HYDRANGEAS 



Our Hydrangeas are all grown in the open ground during the summer, where they make a very luxurious 

 growth, producing heavy heads. They are potted up in August and will be thoroughly rootbound in 

 October. They are extra heavy this season and will not only produce iiowers from the shoots but also 

 from the dormant buds at the base. They cannot be better and will satisfy the most critical.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA. 



The Market. 



Birmingham has experienced a bet- 

 ter summer in the flower trade than 

 any of the last three years. Box trade 

 has been excellent for the last four 

 weeks, and we have had a large num- 

 ber of good funeral orders. All of the 

 local growers have their carnations 

 benched and well started. The rose 

 stock for the coming winter is excel- 

 lent. Pot plants for Christmas are com- 

 ing along nicely. 



Various Notes. 



Hugh Scales has plans for erecting 

 one or two houses late this fall. 



The Parker estate has begun the 

 erection of another large house for car- 

 nations. They have added extensively 

 to the range during the last year and 

 have had wonderful success under the 

 management of J. B. Patterson, who 

 has had charge of the estate since the 

 death of the former owner. 



T. G. Owens & Sons are again open 

 for business at their home at Nine- 

 teenth street and Second avenue. 



The KeUy Floral Co., of Ensley, re- 

 cently acquired possession of the Luther 

 flower store and has made large im- 

 provements. W. J. Z. 



ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. 



The Market. 



The beginning of September business 

 was unusually good, but last week it 

 was quite slow, but for some funeral 

 work. The weather was extremely hot 

 and the stores found it difficult to get 

 good stock. Dahlias seem to suffer from 

 the heat and arrive in poor condition. 

 Chrysanthemums do not find much sale, 

 but the first carnations move quite 

 well. 



Various Notes. 



The Egg Harbor Flower Shop had 

 some good funeral orders for a man 

 quite prominent in the city. 



A large order for decorations and a 

 great number of gifts in celebration of 

 a golden wedding kept the Edwards 

 Floral Hall Co. force busy Sunday, Sep- 

 tember 12. 



The Chelsea Flower Shop closed last 

 week.
