The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



Febbuaby 9, 1905. 



TAHRYTOWN, N. Y. 



The Tarrytown Horticultural Society 

 held the first meeting of the year on 

 January 31. The newly elected presi- 

 dent, I>anci8 Gibson, occupied the 

 chair. The prize of the evening, a pair 

 of handsome sleeve links, given by L. 

 A. Martin, was for the best plant suit- 

 able for table decoration. Several fol- 

 iage plants and several flowering plants 

 were placed in competition. The judges, 

 J. Mooney Hastings and JHoward Nich- 

 ols, awarded the prize to^Villiam Scott, 

 his exhibit being a plant of Croton s'l- 

 perba. A very interesting discussion 

 was brought out regarding the rela- 

 tive merits of flowering versus foliage 

 plants for table decoration, the con- 

 sensus of opinion seeming to lean to the 

 plant with flowers. The F. R. Pierson 

 Oo. exhibited several vases of carna- 

 tions and was awarded a certificate of 

 merit for Variegated Lawson, also hon- 

 orable mention for vases of Flamingo 

 and White Lawson. The secretary an- 

 nounced that he had the offer of two 

 special prizes for the next November 

 shows, one of $25 from Mrs, J. B. Tre- 

 vor for the best twelve blooms of Glen- 

 view chrysanthemum, and a silver cup 

 from F. R. Pierson for fifty blooms of 

 Variegated Lawson. 



TORONTO. 



Trade during the past week has been 

 a considerable improvement over prsvi- 

 ous weeks and the retail men all report 

 that receptions, at-homes, etc., are more 

 numerous than during January and we 

 also note that there is an increased de- 

 mand for white flowers for funeral work. 

 Boses are still short, carnations and 

 bulbous stock of all kinds plentiful. 

 Stock does not seem to be moving off as 

 freely as other years. 



We are glad to report that Mr, Lam- 

 pert, of the College Street Flower Shop, 

 iate of Chicago, who has been laid up 

 with sore throat, is back to duty. 



The carnation show under the auspices 

 of the Horticultural Association and To- 

 ronto Gardeners' and Florists' Associa- 

 tion will be held February 16 in St. 

 George's hall. We expect a fine exhibi- 

 tion of this truly popular flower.

I BOUGHT a good deal of stock through 

 the Review for my trade in 1904 and I 

 frant to continue the paper, as I find it 

 very valuable. — Nicholas Himmee, Mer-
