Foliage Plants. 



The groups in foliage plants staged 

 by the Julius Eoehrs Co., Bobbink & 

 Atkins and the Knight & Struck Co., 

 while they furnished nothing apparently 

 new in the line of plants, showed great 

 advantage in the stage effects over pre- 

 vious years, everything being plainly 

 labeled and the effects being a decided 

 break-away from the old haystack style 

 of grouping. 



Forced shrubs and herbaceous plants 

 furnished a most attractive group 

 staged by the Julius Roehrs Co., and 

 since the widest latitude was allowed in 

 all the exhibits, it also furnished an 

 object lesson in a more natural method 

 of staging. 



The awards on foliage and miscella- 

 neous plant classes were:
