way down the stem almost to the pot. 

 Otaheite oranges are going out rapidly 

 now. The flowering plant list closes 

 with another triumph. The ericas are 

 flowered to the very tips of their shoots. 

 This achievement is especially note- 

 worthy in the 3-inch or basket size of 

 heather. To have these well set with 

 buds is good work. 



Progress in crotons is shown by the 

 cutting down of the varieties. Pretty 

 sorts that lose color when making a new 

 growth are being discarded. The sorts 

 that remain are the best of those that 

 hold their color well. 



The dracsenas are showy and fine. 

 Massangeana remains number one. 

 Lord Wolseley is number two, with a 

 number of good kinds following. The 

 dwarf type of the old Boston fern leads 

 the nephrolepis. The specimens were 

 particularly good. Teddy, Jr., with its 

 wavy curl, is a close second in the 

 straight-leaved class, while Norwood 

 and Smithii represent the crested type. 



Faith in Areca lutescens continues to 

 increase, while Pandanus Veitchii is 

 better than ever. The Japanese azalea, 

 Hinodigiri, and a half dozen choice 

 French varieties of hydrangeas are 

 being protected in preparation for an 

 early Easter. 



The Feature of the Shows. 



There have been a number of flower 

 shows held in the suburbs this fall, at 

 Lansdowne, at Narberth, at Merion. 

 There has been one outstanding feature 

 at each, the dahlia. Great as has been 

 the improvement in commercial dahlias, 

 the improvement in the dahlias on the 

 private places has kept pace. Such 

 dahlias as were exhibited at these shows 

 recalled the palmiest days of Frank 

 Hassen. Frank Hassen was a lawyer 

 of Woodbury, N. J., who grew dahlias 

 that made a stir at J. J.' Habermehl's 

 Sons'. The Bellevue-Stratford varieties 

 were unusual, culture was of the best, 

 and these dahlias were really superb. 

 So at the shows the dahlias that have 

 been shown this fall are an inspiration 

 to those who saw them.
