DATE OF EASTER. 



Easter of 1906 falls on April 15, 

 eight days earlier than in 1905. 



RING OFF. 



Can you advise a retail florist what 

 to do when a cheap female customer calls 

 over the phone and asks if you will send 

 her a wreath frame and some moss, that 

 she wants to make a wreath for a 

 friend who is dead! Stiles Co. 



BOSTON FERNS AND ASPARAGUS. 



Can I grow Boston and aspaxagus 

 ferns in a house used to grow bedding 

 plants? The temperature is as low as 

 42 degrees. Also, can I get blooms on 

 cyclamens in May from seed that is 

 sown in September t C. G. 



Forty-two or even 45 degrees is 

 too low to grow either of these plants. 

 There will be no profit in it. They will 

 only exist. The nephrolepis is a most 

 accommodating fern and, considering 

 they were natives of Central America, 

 they endure and keep healthy in a much 

 lower temperature than would be sup- 

 posed. The asparagus (presumably 

 plumosus is meant) is also from a warm 

 climate, but exists in good health in a 

 temperature of 50 degrees. Forty-two 

 is altogether too low. They would stand 

 still. 



No, you cannot sow cyclamen seed 

 this month and get any size to your 

 plants by next May. September is the 

 month to sow cyclamen and those plants 

 are expected to bloom a year from next 

 November and December. 



Now I want, in the kindliest feeling, 

 to tell C. G. that I am surprised that a 

 commercial florist would be so careless as 

 to speak of "Boston and asparagus 

 ferns." We expect Aunt Maria, from 

 tho country, when she visits the city flo- 

 rist, to use such nomenclature because 

 she has a red-hot poker plant, as well as 

 a beefsteak geranium, but the commer- 

 cial florist should lead in calling our 

 plants by their correct names and the 

 asparagus is no more allied to the great 

 fern order than is a cauliflower. W. S.
