The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



MAncH 14, 1907. 



probably be cleared of scale in the near 

 future, as almost all of the nurserymen 

 in Louisiana fully realize the importance 

 of getting rid of these pests. Forty- 

 three certificates of inspection have been 

 issued. 



"Since this inspection syste^i was in- 

 augurated last season the amount of nur- 

 sery stock grown in the state has in- 

 creased almost 400 per cent. Last season 

 the inspectors of the commission ex- 

 amined 683,550 growing marketable trees 

 and shrubs. This season the number has 

 been increased to 2,172,632. 



"In addition to the above, several 

 thousand orchard trees, which were grow- 

 ing in close proximity to nurseries, were 

 examined. 



"On the whole, the status of the nur- 

 . scry business of the state is most en- 

 couraging. The extraordinary increase 

 of salable stock in one season, the in- 

 creased number of nurseries inspectea, 

 and the diminution in percentage of 

 nurseries infested, all point to the fact 

 that the protection and assistance given 

 to both buyers and sellers of nurseiy 

 stock by the commission, has had the 

 effect of stimulating the state's fruit 

 industries. 



LENOX, MASS. 



The regular meeting of the Lenox 

 Horticultural Society was held Saturday, 

 March 2, President F. Heeremans in the 

 chair. The schedules for the June, Au- 

 gust and fall exhibitions were read and 

 adopted. This being carnation night, it 

 brought out some fine exhibits. The fol- 

 lowing exhibitors were awarded first 

 prizes: A. J, Loveless, for a fine vase 

 of Robert Craig; F. H«eremans, for En- 

 chantress; A. McConnachie, for Mrs. T. 

 W. Lawson, also winning for a vase of 

 mixed varieties. A. H. Wingett staged 

 a vase of Stock Queen Alexandra which 

 was much admired, some of the spikes 

 being fully three feet in length, and was 

 awarded a cultural certificate, also for 

 two fine vases of President Carnot and 

 Bichmond roses. I may say that Rich- 

 mond is doing remarkably well here, al- 

 though we have had a dull winter, and 

 all the growers speak highly of it. 



Three silver cups were offered and ac- 

 cepted for competition at our fall exhi- 

 bition by the following firms: Henry A. 

 Dreer, Philadelphia; R. & J. Farquhar, 

 Boston, and E. Jaques, Lenox. The fol- 

 lowing firms have also offered premiums:

WILLIAM SAUNDERS 



The flowers are large, of splendid form, and are borne very freely in immense clusters. 

 The color Is a deep rich shining scarlet slightly dappled with crimson. Pollage is a rioli 

 bronze. Height, 3H to 4 feet. We believe that Wm. Saunders is decidedly the most perfeot 

 Oanna of this type that has been introduced. 60c each; $5.00 per doz.; $85.00 per 100. 



OTTAWA 



Is a strong grower. Tery robust and 5 to 6 feet high. The flowers are large and beau- 

 tifully formed, color is carmine with tints of old rose and deep coral, add to this the silken 

 sheen and you can imagine the effect a few plants will produce. 



NOTE— We bad this Oanna on trial among the Oanadian experimental stations last 

 summer and this is the official report of their expert: "Quite distinct and one of the most 

 beautiful shades of color I ever saw in Oannas. Of 70 massed in one bed during the past 

 season, this was the most floriferous in the collection, coming into bloom early and con- 

 tinuing until cut down by frost, as many as 13 expanded beads of blooms being counted at 

 one time on a plant, and not a poor one among them, all being of immense size." 50c each; 

 $6.00 per doz.; $35.00 per 100. 



NEW YORK 



Has the Orchid type of flower. They have much more substance than the flowers of 

 the other varieties of this class, and will stand the hot sanshine as well as the toughest 

 varieties of cannas. The color is ji solid rich scarlet covered with a beautiful glowing sheen. 

 The flowers are large and contrast beantifully with the dark bronze foliage. 50c each; 

 $5.00 per doz.: $35.00 per 100.
