The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



FEBRUARY 17, 1898. 



CHARLESTON, S. C. 



This city is one of the lieys to the 

 so-called sea islands, where a vast 

 quantity of truck is raised chiefly for 

 the New Vorlc market. The quantity 

 of seed sown is enormous. In conver- 

 sation with Mr. Mcintosh, a member 

 of the firm of W. Mcintosh & Sons. I 

 was informed that his firm alone has 

 (his season handled one thousand 

 bushels of peas, in addition to vast 

 quantities of beans, etc., one cotton 

 planter planting l.SO bushels. The peas 

 are sown after the crop of cotton is ta- 

 ken off, the cotton stalks acting as 

 support for the haulm. After the pea 

 ciop is gathered the whole is ploughed 

 under for manure. The varieties First 

 and Best. Extra Early and Alaska aie 

 most popular. The usual time for a 

 crop is sixty days. 



Owing to the mildness of the cli- 

 mate the florist cannot depend alone 

 upon the legitimate, so is either a job- 

 ber, seedsman or undertaker, all of 

 which harmonize. W. M.
