Plants in Flower. 



The two principal exhibitors of 

 blooming plants were the Robert Craig 

 Co., which had twenty-four entries in 



the show, taking twenty-four premiums, 

 and Thomas Roland, whose acacias were 

 the marvel of the exhibition. The Craig 

 entries were especially meritorious in 

 bougainvilleas, hydrangeas and rhodo- 

 dendrons. Julius Roehrs Co. also had 

 fine rhododendrons. W. A. Manda 

 showed anthuriums, Azalea mollis and 

 a good group. Knight & Struck Co. had 

 a group of small hard-wooded plants 

 arranged for effect and Wm. Sim's 

 pansies had many admirers. 



Among the gardeners' exhibits there 

 were many fine things, not the least of 

 which were Wm. Vert's hybrid amaryl- 

 lises. Wm. Klelnheinz deserves special 

 mention for acacias, large azaleas, 

 forced lilacs, rhododendrons and his 

 group. J. H. Dodd brought excellent 

 anthuriums, gardenias, lilacs, primulas 

 and pansies. Wm. Robertson was the 

 largest exhibitor in these classes and 

 was specially strong with his cyclamens, 

 hydrangeas and rhododendrons, his 

 Pink Pearl being exceptionally well 

 flowered. Other entries that are 

 worthy special comment are David 

 Archer's genistas, W. L. Ellis' primu- 

 las and standard heliotrope, John 

 Gribble's schizanthus, R. Abenerltz 's 

 spiraea, John Dunn's schizanthus and
