The Weekly Florists^ Review*

BALTIMORE. 



The Market 



At last the jubilee week is at hand, 

 and it is hoped that the florists will reap 

 some benefit from the crowds that will 

 visit the city. However, the street flow- 

 er boys get the harvest generally, and 

 thousands of button-hole bouquets will 

 be sold. 



Business has been brisk. Lexington 

 market looks its best, and cut flowers 

 have been in demand. The Eutaw street 

 buildings have hampered some of the 

 florists to a great extent, but are now 

 nearly completed, and the florists feel 

 that when they get their old stands back 

 they will be at home again. 



Various Notes. 



K. Vincent & Son, White Marsh, Md., 

 will hold their annual dahlia exhibition 

 Wednesday, September 19. The Balti- 

 more Gardeners' Club and the Washing- 

 ton Florists' Club have been invited 

 to attend, and will- be met at Cowenton 

 by Mr. Vincent. An exhibition of cut 

 dahlias and flowers will be made and 

 blooming plants in the flelds. All in- 

 terested in flowers are invited to go. 

 Exhibits will be made by Griffith &

 riety, and he claims it is extra fine

Scores of Florisfs Use 



HAMMOND'S GRAPE DUST 



Chrysantliemums and Carnations . 



This comes from WALLACE GOMERSALL. late superintendent of the 

 famous •Wodenethc owntd and finely maintained by Wimhrop Sargent. 

 Esq., Fbhkill-on-Hudson. NY.: ^ *^ ' 



"For Chrysanthemums we use GRAPE DUST with the best results by 

 freely dusimg with it until the delicate blooms come, then we are a bit shy of 

 It, to prtvrnt any staining of the petals, but during the green state, evtn in 

 b<td wcaihtr, thereisno trace of fungus, and we keep free of the spot. I 

 bave recommtndrdittomanygardentrs, and so tar my acquaintances have 

 tound It very valuable. In comm«.n with many ga-deners and fl -r-sts I 

 have found it of great value in checking the rnst on carnations. It is not 

 expensive to use, for by using in air beilows it dififus^s itself everywhere, and 

 IS. in my judjjment a valuable every day article. For roses it is of exceptional 

 beneht against mildew. *^ 



How to Use "GRAPE DUST" for VIOLETS, 



ROSES, etc., in the Greenhouse. 



Fill the house with dust as soon as the plants are 

 set, and let it sttt'e ov»rthe plants, or put one pound 

 to a pail of water and spray it finely over everything, 

 plants, ground, bfuches, etc. Spores are likely to 

 settle anywhtre about, and prevention is ihe best 

 rerardy. Its fineness, its rt liability, and its great 

 diff>isivene«s combine to make GRAPE DUST 

 take the highest rank as a popular and economical 

 fungicide, and no mistake about it.
