Mr. Tabor lays the success of the Lon- 

 don Flower Shop to Mrs. Drew Bear 's 

 ability and to the maintenance of high 

 credit by keeping their capital, small 

 at first, as a reserve, and modestly 

 takes no credit to himself for his share 

 in the achievement. 



Various Notes. 



Walter Mott, of Beacon, N. Y., 

 whose Musings have made his name a 

 household word among florists, was 

 here recently. Mr. Mott has the happy 

 laugh of a boy. 



Mrs. Drew Bear 's name heads the 

 list of judges for the coming Lans- 

 downe flower show, June 9. 



A. M. Lawson says the Darwin tulip 

 retards geranium planting. It is hard 

 to find anything showier than the Dar- 

 win tulip. 



J. D. Eisele says that at no time 

 have plant orders fallen more tlian a 

 day or two behind at Riverton this 

 year. A fine record, considering the 

 rush at Dreer 's. 



J. J. Styer, of Concordvillc, Pa., was 

 successful in getting some of his 

 peonies in time. 



The Normandie Greenhouses, of 

 Gwynedd Valley, Pa., marketed 100,- 

 000 choice ferns during April. 



Henry C. Heileman has returned to 

 the city. 



Henry F. Michell will be an im- 

 portant figure at tlie Lansdowiie flower 

 show, June 9. 



Mrs. Herzberg, grandmother of Ray- 

 mond Brunswick, survived her husband 

 only a little over a month. Mr. and 

 Mrs. Herzberg celebrated their golden 

 wedding some time ago. 



D. Fuerstenberg considers September 

 Morn a most promising rose. 



Prof. J. Horace McFarland, of Har- 

 risburg. Pa., will deliver an illustrated 

 lecture on "Some Tendencies in Mod- 

 ern Rose Growing" at the Twentieth 

 Century clubhouse in Lansdowne, at 8 

 p. m., June 8. 



Sydney H. Bayersdorfer says the 

 sale of red, wliite and blue baskets 

 has run into surprisingly big figures. 

 Mr. Bayersdorfer received a single tele- 

 graphic order for 1,000 of these baskets.

 pandanus, crotons and draccTnas in the

 end was full of hope. A general de- 

 mand from the retailers absorbed much 

 of the surplus and left the market in 

 good condition for the early days of 

 the present week. Prices were better 

 for all the staples, cspoeially for roses 

 and carnations, and lilies, always in
