The Weekly Rorists' Review- 



Max 11, 190S. 



SAVANAH, GA. 



*' John Wolf's business has been in- 

 creasing in a very satisfactory manner 

 and he now has the largest place in the 

 south, as he recently bought an adjoin- 

 ing piece of property consisting of six 

 acres and has erected on it seventeen 

 greenhouses, amounting to 140,000 square 

 feet of glass, which would be a pretty 

 fair addition for one season even in 

 the big cut flower growing centers, 

 where the business is much better de- 

 veloped than it is in Georgia. Mr. Wolf 

 used cypress and yellow pine in his new 

 range, adopting all the latest improve- 

 ments in regard to ventilating and heat- 

 ing. 



Six of the new houses, each 22x150, 

 have been planted to. roses. Four houses 

 22x100 are to -be devoted to carnations 

 and two houses 22x115 are planted with 

 chrysanthemums. A house 36x100 is 

 iised for palms and ferns and there is a 

 high house 22x98 for smilax and aspara- 

 gus. A house 22x162 is used for mis- 

 cellaneous stock, including asters, Har- 

 risii lilies, etc. A propagating house 

 11x100 is also provided. 



In addition Mr. Wolf has 500 hotbed 

 sash, under which he grows a variety of 

 stock but largely bulbs, principally 

 Paper Whites and Romans. The adjoin- 

 ing land is planted with such nursery 

 Btock as is needed in the vicinity of 

 a prosperous southern city. A very large 

 number of roses are sold for bedding 

 purposes. The city water system is used 

 in both houses and field and is very satis- 

 factory. 



Mr. Wolf does both a wholesale and re- 

 tail business. He began with only a few 

 hotbed sash and has every reason to feel 

 proud of what he has achieved. He is 

 certainly one of the most progressive 

 florists of the south. 



MENTION US TO ADVERTISERS. 



One cannot be anything but pleased 

 with the Beview; the Special Number 

 was a "beaut." Anything I caii do to 

 push a good thing along I will do with 

 pleasure. H. P. Lodino.
