The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



Februahy 15, 1906. 



We beg to announce to our customers and friends that commencing the J 5th 

 of February, 1 906, we shall conduct our business under the name of 



The Yokohama Nursery Co. Ltd. 



whom we represented heretofore, with branches in Yokohama and London. 



The business will be conducted in the same way as before, and no change in the present management will take place.

MOLINE, ILL. 



A meeting of the Tri-City Florists' 

 Association was held in Moline February 

 9. Several matters of importance were 

 taken up ;^d a committee of five was 

 appointed to draft a petition to be sent 

 to the Iowa and Illinois delegations in 

 congress asking them to lend their aid 

 to the passage of the parcels post law 

 which is now pending. The committee 

 which will have charge of this matter is 

 as follows: Adolph Arp, chairman, and 

 Henry Pauli, of Davenport; Henry 

 Gager and Henry Meyers, of Eock 

 Island, and "William Knees and Julius 

 Staack, of Moline. In taking up the 

 matter the members drew attention to 

 the benefits that would arise by the 

 passage of this bill, in allowing them to 

 send a good many packages to surround- 

 ing towns where now they have to either 

 patronize the express companies or lose 

 the business. 



A discussion as to what seeds should 

 be planted at tu^s time of the year and 

 what plants should be grown for Easter, 

 was entered into by all the members. 



POINSETTIAS. 



We bought a quantity of cut poinset- 

 tias last Christmas which did not sell, so 

 we cut up the stems to single-eye cuttings 

 and placed in sand. Nearly all of them 

 rooted and are now potted up with green 

 shoots about two inches long. How shall 

 we treat them now, as this is the season 

 when poinsettias should be resting? If 

 we start to dry these young plants off, 

 will they not die? Shall be pleased to 

 know how to treat them. A. J. N. 



Don't by any means attempt to dry 

 off these little plants. Starting them so 

 early, they will most likely make taller 

 plants than are desirable, but if you keep 

 them growing, you can later make cut- 

 tings of the young growths and from 

 where you take off the cuttings, you will 

 get other breaks for propagating. "We 

 have found from many years' experience 

 with these plants that for a single plant 

 in a .5-ineh or 6-inch pot, or for planting 

 on a bench for cutting, that cuttings 

 struck in July is early enough and for 

 pans September is as early as is desired.

 eight days earlier than in 1905.

The Eeview is away above the aver- 

 age of florists' papers and I would not 

 be without it for ten times its cost.
