The Florists' Review 



JCNB 12. 1919. 



Mums and Poinsettias 



Our list of Chrysanthemums is composed of the best commer- 



* cial sorts. We will have a fine lot of young plants established 



in pots, ready to ship at benching time. $40.00 per thousand. 



Last year we declined orders for as many Poinsettia Plants as 

 we delivered. We have trebled our propagating stock this year. 

 So come along with your orders. We root them as readily 

 as Coleus. $8.00 per hundred; $75.00 per thousand. 



Have you placed your order for our new Carnation, Ruth Baiir* for 1920 delivery? 

 Write us, too, for field-grown plants of standard varieties to bench this summer.

Olub Meeting. 



The monthly meeting of the Holyoke 

 and Northampton Florists' and Gar- 

 deners' Club was held June 3, with 

 George Strugnel, head gardener at 

 "Bonny Briar," Holyoke. 



The president, Harold Keyes, was in 

 the chair. The members voted to omit 

 the July and August meetings. The re- 

 sult of many years of skillful and hard 

 work at "Bonny Briar" by George 

 Strugnel was enjoyed immensely by the 

 members present, A. H.

Record Frost. 



May 31 and June 1 will long be re- 

 membered by local florists, for on those 

 days we had the latest frost ever ex- 

 perienced in this locality. Coleus, 

 salvia and heliotrope were completely 

 frozen. Cannas, geraniums and other 

 bedding plants lost top leaves, but are 

 growing out again. Dahlias for the 

 most part were not up out of the ground, 

 but those that were up were frozen. 

 Peonies were not hurt. The practice of 

 planting carnations outdoors is not In- 

 dulged in here, which in this case was 

 pure luck for the grower, as there is a 

 shortage of carnation plants now. 



Various Notes. 



Sam Lundy is still at Mercy hospital, 

 where he was taken May 4 to undergo 

 a major operation. His many friends 

 will be delighted to know that he is 

 able to sit up now and is feeling much 

 better. 



Florists who were in the army are 

 rapidly returning from overseas and for 

 the most part are taking their old posi- 

 tions. R. C. Nesbitt and Lyle Stone 

 are again at the Crown Hill Green- 

 houses. Charles Willmore has resumed 

 his work, assisting his father at the 

 dahlia farm. C. Dunsmore, Waldo Kerl 

 and Mr. Western have also returned to 

 Denver. 



Holly Zaleman has bought the Colum- 

 bine Greenhouses, at 1901 South Logan,
