CHICAGO NOTES. 



"Hampton Court Garden." 

 Among the fine pieces of landscape 

 gardening this spring will be a Hamp- 

 ton Court Garden at the Armour sum- 

 mer home, Lalie Forest, 111. It will be 

 superintended by Bruce McGregor, 

 whose brother so succes fully pained 

 the same effect at the Wcr:d's Pair, 

 at St. Louis. 



Geraniums. 



The growers of bedding stock, par- 

 ticularly of geraniums have had their 

 special trials this year. The late 

 Easter kept the plants in the back- 

 ground till the warm weather came 

 and all at once the season was upon 

 them and the grower not able to meet 

 an unusually early demand. There 

 are a great quantity of geranium 

 plants at the various greenhouses, but 

 for every plant in bloom there are 

 several not yet showing color. Al- 

 most a month of extreme heat has 

 burned the blooms badly on some 

 plants. Nevertheless, geraniums sell, 

 for there is nothing else so satisfac- 

 tory, but waiting on customers this 

 year is not altogether an unalloyed 

 pleasure. 



Personal. 



George Fisher and Miss Dora Sha- 

 piro will be married at the home of 

 Mr. Fisher's parents, Kalamazoo, 

 Mich., June 6th. The groom is a mem- 

 ber of the firm of H. A. Fisher Co., 

 of Kalamazoo, and Battle Creek, M c'\, 

 and is located in Chicago as purch"s;r 

 tor the house. Mr. and Mrs. Fisher 

 will be at home to their friends, Au- 

 gust 1st at 5007 Forestville av;nue, 

 Chicago, and have the best wishes of 

 the trade. 



Geo. Woodruff is now home from 

 the hospital and is gaining strength 

 daily. 



Mrs. John Zeck, who underwent a 

 severe operation on her foot, is home 

 again and slowly recovering. 



Chas. W. McKellar is back from 

 Hot Springs, Ark., and feels quite him- 

 self again, 



T. Waters is helping Fisher Brrs., 

 of Evanston, through their spring 

 rush. 



Chas. Schneider has again opened 

 a down-town retail stcre, this time 

 at 32 Washington street, on the bank 

 floor. The store has been newly deco- 

 rated and Mr. Schneider has put in a 

 stock of fancy jardinieres and other 

 florists' wares, which he w'U handle 

 with cut flowers, plants, etc. 



H. Philpott arrived in Chicago on 

 Memorial Day to attend the Milwau- 

 kee-Chicago club meeting, Thursday, 

 June 1st. The return cards so far 

 show that a large number of the Chi- 

 cago club members are expecting to 

 attend. Mr. Philpott says the cool 

 weather at Winnipeg has stimulated 

 trade there and that the florists at St.
