The Florists' Review 



77 



It's Awful Easy to Sell Goods 



WHEN 



\ You grow them right, pack them properly, ship them promptly and treat your customers right. 



We never advertise till we have something to SELL, and buyers know it will be good enough 

 for the most stubborn soils, and sure to please their most exacting customers. 



Sure, it pays to advertise when you can sell 2-year Phlox like ours at $5.00 per 100; Potted. 

 Evergreens, 5 to 7 inches high and good, at $4.00 and up per 100. The kinds that GROW and 

 never bring back a GROWL, All kinds of Privets, Shrubs, Perennials and Fruit Trees of every 

 variety and by the thousands, and offered at equally attractive prices. The public buys what- 

 ever we advertise, because it knows that we and our goods can be relied upon. Our goods 

 produce pleasing results, not disappointments.

selected wild bushes or by the growing 

 of chance seedlings, neither of these 

 courses is advocated, because neither 

 would result in the production of fruit 

 of an especially superior quality. Seed- 

 ling plants, even from the largest ber- 

 ried wild parents, produce small berries 

 as often as large ones. Until nursery- 

 men are prepared to furnish plants 

 asexuaUy propagated from superior 

 stocks, the cultivator should begin by 

 the transplanting of the . best wild 

 bushes, selected when in fruit for the 

 size, color, flavTar, and earliness of the 

 berry and the vigor and productiveness 

 of the bush. These he should propagate 

 by layering and by cuttings until his 

 plantation is completed. Through a 

 combination of these methods, a valu- 

 able old plant can be multiplied by

 Vincent, Jr., met the party at a point 

 on the Belair road and guided us to his

 when we entered the potting shed and 

 found large tables, prettily decorated, 

 spread with a fine Maryland dinner.
