The Florists' Review 



Mabch 8. 1917. 



western trade in the interests of the 

 W. W. Barnard Co., of Chicago. He 

 had visited southern California before 

 reaching San Francisco. He formerly 

 made this territory regularly every year 

 and has many friends here, but this is 

 his first visit in six years. Being a 

 great S. F. booster, he is assured a warm 

 welcome. 



Frank Pelicano is bringing in some 

 fine flowering plants in basket sizes, his 

 cyclamens and primroses being particu- 

 larly fine. 



T. Mosco says flowering plants are 

 having a splendid call at his store, espe- 

 cially tulips, hyacinths and azaleas. 



K. T. Brown,' of Queens, N. Y., passed 

 through San Francisco a few days ago, 

 en route to Eureka, Cal. 



Domoto Bros, are having great success 

 with flowering plants this season. 

 Every morning they put in a big display 

 at their rooms on Bush street, and by 

 night it is cleared out. Splendid speci- 

 mens of Azaleas Hinodegiri and Yodo- 

 gawa were' noted the other day. Easter 

 lilies, rhododendrons and magnolias fig- 

 ure prominently in the daily plant oCer- 

 ings. Mr. Domoto considers prospects 

 for Easter promising, conditions being 

 favorable for an ample stock of fine 

 qualitv. 



Manager Shellgrain, of J. B. Boland's 

 store, says funeral work has been the 

 principal item of late, although counter 

 trade holds up fairly well. 



Two students of the University of 

 California the other night paid the pen- 

 alty for their exuberant spirits, which 

 led them to remove a hanging fern from 

 in front of a store in Alameda. Plead- 

 ing guilty to the charge of malicious 

 mischief,' they were sentenced to pub- 

 licly restore the property to the origi- 

 nal' place. While amused spectators 

 looked on, the students carried the plant 

 back to the store. 



A report from Yreka, Cal., says that 

 Anderson Bros., of Alpine, Mich., will 

 plant a large acreage for seed farming 

 in the vicinity of Granada. Peas, beans 

 and all kinds" of garden seeds, it is said, 

 will be grown for the market, and later 

 a large acreage will be devoted to alfalfa 

 seed. 



The Woodside Nursery Co. has filed 

 articles of incorporation, with a capital 

 stock of $10,000. The incorporators are 

 S. Enonioto, J. J. Graves. W. C. Graves, 

 E. A. Fotheringhani and G. G. Biro. 



S. H.-G 



Wenatchee, Wash.— William E. Mills, 

 WilliaTu Peters and L. T. Milot have in- 

 corporated the Milot-Mills Co. The au- 

 thorized capital stock is $30,000. 



San Rafael, Cal. — The California Dah- 

 lia Society, of which Newell F. Vander- 

 bilt, of this city, is secretary, has re- 

 cently issued its second bulletin. The 

 society is composed of amateur and pro- 

 fessional gardeners as well as members 

 of the trade. It was organized in San 

 Francisco last July and is making a vig- 

 orous growth. 



Sawtelle, Cal. — Walter Armacost, 

 whose establishment here always is a 

 point of interest for trade visitors be- 

 cause of its 100,000 square feet of glass 

 devoted to roses and the large area in 

 asparagus, recently was visited by E. C. 

 Amling and H. N. Bruns, of Chicago, 

 who have been vacationing at Orange, 

 Cal. Mr. Armacost guided the party 

 into the mountains with a camping out- 

 fit one afternoon and cooked an open- 

 air dinner, one of the kind for which he 

 has more than a local reputation.

TOPPING HARDY PEEENNIALS. 



Of the following, state which, if any, 

 should be topped in coniniorcial growing: 

 Aehilleas, aquilegias, coreopsis. Cam 

 jianula Medium, physostegias, stokesias 

 Also, give instructions for planting and 

 temperature for geums and statices. I 

 liave made a complete failure of both of 

 those. E. N. T.— 111. 



None of the perennials named sliould 

 be topped, or you will get few flowers 

 from them; in fact, there are- few hardy 

 herbaceous perennials which ever need 

 topping. 



Geums, such as coccineum and that 

 fine form Mrs. Bradshaw, and statices, 

 such as latifolia, can be started from 

 seeds now in an ordinary greenhouse. 

 They are comparatively easy of germina- 

 tion. You can also sow in a coldframe in 

 summer. By watering carefully and 

 giving some shade from bright sun you 

 will get a better and quicker germina- 

 tion. All the perennials named should 

 prove hardy in your latitude. C. W. 



Beno, Nev. — W. J. Doering has taken 

 over the Stoddard greenhouses and will 

 operate them in connection with his 

 nurserv business.
