The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



April 4, 1907. 



great run. In plants, Dutch hyacinths 

 were in greater demand than ever, sin- 

 gle varieties being the best sellers. 

 Crimson Kamblers went well, and so also 

 did azaleas, but spiraeas and hydrangeas 

 sold only fair. Some geranium in bloom 

 were favorites. Lilies were sold out, 

 being in short supply. 



The Florists' Club. 



Tuesday evening, March 26, the club 

 held its regular meeting in its rooms in 

 the Brent building, with President Ste- 

 phens in the chair. The committee on 

 the chrysanthemum show recommended 

 a schedule of prizes, which was ap- 

 proved. Perhaps the most important is- 

 sue the club has ever had to contend 

 with was reported by the committee on 

 children's gardens. As yet the board 

 of education has withheld permission to 

 distribute, as in past years, the penny 

 packets of flower and vegetable seeds to 

 the children of the public schools. With- 

 out this permission the home and school 

 garden moyement cannot go on. Owing 

 to the near approach of Easter, the flo- 

 ral display at this meeting was not so 

 large as usual. The awards were as fol- 

 lows: For a fine specimen Empress of 

 India azalea, I. D. Siebert received 

 twenty points, and K. A. Currie for 

 Hydrangea Otaksa, fifteen points. Our 

 next meeting will be April 9. 



Various Notes. 



Underwood Bros., at their Central 

 Market stand, had a large stock of 

 Easter plants, including especially aza- 

 leas, Dutch hyacinths and cinerarias. 



W. H. Schwartzwalder, a nurseryman 

 of Gallipolis, Ohio, will enter the pub- 

 lic competition and try to secure the 

 contract for furnishing and planting the 

 street trees needed by our city. 



The Franklin Park Floral Co. had an 

 elaborate Easter display for the general 

 public, Thursday, March 28. 



Axel C. Pharro Gagge, the landscape 

 architect who recently came here from 

 New York, will be married in that city 

 this week. His bride, Miss Edith Wes- 

 ton-Smith, comes from London, where 

 she has been studying landscape archi- 

 tecture at the Kew Botanic Garden. 



The Livingston Seed Co. furnished a 

 \-ery attractive display of palms, ferns 

 and other foliage plants for the formal 

 opening of the Livingston dry goods 

 ,ind department stores. Besides the 

 jilants a large quantity of cut stock was 

 used. 



John Brust has been bringing in some 

 most excellent plants of Primula ob- 

 lonica. 



Gustave Drobish has for some weeks 

 been disposing of great numbers of well- 

 l)loomed Crimson Kamblers at his mar- 

 ket stand. 



S. N. Kiner & Son are making an 

 especial push with street tree planting. 

 They furnish and plant maples and pop- 

 lars at from $1.50 to $5 each, accord- 

 ing to size, within the city limits. 



J. R. Hellenthal made a special effort 

 all Easter week to advertise his firm as 

 large handlers of carnations. His spe- 

 cial offer was 25 cents per dozen. No 

 wonder they were busy. Zero. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. 



This company has purchased four lots 

 on Seventh avenue and will erect a large 

 plant in addition to the plant in opera- 

 tion on Fifth avenue. Plans have been
