The Florists' Review 



71 



the supply of sweet peas has taken a 

 sudden jump, prices are high, and a 

 few buyers lately have been snapping 

 up the bulk of the offerings. Carna- 

 tions also are firmly held. Dwarf gla- 

 dioli are plentiful, but the white va- 

 rieties are eagerly taken up at rather 

 stiff prices. A good deal of statice is 

 coming in, finding about the usual de- 

 mand. The large yellow and blue na- 

 tive lupines are appearing and are 

 something of a novelty to eastern vis- 

 itors. Lilium giganteum does fairly 

 well, with ample supplies. A good many 

 small lots of oriental poppies are seen 

 and they take well with the trade. Only 

 a few peonies have appeared so far. 



Cecile Brunner roses continue tre- 

 mendously popular locally, and also fig- 

 ure prominently in the shipping trade. 

 A few fine small moss roses have come 

 in. Outdoor roses are plentiful and fine. 

 Ulrich Brunner is taking the lead in 

 popularity over all other large va- 

 rieties at present. Aaron Ward is also 

 strong. The call for white roses is 

 spasmodic, being rather heavy at the 

 moment. Orchids find satisfactory sale. 

 Cattleyas are plentiful and as fine as 

 ever, and phalsenopsis is popular. Some 

 beautiful odontoglossums are also ap- 

 pearing. Among potted plants, rambler 

 roses are still in evidence and there is 

 an abundance of large bougainvilleas 

 in full bloom. 



Various Notes. 



The announcement has just been is"^ 

 sued of the grand national fall flower 

 show, to be held under the auspices of 

 the Pacific Coast Horticultural Society, 

 in conjunction with the Chrysanthe- 

 mum Society of America and the de- 

 partment of horticulture of the Pan- 

 ama-Pacific exposition, in the Palace of 

 Horticulture, October 21 to 26. Those 

 in immediate charge will be: H. Plath, 

 manager; John E. Fotheringham, as- 

 sistant manager, and T. Taylor, secre- 

 tary. It is expected that this will be 

 the largest and finest flower show ever 

 staged on the Pacific coast. A large 

 number of medals and cash prizes have 

 been donated by the Panama-Pacific 

 Exposition Co., in addition to a number 

 of important premiums given by promi- 

 nent firms. Premiums are offered in 

 112 numbers. Chrysanthemums will be 

 the most important flwwers shown, but 

 provision is made for the entry of cut 

 roses, carnations, lily of the valley, 

 lilies, herbaceous perennials, annuals, 

 dahlias, tuberous begonias, orchids, 

 palms, ferns, table decorations, bou- 

 quets, etc. 



The international jury of awards for 

 exhibits at the exposition has been at 

 work for the last two weeks. The mem- 

 bers of the jury in the division of 

 arboriculture and floriculture are: Geo. 

 C. Roediiife, of Fresno, Cal., chairman; 

 A. Van Vliet, of the Netherlands com- 

 mission to the exposition, vice-chair- 

 man; Peter Bisset, of the Department 

 of Agriculture, Washington, D. C; 

 Chas. H. Totty, of Madison, N. J.; E. 

 Oda, of the Japanese commission to the 

 exposition, and James Buchanan, of 

 Cuba. The members of the seasonal 

 jury, judging the exhibits from week 

 to week up to August 1, are H. Plath, 

 E. .Tames and J. R. Fotheringham. 



Within the last few weeks Dreer's 

 collection of aquatics in the Palace of 

 Horticulture at the exposition have 

 been coming on finely, and the water 

 lilies are just beginning to bloom.
