The Weekly Florists' Review* 



JULX 2«, 1906. 



-ELBERON.N.J. 



The first flower show of the Elberon 

 Horticultural Society was held July 13 

 and 14, in the fire company's building. 

 There were fifty-three classes of exhibits 

 in the premium list, and all but six had 

 entries. The show was attended by large 

 crowds during the . full two days, the 

 summer cottagers being much interested. 



The exhibits occupied two floors and 

 the basement of the building. The sec- 

 ond floor had cut flowers and rare plants, 

 the first floor bay trees, ferns and other 

 decorative plants, while in the basement 

 were vegetables and the geranium dis- 

 play. 



Mrs. Thomas T. Kinney 's exhibits were 

 strong in outdoor fruit, herbaceous 

 plants, annuals and ferns. G. W. Young, 

 Samuel Sachs and Eugene Mayer, Fred- 

 erick Dittlinger gardener, had fine vege- 

 table displays. William Bryan's collec- 

 tion of roses took first prize. Special 

 certificates of merit were awarded Daniel 

 O'Day, A. Bauer gardener, one for 

 Standard Bay Rambler roses, another for 

 geraniums, box bush and heliotropes; 

 Mrs. T. T. Kinney, for dahlias and ferns, 

 exhibited by W. D. Bobertson; A. E. 

 Guggenheim, Herbert Hall gardener, Eex 

 begonias and fruit. 



The judges, of the exhibit were Alex- 

 ander Mackenzie, Glen Cove, N. Y. ; H. 

 A. Kettell, of Oceanic, and John Frankie, 

 of Tuxedo Park. 



The Elberon Horticultural Society was 

 organized last November. At present it 

 has seventy members, living in Long 

 Branch, Deal and Allenhurst. The pres- 

 ent officers of the society, to whom credit 

 is due for the success of the first flower 

 show, are: President, William D. Rob- 

 ertson; vice-president, Herbert Hall; 

 secretary, George Masson; treasurer, 

 James Kennedy; executive committee, A. 

 Bauer, H. Wood, A. Grieb, E. O'Rourke, 

 Frederick Dittlinger and J. Rallston. 

 The society holds monthly meetings at 

 the Elberon fire engine house.

jjusiness is good. The supply of cut 

 flowers has been much shorter than the 

 demand for some weeks past, even such 

 common flowers as phlox, hollyhocks, 

 feverfew and other outside stuff selling 

 out from day to day. Business has 

 fallen off considerably since the latter 

 part of last week, and Cochet roses were 

 left over in quantities on Saturday. 

 Carnations are out of the question, a 

 few good white ones coming in, but 

 not nearly enough to supply the de- 

 mand. Asters have made their appear- 

 ance, but don't remain on sale long. 

 Funeral work is the chief source of trade 

 now. A. F.
