The Weekly Florists^ Review, 



DecemBek ft, 1897. 



SCARBOROUGH, N. Y. 



A hurried visit to the rose growing 

 establishment of F. R. & P. M. Pierson 

 revealed the roses growing there in excel- 

 lent condition, three 300-foot houses of 

 Meteors and four 300-foot houses of 

 Beauties fully sustained the reputation of 

 these growers. They contemplate erect- 

 ing two even-span houses, north and 

 south, the same length as above, during 

 the coming spring. Several benches of A. 

 cuneatum, in small houses running paral- 

 lel to the rose houses, and on the north 

 side, showed a wealth of fronds, and sell 

 fairly well at seventy-five cents to f i.oo 

 per 100. 



Mr. J. Henshaw, the genial foreman, 

 said that next year it was quite pos,sible 

 they might run the whole lot of rose 

 houses in Beauties, "not that they loved 

 Rome less, but Ciesar more," but because 

 their success with Beauties was unprece- 

 dented, and the demand for this favorite 

 was always good. B. 



HORNELLSVILLE, N. Y. 



W. A.Wettlin reports a good season. His 

 grower, Jas. Powers, has a pretty lot of 

 cinerarias and primulas for the holidays. 

 These will sell at sight, being well grown 

 stock. W. M.
