The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



XOVKMBKR 2y, 1906. 



-l^/^-incli pots were sold. Specialists 

 have been secured as managers in all de- 

 partments. In the growing of privet, 

 Hydrangea paniculata, Vibrunum plica- 

 turn, Amphelopsis Vcitchii and Clematis 

 paniculata the firm has a national repu- 

 tation. The company has interests in 

 Cuba that are promising, and Mr. Run- 

 yan is the same tireless, sleepless, effect- 

 ive worker he has been ever since his 

 business was established. 



J, Austin Shav 



TOLEDO, OHIO. 



The club meeting, Thursday, Novem- 

 ber 22, was well attended. After the 

 regular business was out of the way a 

 general discussion of the carnations 

 shown followed. George Bayer brought 

 down a few Prosperity cut from plants 

 that were potted up to fill empty places 

 in the benches. The flowers were fine, 

 in fact better than those cut from the 

 benches, which kept up quite a discus- 

 sion for a while. E. A. Kuhnke, besides 

 showing a lot of Boston, Piersoni and 

 Scottii ferns and Asparagus plumosus 

 in 5-inch pots* and stevia in 7-inch pots, 

 cyclamen in 6-inch pots, brought down a 

 few seedling carnations that took well 

 with the members present. G. W. Haebich, 

 florist at the State Hospital, showed a 

 fine bunch of seedlings as well as well- 

 grown Enchantress and Lawson. Among 

 the seedlings a white took everybody's 

 eye. A dark crimson seedling of Har- 

 lowarden looked much like the parent, 

 but is said to be a more free bloomer. 



Krueger Bros, brought a couple of 8- 

 inch cyclamens that were fine. 



A. L. Griffin has started a new flower 

 store at 901 Jefferson avenue. Most of 

 the stock comes from the greenhouses of 

 Arlin & Arlin, at Clyde, O. He reports 

 business as being away ahead of expecta- 

 tions. 



Thomas Magee, of Scottwood, has an 

 elegant lot of Gloire de Lorraine bego- 

 nias. 



Carnations are scarce, but about the 

 end of January the supply will be all 

 right. E. A. K. 



Springfield, III. — W. T. Buckley 

 states that he has purchased the inter- 

 est of H. M. Buckley in the W. T. Buck- 

 ley Co. and will hereafter conduct the 

 business alone. 



Nashville, Tenn. — The Joy & Son 

 Co., located at 600 Church street, has 

 leased the corner store in the Watkins 

 block, 601 Church street, and will oc- 

 cupy it January 1.
