acres covered with glass and lath. The 

 big rose houses are fine, excellent Bussell 

 being in full crop. Interesting, too, was 

 a breadth of Prima Donna, with such 

 marvelous flowers in November that the 

 writer did not recognize this well known 

 variety. The dwarf form of pomegran- 

 ate is beautifully in flower now and Mr. 

 Wilcox regrets that it cannot be held 

 for Christmas. It surely would make a 

 wonderful Christmas plant. While there 

 has been some trouble with yellows in 

 the heather, there will still be a wonder- 

 ful crop of melanthera here, many of 

 the plants being seven feet in height, 

 with buds set from top to bottom. 

 Acres of boxwood, Cocos plumosa, 

 eugenia and other nursery stock are 

 coming in fine shape and the whole 

 place shows the effect of good manage- 

 ment and well considered improve- 

 ments. 



The E. C. Amling Co. continues to 

 receive daily shipments of fine valley 

 from its greenhouses at Ocean Park 

 Heights. 



F. H. Hensley, of Knightstown, Ind., 

 visited the wholesalers last week. Mr. 

 Hensley has sold his Indianapolis store 

 and is now located at Long Beach. 



At the ofBce of S. Murata & Co., a new 

 statement machine, electrically driven, 

 has been installed, making for consider- 

 able time saving. Business was reported 

 exceptionally good before All Saints' 

 day, but fell off a little early this week. 



W. Armacost & Co. report a heavy 

 shipping week. 



The California Floral Co. reports big 

 business. This company is noted for its 

 shipping. 



George Hall, of George Hall & Co., 

 says business has been a little slow, but 

 is picking up. 



Although boycotted by the Japanese 

 growers — for a day — Tom Wright is still 

 in business at the old stand. 



Oscar Schneider, of Purdie & Co., says 

 business is keeping up well and that 

 there is enough funeral work to clean 

 up all stock. 



H. Graham is now with the Alexandria 

 Florist and T. Shewbrook has joined the 

 force at Wright's Flower Shop.
