ing stock. The plants are well ad- 

 vanced; they are now in a cool tempera- 

 ture and highly colored. Trophee is the 

 gem of this collection. There are hun- 

 dreds upon hundreds of them, all superb 

 plants. The lilies are all formosum, 

 showing good culture and well budded. 

 There are really wonderful home-grown 

 Lilac Marie Legraye, some nice astilbes, 

 also home-grown, and some excellent 

 German valley. Narcissus King Alfred 

 is the most striking daffodil. 



Aschmann Bros. 



Aschmann Bros, have a good, big lot 

 of Easter plants in the leading stand- 

 ard varieties. The roses are particu- 

 larly well grown. Among them is Amer- 

 ican Beauty, rarely seen now as an 

 Easter-flowering plant. Magna Charta 

 and Ophelia are also we41 done. The 



quantity of stock in this place is in- 

 creased by a generous use of frames. 



Various Notes. 



A party went from Lancaster county 

 to Chester county March 9. There 

 were three members of the family whose 

 name is linked with the successful cul- 

 ture of the sweet pea this winter. 

 There was Ira B. Landis and James 

 Brown, of Coatesville, and our own 

 Samuel S. Pennock, and I have an un- 

 happy feeling that there was some 

 other distinguished horticulturist. They 

 visited A. Harvey & Son and E. C. 

 Marshall and Richards Bros, and J. 

 Howard Thompson and William Swayne 

 and Percy Barnard (I have not the 

 pleasure of knowing this gentleman, 

 but I have it on the most reliable au- 

 thority that everyone calls him Percy) 



and mayhap some more. They saw 

 many things indoors. Outdoors they 

 saw a forsythia in bloom. 



David B. Grillbortzer, of the Wash- 

 ington Floral Co.. Washington, D. C, 

 was here March 12. 



The arrival of southern daffodils has 

 further demoralized the bulb market. 

 While these flowers are not to be com- 

 pared with greenhouse-grown stock 

 from nearby, they affect prices. South- 

 ern daffodils are quoted at from $2 to 

 $3 per thousand. 



Dr. Herman Burgin spoke before the 

 Germantown Horticultural Society in 

 the library of Vernon park March 14 

 on "Our Botanical Indebtedness to the 

 Far East." 



George Craig celebrated his forty- 

 sixth business anniversary March 17.
