HYACINTHS IN COLD FRAME. 



Would it be possible to get hyacinths 

 into bloom for Easter in a cold frame 

 where they will get the sun for four 

 hours a day? I have no room in the 

 greenhouses. They are outdoors and 

 well rooted. H. C. O. 



Most decidedly you can flower them 

 in a cold frame. I should think that 

 in eastern New Jersey, where your let- 

 ter is dated, they would be almost in 

 flower by that date in the open ground. 

 The early appearance of the robins, 

 street pianos, muskrats and Dutch bulb 

 salesmen all point to an early spring. 

 Something depends upon how forward 

 the plants are now, but if well rooted 

 they will not want more than ten days 

 in a cold frame and they may need a 

 shading on bright, warm days. We re- 

 member an Easter some sixteen years 

 ago about as late as this one and we 

 had to put hyacinths, tulips and nar- 

 cissi into a cold frame with airyT;nd 

 shade to retard them. W. S. 



IMPORTS AND EXPORTS. 



The exports of cut flowers from the 

 United States, all or so nearly all that 

 the others need not be considered, go to 

 Canada. In 1903 we sent out cut flow- 

 ers valued at $5,290, and in 1904 our 

 exports of cut flowers were valued at 

 $5,076. Practically all the cut flowers 

 imported, too, come from Canada, the 

 only exception of any consequence being 

 the annual cargo of Easter lilies from 

 Bermuda. In 1903 the United States 

 imported cut flowers to the value of 

 $31,577, and in 1904 the aggregate 

 value of cut flower imports was $42,612.

Pomona, N. C. — The J. Van Lindley 

 Nursery Co. is preparing to build two 

 more new greenhouses to meet the ever 

 increasing demand, one house 30x100 

 feet for asparagus and smilax, and one 

 24x212 feet for violets. Among carna- 

 tions they find the greatest call for 

 Enchantress and Mrs. T. W. Lawson. 

 Flamingo has proven to be a good one 

 and they will increase their planting of 

 it the coming season, also a bright red 

 sport of their own which they have tested 

 for the past two years and find very 

 satisfactory.
