this method. A plant of Lselia pur- 

 purata x Cattleya Mossiaj Reineckiana 

 is in flower for the first time. The 

 color is intense, a light shading of 

 rose in the petals to the deepest wine 

 color in the lip; truly a gorgeous flower. 

 Cypripedium Mrs. Wm. Kimball is a 

 gem among the cyps. A fine specimen 

 is now in bloom. Among the newer 

 things outdoors is Abies Veitchii, the 

 leaves of which are of a beautiful sil- 

 very color underneath and bright green 

 above. Anchusa, Dropmore variety, is 

 an acquisition to the list of perennials; 

 a fine, bold flower of an intense blue, 

 with a large spike and robust habit.

 Cleveland, showed the writer a beauti- 

 ful lot of moss roses that are good 



Robert Klebert, of the Hoffman 

 Greenhouses, Elmira, N. Y., and John 

 B. Rudy, Elmira, both report an excep- 

 tionally good season. 



Richard King, superintendent of the 

 United States Cut Flower Co., Elmira, 

 is planning to be an exhibitor at the 

 Cleveland fall show. 



H. J. Krueger, Meadville, Pa., re- 

 ports an exceedingly busy season, with 

 a rush of commencement orders as a 



finale. 



George F. Braybon, Kent, O., is one 

 of the few who successfully conduct 

 the business without the aid of a store. 

 He is a pioneer and thoroughly up-to- 

 date. W.M. 



EOCHESTER FLOWER SHOW. 



George B. Hart, chairman of the com- 

 mittee that is getting up the summer 

 flower show, sends the following: 



"Rochester is to have a big flower 

 show from August .'>0 to September 11. 

 It is to be held in connection with the 

 annual Rochoster exposition, admitted 

 to be the greatest municipal exposition 

 in the United States. Now in its eighth 

 year, it is attended by upward of a 

 quarter of a million people. 



' ' This is the first year of the flower 

 show, but it is to be on a big scale, 

 just like all other big departments of 

 the exposition. It is to be a show of na- 

 tional scope, where the grower and the 

 florist, the seedsman and the importer, 

 may meet and get acquainted and do 

 business. 



' ' Exhibition space is offered free to 

 all growers and florists, seedsmen and

 That in itself guarantees the artistic 

 features of the show, which will be 

 arranged in garden effect."
