The Florists' Review 



Mabch 24. 1921. 



The Hiilesmen at the Flower Exchange 

 made up a handsome hamper contain- 

 ing fruits, flowers, chickens, eggs, etc., 

 March 18, and sent it per Albert 

 Strumpf and Harry Ward to F. J. Mc- 

 Namara, salesman for the Montrose 

 Greenhouses, who had just reached his 

 home after an operation for appendi- 

 citis at the Homeopathic hospital. 



William Miller, of Lynn, who is a 

 great globe-trotter and mountaineer, 

 returned March 19 from a six weeks' 

 visit to Porto Rico with his daughter. 

 There are few parts of the world 's sur- 

 face which Mr. Miller has not ex- 

 plored. 



William H. Elliott & Sons are so well 

 pleased with Eose Mme. Butterfly that 

 they will plant 16,000 of it at their 

 Madbury, N. H., establishment next 

 season. Ophelia is largely grown and 

 succeeds well and Mme. Butterfly grows 

 ■well and sells on sight. George T. 

 Elliott says that the first cut of 

 Kaiserin was made at Brighton 

 April 21. 



Owing to April 19, the regular date 

 of the next club meeting, falling on a 

 holiday, the meeting will be held April 

 20. B. F. Letson, manager for Car- 

 bone 's, Inc., and president of the Bos-

 on "Floral Arrangement" and give 

 practical demonstrations.

 already been made for the Boston 

 spring show, which will open April 6.

 displays of orchids and other season- 

 able plants and flowers. There will be 

 lectures on roses during each day of the 

 •exhibition. Meetings of the American 

 Koae Society, American Orchid Society 

 and National Association of Gardeners 

 -will take place during the show. 



E. D. Kaulback is building a large 

 and up-to-date garage at Maiden, 15<»x- 

 200, two stories high, absolutely fire- 

 proof, to accommodate 400 cars. 



The New York flower show attracted 

 a, large attendance from here, and all 

 agree in pronouncing it the finest show 

 New York has yet staged. The gardens 

 proved potent attractions. 



The Boston Sunday Herald of March 

 20 contained a full page "Say It with 

 Flowers" advertisement, advocating 

 the purchasing of Easter flowers, con- 

 tributed by leading wholesalers, retail- 

 ers, growers and sundries men of Bos- 

 ton and vicinity.

 Hannan & Son.

 flowers at Horticultural hall March 19. 

 April 30 there will be a free illustrated 

 lecture on the Arnold Arboretum, by 

 Loring W. Underwood. 



Seed stores are now exceptionally 

 busy and having all they can do to 

 keep abreast of orders. Local nurseries 

 are busy shipping and planting trees, 

 shrubs and hardy perennials. Not for 

 3'ears has the ground opened at so early 

 a date and there was never less winter- 

 killing. Local landscape firms arc all 

 getting quite busy, also. 



March temperature records have 

 shown remarkable variations. March 

 18 the ninximnm was 37 degrees. March 

 20 the temperature was 80 degrees, the
