mit, and quite a little about colored 

 freesias in particular. Mr. GruUemans 

 was loud in his praises of the great ad- 

 vance made by Mr. Fischer and said un- 

 hesitatingly that the plants were away 

 beyond anything he had seen of their 

 kind in Holland. The colors of these 

 freesias are wonderfully rich and 

 varied, while their size and substance 

 are also wonderful, far surpassing the 

 Italian types that the Ehitch and other 

 growers have been working on. To get 

 an idea of these fine varieties, one has 

 to imagine a house 100 feet or more 

 in length and twelve to fifteen feet 

 wide, just full of the largest freesias 

 in almost every imaginable shade of 

 color. In the mass they present con- 

 vincing evidence of the good work be- 

 ing done here, while the individual 

 flowers are more remarkable still, and 

 this is only the flowering quarters of 

 the selected types. In other houses 

 there are literally acres of fine seed- 

 ling forms awaiting the critical eye of 

 Mr. and Mrs. Fischer, for it should 

 be known that Mrs. Fischer is just as 

 great an enthusiast as her husband. 

 They are not yet quite ready to give 

 these wonderful novelties to the world.

for raising stocks of these bulbs is not 

 the easiest or the quickest thing 

 known, but there are some great sur- 

 prises coming shortly from the raiser 

 and introducer of Fi-eesia Purity. 



R. W. Saakes reports a much better 

 demand the last few weeks than at 

 any time since he moved to Broad- 

 way. Though doubtless for a time he 

 missed some of the old customers from 

 Main street, where he had so long been 

 established, "Billy" has a most per- 

 suasive manner and soon makes lots of 

 new friends. He is handling the en- 

 tire cut of R. Fischer's freesias. 



Our old friend, D. R. Woods, has a 

 new home in Wilmington and is go- 

 ing to make it a gardener's paradise 

 by planting things not usually seen 

 here. His long experience will stand 

 him in good stead, for, though no 

 longer active in horticultural pursuits, 

 he does not forget the old love.
