Among the Growers. 



It has boen sovi-ral j-eais since I 

 visited llie Mendcnhall greenhouses in 

 Minneapolis, but I found little trouble 

 in locating them on First avenue and 

 Eighteenth street. A vear ago last 

 August hail did $0,000 worth of 

 damage here to buildings alone, be- 

 sides inculf'ulable damage to stock, but 

 everything has been rebuilt, and save the 

 absence of some fine specimen palms 

 and ferns the place looks as it did a 

 half dozen years ago. Kobt. Tomlin is 

 in charge and conducted me thi'ough the 

 large range. In roses some old time 

 and useful varieties were met. Like the 

 proprietor, they are growing old and 

 being old friends together they are not 

 discarded. Belle Siebrecht, which was 

 •so vigorously "marched up the hill and 

 then marched down again" several years 

 since, smiles sweetly here. It is a most 

 beautiful variety, but like its reputa- 

 tion does not last. Mine. Hoste and 

 Tlie Queen are also grown for funeral 

 and design work. For these purposes 

 they are very desirable. In the palm 

 section a fine lot of young Kentia Bel- 

 moreana, grown from seed, was noted, 

 also some fine Cycas revoluta grown 

 from stems procured last season. One 

 house was well filled with Boston ferns 

 in prime condition. A few specimen 

 plants of Nephrolepis Wittboldii were 

 also seen, showing tlieir great value 

 for decorative purposes. 



Everything in the line of plants and 

 flowers is grown at this mammoth estab- 

 lishment. Another range of 22 houses 

 is located on the outskirts of the city 

 and will be described in a future letter.
