners' Magazine, but expe- 

 rience has taught me that the conditions 

 suitable for successful cultivation of or- 

 .chids can be maintained without their 

 use, even in the hottest days of summer. 

 The use of the roof ventilators permits 

 the humid atmosphere to escape, and 

 yet this is the life of the plants. In 

 winter especially, in exposed positions 

 like our own, the use of roof ventilators 

 would 'be little short of the -nilful de- 

 struction of our plants. Designers of 

 horticultural buildings have paid far too 

 much attention to roof ventilation in the 

 past, and even now we often see com- 

 paratively new erections without ventila- 

 tors in the vicinity of the hot-water 

 pipes. I hope to see in the near futvu'O 

 even the side lights dispensed ■(vith, and 

 a substantial brick wall taking their 

 place. The saving in fire heat alone, 

 apart from the possible fluctuations of 

 temperature, is sufficient recommenda- 

 tion in itself to establish the advantages 

 obtained from the more substantial 

 buildings.
