Palms and Foliage Plants. 



Perhaps the palms and foliage plants 

 suffer more than any other class of ex- 

 hibits from the overcrowding of the 

 hall; these specimens and groups need 

 space if their perfection is to stand 

 revealed. W. A. Manda is the princi- 

 pal exhibitor in the commercial classes, 

 but the Kobert Craig Co. is well repre- 

 sented by its crotons, drac«enas, ficus 

 and phoenix. Each of these exhibitors 

 has an excellent group. 



Among the private gardeners who 

 brought their finest palms and foliage 

 plants were J. H. Dodd, E. A. Schmidt, 

 Wm. Bobertson, Wm. Kleinhelnz, 

 Thomas Long and the Bodine estate. 

 From the number and size of the speci- 

 mens it would seem that they must have 

 virtually emptied their conservatories 

 for the occasion and the plants were in 

 all cases perfect examples of the gar- 

 deners' art. 



The awards were:
