The Florists^ Review 



Junk 19, 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 Baur« for 1920 delivery? 

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



BAUR & STEINKANP 



3800 Rockwood Ave. 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



light and dark pink, and red, early, mid- 

 season and late, three or four varieties 

 have been selected, perhaps three dozen 

 in all, to be grown in quantity. There 

 may still be a few plants of discarded 

 sorts for con}parison and the average 

 visitor unhesitatingly endorses Mr. Pe- 

 terson 's choice. There also are some of 

 the so-called novelties for trial. Lady 

 Alexandra Duflf, Jubilee, the Brand seed- 

 lings, etc.; Mr. Peterson thinks well of 

 the Brand varieties as a class and has 

 put several of them into his select list, 

 Richardson and Rosenfield being the 

 only other American seedling raisers 

 whose productions have earned a place 

 on this roll of honor. Karl Rosenfield is 

 a leader among the reds. But, speaking 

 of reds, there is at Peterson's a big 

 block of Felix Crousse that was a flam- 

 ing contradiction of the rather frequent 

 assertion that it is a shy bloomer. Mr. 

 Peterson calls it absolutely the best red 

 in existence. The selected varieties are 

 grown by the acre and quantities of 

 blooms are cut, as ma^xy as 20,000 in one 

 day last week, to be sold on commission 

 by the A. L. Randall Co., in Chicago, but 

 the cutters leave the first ten feet of 

 each row, so that there is a brilliant 

 display for the visitors passing down 

 the drive across the field. There also is 

 a demonstration garden, consisting of 

 three plants of each variety, in rows, the 

 rows side by side, beginning with the 

 earliest white and ending with the 

 latest red. It affords sharper compari- 

 son than in the field. 



Mr. Peterson was at Detroit June 17, 

 at the meeting of the American Peony 

 Society. He did not take any flowers 

 because he had been asked to be a judge 

 of the exhibits there. 



Aberdeen, S. D. — Easter, Mothers' 

 day and Memorial day business was bet- 

 ter this year then ever before, and B. F. 

 Siebrecht had a big supply of pot plants 

 and cut flowers of all kinds to supply 

 the demand. Memorial day business 

 was a "hummer," and it took Mr. Sie- 

 brecht, his wife and six clerks to get out 

 the orders. Mr. Siebrecht and his 

 grower, Adolph Pitterle, are rolling up 

 their sleeves, getting ready for the ad- 

 ditional greenhouses which will be built 

 this summer.
