The Florists' Review 



35 



two vases of Carnation Belle Wash- 

 burn, which traveled well and stood up 

 several days. 



John Savage, of Gwynedd, Pa., 

 showed vases of a fine silver pink 

 snapdragon. 



Henry A. Dreer, Inc., staged a table 

 of a new fern, described by its name, 

 which is Cyrtomium Eochfordianum 

 compactum. 



F. H. Lemon & Co., Eichmond, Ind., 

 staged an excellent group of Primula 

 malacoides rosea in several sizes, which 

 attracted much attention because of 

 its bright rose-colored flowers. 



The Lectures. 



The lectures in connection with the 

 National Flower Show are proving an 

 even greater success than was expect- 

 ed. There are two series, one for the 

 evenings, the other for the afternoons, 

 arranged by J. Otto Thilow, and the 

 large audiences and the close atten- 

 tion given the speakers indicate the 

 interest gardening topics hold for Phil- 

 adelphians. 



The evening course in full is: 



March 25 — "Home Grounds," Illustrated, by 

 W. N. Rudd, of Morgan Park, 111. 



March 27 — "What Science Has Done for Flori- 

 culture," Illustrated, by Prof. E. A. White, of 

 Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y. 



March 28 — "Roses," Illustrated, by Robert 

 Pyle, of West Grove, Pa.

 under the auspices of the Garden Clubs of 

 America.

 partment of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.

 Wilde, State College, Pa. 



Following the afternoon talks and 

 lectures a moving picture of the Port- 

 land rose carnival is given. 



Of course the lectures are planned 

 for amateurs rather than for the trade 

 visitors, but a goodly representation of 

 the trade is noticed each time. 



Contributors of Prizes.

 have been financed on the present 

 scale, with a premium list representing
