The Florists' Review 



f r 



Bbptbmbbb 18. 1018. 



SYEACUSE, N. Y. 



. The professional exhibits at the 

 state fair here last week were of a 

 high class. Charles H. Vick, of Roch- 

 ester, who is superintendent of the 

 flower exhibits, was greatly pleased 

 with the displays staged. In designs 

 the florists of Rochester and Syracuse 

 were the leaders. The entries for a 

 standing cross, four feet high, were 

 extremely good; Jacob Thomann & 

 Sons, of Rochester, took first place, 

 and E. W. Edwards & Son and Chester 

 Harris, both of Syracuse, captured sec- 

 ond and third places, respectively. E. H. 

 Wilson, of Rochester, entered an unusu- 

 ally fine cross, which was unfortunately 

 above the required height. For the 

 best vase of fifty flowers, Chester Har- 

 ris won first prize; no second prize was 

 awarded. 



The best collections of stove and 

 greenhouse plants, effectively arranged 

 to cover 150 square feet of space, were 

 staged by Syracuse florists, E. W. Ed- 

 wards & Son taking first prize and 

 Hugh Meneilly second. The prizes for 

 the four best pandanus were given to 

 the same two exhibitors in a reverse 

 order, Hugh Meneilly taking first and 



E. W. Edwards & Son second. Good 

 designs were shown for a wreath of 

 flowers on an easel; in this class Jacob 

 Thomann & Sons were first, and Ches- 

 ter Harris and E. W. Edwards & Sou 

 second and third respectively. F. R. 

 Pierson, of Tarrytown, showed the best 

 exhibit of twelve distinct ferns; Hugh 

 Meneilly and Howard Meneilly took 

 second and third places in this class. 



F. R. Pierson also took first place for 

 six distinct ferns, and E. W. Edwards 

 & Son won second and third prizes. 



The Julius Roehrs Co. sent a carload 

 of tropical and other exotic plants, 

 dwarf evergreen and bay trees, which 

 formed a splendid display, but were not 

 in competition. A number of other 

 good displays for exhibition only were 

 sent by Lord & Burnham Co., H. A. 

 Dreer, James Vick's Sons, Arthur 

 Cowee, W. F. Kasting, E. A. Stillman 

 and A. N. Pierson, Inc.
