The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



May 3, 1906. 



DENISON, TEX. 



Denison was visited by a hailstorm 

 one night last week which was almost 

 unparalleled in severity and which did 

 much damage within a small district. 

 The Munson nurseries and greenhouses 

 were probably the heaviest sufferers. 

 Will B. Munson roughly estimated the 

 total damage at between $2,000 and 

 $3,000. Of the 5,000 panes of glass at 

 the greenhouses only three or four were 

 found unbroken. The heavy hail beat 

 the glass on the stock and cut and 

 bruised the plants so severely that many 

 were ruined. The handsome palms at the 

 nursery were almost ruined, the hail 

 stones tearing the. leaves. Grapevines 

 and tender buds on trees were badly 

 torn. 



The hail completely shattered every 

 pane of glass in the two greenhouses 

 at E. Farley's, 330 West Munson street. 

 The hail and the total loss of plants and 

 houses is estimated to reach about $500. 



NORTHERN TEXAS. 



Bright, warm weather is making things 

 hum. We are in the rush of work inci- 

 dent to planting out. Everything is be- 

 ing planted, tender as w^ell as hardy 

 stock, and better prices are being real- 

 ized than we looked for. It looks as if 

 the demand will exceed the supply. 



Carnations are in the field and are 

 making fine growth. Eoses in the field 

 are now in bloom. 



Enough funeral work is being done to 

 take up all the stock and as yet there is 

 no waste. 



Carnations on the benches are going 

 along lively, but I cannot say that I 

 am in favor of the east and west house 

 in this section. The sun, when it comes 

 during the rainy season, is so hot that 

 the bloom is cooked in this style of 

 house, while in the north and south house 

 the sun cannot have the same chance. 



Eeports from different places in this 

 section are that the past Easter was 

 the best ever experienced. A number 

 who were not looking for much business, 

 were caught without stock to sell. Learn- 

 ing by experience, they are placing larger 

 orders with the seed and bulb houses for 

 next fall and winter. Narcissus. 



Nottingham, N. H. — L. E. Williams 

 reports one of the most backward sea- 

 sons in his recollection, there still being 

 snow and ice in many places. 



Harvey, III. — The ladies who a year 

 or two ago took hold of the Harvey 

 Greenhouses have done so well that they 

 are now adding about 3,500 feet of glass 

 to the plant.
