 OOODYERA 1MENZIKSII 



A pretty little hardy orchid of easy culture, 

 a native of this state, with beautiful mottled 

 green-and-white leaves, growing from 1 to 2 in. 

 in height; a fine and most useful plant forbas- 

 kets and fern dishes, many times outlasting 

 the ferns in hardiness: splendid for the cool 

 house. Sent anywhere in the United States for 

 12.60 per 100, express prepaid. Satisfaction guar- 

 anteed or money refunded. Cash with order.

ping movement should be under way in 

 a week or two. Few gladioli are seen 

 in the shops this week. The supply of 

 dahlias is increasing and some fine 

 stock is appearing. Lilies are over- 

 abundant, especially rubrum, and there 

 are liberal offerings of auratum. Both 

 are used largely in decorations. The 

 cut of storage giganteum is ample. 

 Amaryllis is moving better, with rather 

 large offerings. With cooler weather, 

 roses show some improvement, but are 

 not yet of attractive quality. There is 

 nothing new as to varieties. Orchids 

 are scarce, though a few are being re- 

 ceived, in several varieties. Gardenias 

 have been decidedly popular, and 

 cleaned up readily. In potted stock, 

 unusually fine cockscomb, both red and 

 yellow, was received last week. A few 

 cyclamen plants are appearing, and a 

 good supply of primulas is arriving. 



Various Notes, 



Notwithstanding the many nocturnal 

 celebration8,\a great many of the visit- 

 ing florists last week took time to visit 

 the flower market during the active 

 period, between 6:30 and 8 a. m. The 

 visitors found many interesting fea- 

 tures in the methods of handling the 

 stock, one of them being the growers' 

 cooperative system in the carnation 

 market. The chief interest, however, 

 was in the abundance and quality of 

 the stock itself. The leading stores 

 have been keeping open house, and most 

 of them have taken pains to have some- 

 thing better than usual to display. 



J, Tsuda, president of the Tsuda 

 Nursery Co., wholesale growers of Japa- 

 nese bulbs, plants and seeds, has an 

 office at 463 Pacific building. He an- 

 nounces the intention of establishing a 

 nursery near San Francisco, as a sup- 

 plement to the company's nurseries in 

 Japan. 



Domoto Bros, brought in many nice 

 cyclamen plants^ last week. 



B. Eschner, president of the M. Eice 

 Co., of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Eschner, 

 have been spending several weeks trav- 

 eling on the coast. 



Albert 0. Stein had the work of 

 decorating the hall in the San Fran- 

 cisco auditorium, for the 8. A. F. con- 

 vention, and the colonial ballroom in 

 the St. Francis hotel, for the recep- 

 tion. The principal materials used 

 were rubrum lilies, furnished by Fer- 

 rari Bros,, palms and greens from the 

 MacRorie-McLaren Co., and asters sent 

 in by the E. W. McLellan Co. 



Mr. and Mrs. E, R, Chappell, of Port- 

 land, Ore., have been on a motor trip 

 as far south as San Diego, where they 

 took in the southern exposition. They 

 returned to San Francisco in time for 

 the convention. 



J, P. Parker, of Santa Cruz, an- 

 nounces that he recently made an im- 

 portant addition to his stock of orchids. 



Fred Boock, of New Ulm, Minn., 

 has left for the north, after spending 

 the better part of a month in San 

 Francisco and vicinity. 



William Hutchins, a fern grower at 

 Fruitvale, was married August 33. 



During the S. A. F. convention, J. A. 

 Carbone, of Berkeley, had a beautiful 

 exhibit of orchids in the store of Peli- 

 cano, Rossi & Co. The exhibit included 

 several good pictures of Mr, Carbons 's 

 greenhouses during the blooming sea- 

 son.
