The Florists' Review 



March 4, 1915. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Cleveland public was treated to 

 an elegant show at the Hollenden hotel 

 as a feature of the work of the Cleve- 

 land Florists' Club. The retailers made 

 a fine display, arranged attractively on 

 tables. 



The James Eadie Co. showed Crim- 

 son Brilliant, Yellow Prince and La 

 Reine tulips, which were tastefully ar- 

 ranged and finished off with ribbons to 

 match each variety. A unique exhibit 

 was also staged by this company, which 

 consisted of a cradle effectively 

 trimmed with corsages of Killarney 

 {roses and valley. 



> On the table arranged by the J. M. 

 Gasser Co. were clusters of lilacs, for- 

 get-me-nots, acacia, cherries and 

 •heather. A blue bowl placed in one 

 corner contained goldfish with natural 

 butterflies placed here and there on the 

 brim. 



The Jones-Russell Co. had a frame, 

 back of which was placed a nosegay 

 ;xn,ade of tight-budded Ward roses, for- 

 get-me-nots, acacia and the acacia 

 foliage. This was tied with a large 

 bow of Dresden ribbon and made a 

 li>eautiful picture. 



j I S. N. Pentecost showed some excel- 

 ■ lent hydrangea and daffodil plants. 



A basket artistically filled with 

 'spring flowers was shown by Knoble 

 Bros. Pink tulips, jonquils, daffodils, 

 freesias, mignonette. Sunburst and 

 Ward roses, primroses, violets, maiden- 

 hair ferns and pussy willows were all 

 tastefully arranged in the basket. 



A large art vase filled with Carna- 

 tion Philadelphia, grown by the Brook- 

 line Floral Co., was shown by the 

 Cleveland Plant & Flower Co. Pros- 

 perity, Keizerskroon, Yellow Prince, 

 Couronne d'Or and Thomas Moore tu- 

 lips were also shown by this exhibitor. 

 A shallow bowl filled with cattleyas, 

 which were superb, completed its ex- 

 hibit. 



The Cleveland Florists' Exchange 

 staged a large basket filled with extra 

 fine Killarney roses. A fine display of 

 carnations, which were grown by 

 Claude Tyler, of North Olmsted, O., 

 also was shown. 



Smith & Fetters Co. had a large bas- 

 ket filled with white snapdragons, 

 Hoosier Beauty roses and maidenhair. 

 Ribbons matching the roses in color 

 were used to trim the basket. 



On W. A. Calhoun's table was a 

 white porcelain bowl with a vase in 

 the center, which was filled with allium 

 and Farleyense. The bowl was filled 

 with violets. 



Hart Bros, showed a beautiful John 

 Waterer rhododendron. 



The McCallum Co. had a large ex- 

 hibit of Marie Louise violets. 



Carl Hagenburger staged six speci- 

 men plants of acacia. Butterfly sweet 

 peas, violets and Philadelphia carna- 

 tions.

 baskets filled with several varieties of 

 roses, carnations and tulips. 



The Kirchner Floral Co. had a large 

 variety of highly colored cinerarias 

 with fine foliage. 



The Naumann Co. had an effective 

 exhibit of hyacinths in pans and 

 Primula obconica plants.
