Xhc Florists' Review 



June 15. 191G. 



An invitation was tendered to the 

 members of the society to attend the 

 annual meeting of the Ladies' Auxil- 

 iary, to be held at the home of John 

 Gill, in West Berkeley. Those present 

 were glad to welcome Charles Abraham, 

 who has not been attending the meet- 

 ings for a year or more on account of 

 poor health. He appeared quite hearty. 

 The evening's exhibits were somewhat 

 lacking, the only exhibit being a large 

 pot of Nephrolepis Amerpohlii, by H. 

 Plath, which took ninety-eight points. 



Various Notes! 



The wedding of Miss Tillie V. Peli- 

 cano, daughter of Frank Pelicano, to 

 A. Costa, was one of the pretty church 

 affairs of last week. The happy couple 

 are motoring to San Diego as a honey- 

 moon trip. 



W. D. Fraser, owner of a large seed 

 farm at Seattle, Wash., was a recent 

 visitor. 



The California State Floral Society 

 held a meeting on the afternoon of 

 June 9. Mr. Wilson, of the weather 

 bureau, entertained the members dur- 

 ing the afternoon at his headquarters 

 in the Merchants' Exchange building. 



H. Plath has a large house of Primula 

 obconica in flats about ready for pot- 

 ting. His old stock is about cleaned 

 out. 



Schwerin Bros, are building another 

 house, 26x150 feet, to be devoted to 

 adiantum. 



Appleby & Letts, near Haywards, in 

 Alameda county, are completing two 

 greenhouses, each 18x150 feet, for cycla- 

 mens and flowering plants. 



E. James has a fine lot of celosias 

 coming on, mostly Pride of Castle Gould 

 and some new Scotch varieties just im- 

 ported. He is about cleaned out of hy- 

 drangeas, but says spirreas have sold 

 poorly this spring. He had success 

 with Tausendschon roses this year and 

 still has a few left, although the de- 

 mand is about over now. They lasted 

 unusually well. 



The E. Gill Nursery Co. has an ex- 

 ceptionally fine stand of roses at its 

 Edenvale place in Santa Clara county. 



John Gill and John Vallance plan to 

 go to Medford, Ore., about June 20, to 

 attend the convention of the Pacific 

 Coast Association of Nurserymen. 



Included in the estimates filed by 

 various municipal departments of Ala- 

 meda, Cal., for the next fiscal year was 

 $2,500 for a new greenhouse for Mc- 

 Kinley park. S. H. G.

The Market. 



-Last week was a busy one for the flo- 

 rists. Establishing the floral center and 

 decorating floats for the parades re- 

 quired extra help and used all available 

 stock. A grand lodge convention of the 

 Eastern Star added to the strong de- 

 mand for flowers and many roses were 

 sent to friends during festival week. 



The Bose Show. 



The annual show of the Portland Kose 

 Society was held on the fifth floor of 

 the Meier & Frank department store, 

 June 7 and 8. The lateness of the sea- 

 son caused "ITie quality of the roses to 

 be better than usual, and added to the 

 success of the show. Although a sepa- 

 rate event, the rose show is financed 

 by the festival association. The grand 

 prize for the best flower was awarded
