for twelve sprays anemone-flowered. 

 Eric H. Wetterlow had — not for compe- 

 tition — some grand vases of specimen 

 blooms. A. B. Jenkins had the best ar- 

 rangement of chrysanthemums, showing 

 how they could be utilized in the home. 

 S. J. Qoddard had some fine vases of 

 Bichmond and Charles Eager. Mr. Gk>d- 

 dard showed a handsome vase of Carna- 

 tion Laddie, which received first for 

 pink. C. S. Strout showed Maine Sun- 

 shine in grand condition and received 

 a silver medal. 



There was a wonderful display of win- 

 ter-flowering begonias of the English 

 type and they surpassed chrysanthe- 

 mums in popular favor. A magnificent 

 display covering several hundred square 

 feet of spac€ came from James Marl- 

 borough, superintendent for Thomas E. 

 Proctor. Over forty varieties were 

 shown and many of these were speci- 

 mens three to four feet across. The fol- 

 lowing were especially fine: Fascina- 

 tion, Sunrise, Altrineham Pink, Em- 

 press, Splendor, Ideala, Optima, Eclipse, 

 Vulcan, Eose Queen, Dazzler, Emily 

 Clibran, one of the best; Rosalind, Pink 

 Perfection, Apricot, Mrs. Heal and 

 Flambeau. This group was charmingly 

 arranged and well merited the gold 

 medal awarded. 



For six specimen begonias Mr. Marl- 

 borough showed immense plants heavily 

 flowered of Clibran Pink, Emily Cli- 

 bran, Eclipse and Sunrise. Peter Ar- 

 nott, gardener for E. S. Webster, was a 

 close second, showing fine plants of 

 Optima, Mrs. Heal, Emily Clibran and 

 Exquisite. Eric H. Wetterlow won first 

 for six begonias of the pink American 

 commercial type with large well flow- 

 ered specimens of Cincinnati. 



Douglas Eccleston, gardener for Al- 

 bert C. Burrage, staged a large group 

 of choice cypripediums in forty varie- 

 ties. Being terrestrial orchids, they 

 were appropriately plunged and the 

 group, which was of semicircular for- 

 mation, went to a considerable height 

 and was capped with large cibotiums. 

 Below were numerous well flowered 

 specimens of Cymbidium Pawelsii and 

 masses of such oncidiums as Forbesii 

 crispum and Kramerianum, and below 

 them were cypripedium plants, 200 in 

 number. Tufa stone was effectually 

 used among them, also lycopodium 

 and other trailing plants. There 

 were numerous plants of C. insigne San- 

 dersB, Ilarefield Hall, Drcadnaught, 

 Maudise, magnificum, Leeanum, virgi- 

 nale and other choice varieties. A few 

 other good varieties were Lord Wolmer, 

 Lord Wolscley, Fran Ida Brandt, tri- 

 umphans and Actapus. A gold medal
