The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



MARCH 31, 1.S98. 



Bostoniensis of which he has about six 

 houses planted for later sales. 



P. L. Foster has a big stock of the 

 Boston fern which is as much in favor 

 as ever. 



Warren Ewell is usually approach- 

 able but has no time just now for in- 

 terviewers. The enormous quantities 

 of bulbous stock demand his close at- 

 tention and 'tis going well judging by 

 his complacent smile. "Just tell them 

 that you saw them" and how they look. 

 I think there will be enough to go 

 around. 



James Quinn must be included 

 among the bulb growers. He forces 

 a large number for his own retail 

 trade. With a record of not yet hav- 

 ing wasted a flower, and prospects of 

 a splendid lot for Easter, he is well 

 pleased with the situation. 



F. E. Palmer has a strike with an 

 all-round well-grown Easter stock 

 and a heavy rose crop in view. 



I met Mr. Nicholson, from near-by 

 Framingbam. He tells me he will 

 have a heavy cut of carnations at 

 Easter. His stock needs no introduc- 

 tion here. 



Miss Vass maintains the excellent 

 reputation of her establishment. She 

 has a well-grown stock, which we ex- 

 pect to see depleted around and about 

 the 10th. 



Alex Montgomery will cut enormous 

 cuts of roses from the Waban houses. 

 Other growers will also be in excellent 

 trim, so that there will be no lack of 

 supply. 



The stores already have an Easter 

 appearance. Galvin's is ornate with 

 conservatory filled with the choicest 

 stock. Doyle's windows are very at- 

 tractive, a handsome specimen of Ci- 

 botium Schiedei standing in center; its 

 far-reaching, most graceful fronds, 

 spreading over the flowers arranged be- 

 neath, have a charming effect. Hough- 

 ton & Clark, Delay and Grimmer vie 

 with each other in producing effect. 

 Norton Bros, make an attractive dis- 

 play. Jas. Rough and C. R. Dane are 

 right in line at their uptown stores. 



At the Public Gardens, Mr. Doogue 

 will give an Easter display, which 

 should help boom the business. Among 

 the small (?) items for use in adorn- 

 ing the gardens this season are 25,000 

 hydrangeas and 15,000 hybrid roses.

Simplicity in Greenhouse Construction. 



During our long experience we have not only made many improve- 

 ments in greenhouses, but we have so simplified the construction that 

 building a greenhouse is no longer a matter so full of complications as 

 to tax the patience and the ingenuity of even the most intelligent 

 mechanic. Our 



Clear Cypress Building Material 



is worked out in the best manner ready to be put up, and we furnish our 

 customers such complete detail drawings that any workman of only ordi- 

 nary capabilities can put it up correctly.
