 hibits, showing a miscellaneous lot 

 of finely grown greenhouse plants. 

 Some of the finest Schizanthus speci- 

 mens ever seen in the hall are being 

 shown by Edwin S. Webster and Mrs. 

 C. G. Weld. 



Several of the retail florists have at- 

 tractive tables. As usual that of Henry 

 Penn is characterized by extreme good 

 taste. Houghton & Glorney feature a 

 lovely bride's bouquet made up of 

 white Camellias, Freesias and Swain- 

 sonas. The table of John Eiseman, 

 the Beacon Florist, aroused particular 

 interest because of the novel character 

 of the exhibit. A leading feature con- 

 sists of large gold frames in the center 

 of which appeared artistically designed 

 flower groups. The flower stems rest 

 in water, although of course the re- 

 ceptacles are hidden. This plan offers 

 opportunity for unusual effects in flow- 

 er decoration. Tiny flower sprays 

 gummed to small pictures form an- 

 other interesting novelty. 



AH in all, the big show is character- 

 ized by a very high quality of exhibits 

 in every class, making it notable in 

 more than one way. 



Two gold medals were awarded the 

 Burrage exhibit and two gold medals 

 to the Arnold Arboretum for azaleas 

 from Japan. A gold medal was also 

 awarded to Julius Roehrs' exhibit of 

 orchids. A silver medal was given 

 Henry Penn and Houghton-Gorney and 

 a bronze medal to the Beacon Florist 

 and Henry Comley.
