The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Mabch 21, 1907. 



Iff you want to kill Scale on your plants absolutoly, 

 there is only one preparation -^ 



WILSON'S PIANT OIL 



Take a can of this preparation, dilute to four times its bulk with water, and wash or spray 



your palms, ferns, aspidistras, smilax, or any plants subject to scale, bugs or vermin and 



YOUR PLANTS WILL BE CLEAN. One of the greatest discoveries of modem times. 



NO ALKALI. NOTHING DELETERIOUS. DRIES AT ONCE. Saves many a dollar 



for you, Mr. Florist. Did you ever see any of these testimonials attached to an article 



that was not good. 



READ WHAT OTHERS SAY OF IT: 



iLUNOis State Pexitkntiary, Joliet, Ii^l., Nov. 14. 1906. 

 Dear Sir : — Tour Plant Oil arrived, and tried, and one applica- 

 tion did the work. Something I have been looking for— for years. 

 It's sure and no injury to the plants. 



Very truly yours. W. M. TIPLADY, Florist. 



Milwaukee, Wis. 

 Dear Sir : — At the present time we are using your Plant Oil at 

 our greenhouses, and thus far it has given good satisfaction and we 

 shall continue to use it. Yours truly, HOLTON & HUNKEL. 



Rutherford, N. J., Jane 28, 1906. 



We have thoroughly tried your Plant Oil with very striking 



results. We may say this is the first insecticide we have tried on 



our palms that will remove the scale with the first application. We 



would like to say this is one of the few things that the florist can- 



not afford to be without, especially those who are growing palms 

 and decorative plants. After one application of the oil the plants 

 take on an entirely new appearance. We would be pleased to have 

 prospective buyers visit our nurseries and inspect the palms on 

 which we have used your oil. fiOBBlNK & ATKINS. 



New York Botanical Garden, Bronx Park, 



New York City, Sept. 5. 1906. 

 Having used your insecticide here, I can testify to its efHciency 

 in destroying scale and other insects infesting plants. 



Yours very truly, GEO. A. SKENE. 



Fi/)RHAM P"ARMS, Madison, N. J., Dec. 8, 1906. 

 Your Plant Oil is certainly the most effective scale killer I have 

 ever tried. Please send another five gallons. 



Yours truly, A. HEBRINGTON. 



PRICES: }i pint cans, 86c; pint, 40c; quart, 76c; 2 qnarts, $1.26;

PANCRATIUM MARITIMUM. 



The instance of this splendid bulb re- 

 maining so much of a rarity after 300 

 years' cultivation is an example of what 

 one loses in the race for novelties, few 

 of which are the equal of old-time bulbs 

 grown so well by our forefathers, says a 

 writer in the Gardeners' Magazine. 



"The greatest charm of Pancratium 

 maritimum lies in its exquisite refine- 

 ment — a character that can always be 

 welcomed in preference to gaudy coloring, 

 because so few plants possess it. I have 

 met with isolated patches in several parts 

 of Great Britain, chiefly in the gardens 

 of specialists, and well believe it to be 

 hardy everywhere, provided it has the 

 driest and warmest position the garden 

 affords. It has a glaucous tuft of leaves, 

 handsome as such, two feet high and 

 through, and in the autumn produces 

 showy umbels of pure white flowers, semi- 

 transparent, and a marvel of delicate 

 texture. The flowers span from three to 

 four inches, and have slender petals, 

 prominent funnel-shaped staminal cups 

 that support very short stamens, and 

 their fragrance is exceptionally sweet."
