which is very salable. Orchids have 

 sold well, when they have arrived in good 

 condition. 



Adiantum Farleyense* 



Adiantum Farleyense is the most beau- 

 tiful of our tender ferns. Its exquisite 

 form, grace and shadings of color ap- 

 peal irresistibly to all flower lovers; 

 decorators prize it for choice work, either 

 with the most fragile blossoms or alone. 

 The diflSculty in growing this tender adi- 

 antum has greatly restricted its use. For 

 a number of years Philadelphia was 

 obliged to depend on outside growers for 

 a certain supply of fine fronds of this 

 variety. This is the more remarkable 

 when the skill of our local plantsmen is 

 considered, but now it is pleasant to re- 

 late we have at least two growers who 

 are able to produce Adiantum Farley- 

 ense of finest quality, in suflBcient quan- 

 tity to supply this and probably other 

 cities. H. H. Battles, whose belief in 



the use of all varieties of fine green is 

 well known, is sending out from his 

 Thornhedge Greenhouses stock that adds 

 even to his reputation, while the Henry 

 A. Dreer Co. is using its new dahlia 

 houses for the time being to produce 

 stock that any good judge would unhesi- 

 tatingly place in class A, section 1. The 

 modus operandi is one of those simple 

 combinations of conditions controlled and 

 certain laws of plant health strictly fol- 

 lowed, which so often distinguish the su- 

 perior from the ordinary plantsman. 



Variotu Note*. 



The Leo Niesaen Co. believes that the 

 quality of flowers will be exceptionally 

 fine for Thanksgiving. Chrysanthemums 

 promise to be more plentiful than in 

 former years. 



Mr. and Mrs. George Burton were also 

 noted among those taking in the sight. 



The street thinks that the introduction 

 into commerce of Saintpaulia ionantha, 



the African violet, is another sign of the 

 astuteness of William K. Harris. 



George Field, of Washington, D. C, 

 has been sending choice blooms of Vanda 

 ca?rulea to the S. S. Pennock-Meehan Co. 



Philadelphians were much pleased that 

 John Burton was one of the judges at 

 the Chicago show. 



Samuel S. Pennock is the latest addi- 

 tion to the life membership of the Amer- 

 ican Eose Society. 



The Century Flower Shop has made a 

 decided improvement in its place by add- 

 ing a very attractive conservatory. 



Henry A. Dreer is very busy with cat- 

 alogue work, in order to get the cata- 

 logues out at the right time. 



One of the firm of H. Weber & Sons, 

 of Oakland, Md., was in town, and while 

 here took in the Penn-Michigan football 

 game. 



The Johnson Seed Co. reports the sale 

 of bulbs very brisk, and business for the
