ROCHESTER. 



Wliilo our citizens pride themselves 

 on their manufacturing plants, their 

 scenic environment, etc., the seed, nur- 

 sery and florists ' business, which has 

 accomplished so much for the benefit of 

 Rochester, i.s not overlooked. Here has 

 been the acknowledged center of the 

 nursery and seed trade in America for 

 years, and more greatly accentuated 

 now by the output of last season and 

 the excellent outlook for the coming year. 

 Why should this not be, while Rochester 

 IS the flowery as well as the "floury" 

 city of the United States f 



Most of our cut flower dealers own 

 their greenhouses and the produce is put 

 in evidence in the best of condition. The 

 genial Salter Brothers are showing 

 nearly all that is purchasable now. Tulips, 

 dafl'odils, azaleas, orchids, lilacs, mignon- 

 ette, ericas, etc., are so arranged that 

 they attract attention from any passer-by. 

 Keller Brothers' display, among others, 

 Otaheite oranges, hydrangeas, valley, 

 crocus, hyacinths, rhododendrons and 

 Wistarias. Wilson, with his two stores, 

 lias an excellent variety of flowering and 

 foliage plants an^i trade is report.-d l-cie 

 as with the other caterers — excellent. 

 Boucher is doing good business in the 

 sanio 'Jass of stock, including fine ciner- 

 arias fjid cyclamen. Fn>ni the poorest 

 to Tlie millionaire, all can be a^itonnno- 

 dated in the florists' line in Rochester. 



Besides the large and increasinrj de- 

 mand for plants, the cut flower people 

 i.ave jusi reason to be .lubihuit over Inst 

 '•eni 's transactions Jind this year's, so 

 far. Bulbous stock has given good re- 

 sults. 



Oeorge Hart, our only commission 

 man, declares he is more than satisfied 

 with past receipts, both in goods and 

 cash. Business with him looks bright. 



Vick & Hill Co. have an interesting 

 range of glass and handle the greatest 

 variety of plants that can be desired. 

 The appearance of the plants convinces 

 one that they enjoy life; not like those 

 described by a Avriter who saw some in 

 a city establishment in this state, which 

 "were weary and Avilling to die." Fred 

 Vick superintends the whole busine.ss 

 personally, and this means a whole lot to 

 his customers, which they appreciate. 

 There are ten houses, each 100 feet long 

 and thirty feet wide, with the exception 

 of the propagating pit which is consider- 

 ably narrower. Some are filled with 

 carnations, both old favorites and new 

 varieties. Foliage plants — palms. Bos-

THE WEEDER FOR FLORISTS 



The Inner edge is sharp. Its oval shape permits the operator to weed behind the plants while 

 standing in front. The pushing edj^e Is thin enough to work easily through the soil, but too dull,to 

 damage the stems of the plants should It come in contact with tlieni. 



It takes out tht> weeds and leaves the surface smooth. What's tnore, it does all the work so 

 rapid it will pay for itself in one day's use.

 I)aii(lainis and a host of others are grown 

 ill nil sizes and grades. A fine collection 

 of "mums" was apparent and, judging 

 from the number, these must be one of 

 Vick & Hill's "bowers." Azaleas also 

 must be paying propasitions: Deutsche 

 I'orle, Vervameana. Van der ("ru.vssen, 

 India, Mardner and others show up in 

 fit condition. The variety and number 

 of bedding plants is astonishing, both 

 potted plants and cuttings in the pit. 

 The ground outside, nearly fifty acres.
