A SPRING VALLEY PLACE. 



So far as we know, A. S. Burns of 

 Spring Valley, N. Y., is the largest 

 forcer of longiflorum lilies in this 

 country. He was certainly one of the 

 first, if not the first, to make a regu- 

 lar business of supplying this flower 

 in quantity every day in the year. 

 Horse Shoe Brand Giganteum are his 

 specialty and house after house in all 

 stages of growth and maturity may 

 be seen any day in this well-conducted 

 place. Mr. Burns is the son of Alex- 

 ander S. Burns of Woodside, N. Y., 

 one of the most successful of the older 

 generation of florists and whose wise 

 training and advice, no doubt, counts 

 for much in the success achieved by 

 the younger Alex. 



There are fifteen houses in the 

 range now — four of them covering 

 an area of 140 x 140 having been 

 erected this season. The capacity of 

 this new addition is 75,000 lily bulbs. 

 At the present time the regular cut 

 per day is 3000 flowers. In addition 

 to the giganteums Mr. Burns forces 

 large quantities of auratum and speci- 

 osum. Of the latter rubrum is seen in 

 greatest quantity. Mr. Burns says 

 that he is unable to distinguish be- 

 tween a good brand of rubrum and 

 those sold as rnagnifieum, the former 

 varying so much in type and color 

 thai it is not worth while to try to 

 carry the two names. In the field at 

 the present time is a vast stretch of 

 Vick asters, remarkable as to stem 

 and size of flower, when the unfavor- 

 able season is taken into considera- 

 tion. The same cultural skill and dili- 

 gent care is as apparent here as in 

 the houses. This establishment prom- 

 ises to be eventually one of the fore- 

 most in the country. 



Do You Know What 

 You Want ? 



Look in the " Buyers' 

 Directory" of this issue 

 and you will probably 

 find represented there 

 somebody who can 

 supply you. It's a good 

 plan to look it over 

 every week, for the 

 weekly changes and 

 additions are many.
