HENRY A. DRCER, lU Chestnut Street, Philadefphia, Pa. 



The above prioea are only for the trade, and not for the retail buyer. 



were excellent. The wholesale nursery- 

 men report excellent clearing out in all 

 departments. They nearly all had a 

 record season, and in a retail way the 

 trade has been equally good. There has 

 been another marked increase in the busi- 

 ness done in ornamental stock, especially 

 shrubs. Prices have averaged a little 

 aigher than last year. Buyers have been 

 iaore ready to pay the prices required 

 insure good stock. 



SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS. 



English Ivy. 



There are few things more easily dis- 

 )osed of than English ivy, and usually 

 he price obtained makes its cultivation 

 '8 profitable as most things grown. Eng- 

 ish ivy is seldom, if ever, in oversup- 

 »ly and perhaps the reason why so many 

 >lants are used is that private garden- 

 n are just finding out to what innum- 

 erable uses it can advantageously be 



put. Some ye.'irs ago this ivy was used 

 principally in the attempt to cover build- 

 ings and for cemetery work. Now there 

 are hundreds of thousands planted every 

 spring in border work and beds. 



Ivy will root much quicker in the 

 month of August than later. A good 

 method is to put all the cuttings ob- 

 tainable in frames to root during the 

 month stated. Root quickly as they will 

 then, they may be potted at leisure. It 

 will be found that cuttings put in in 

 September and October will not only take 

 much longer to root but will fail to 

 make as good stock eventually. When 

 cuttings are put in frames at the time 

 suggested shade will have to be provided 

 in the way of something movable, for 

 when the cuttings are soft they are eas- 

 ily damaged. 



Fcucgloves. 



Foxglove is one of the many good 

 things that will not flower the first year 

 from seed. Seed sown in spring will 



give good, strong plants for flowering 

 the following year. The seedlings, when 

 large enough to handle, should be trans- 

 planted with room enough for them to 

 grow into good, strong plants. A cover- 

 ing of leaves or strawy manure will pro- 

 tect tnem during the winter. Foxgloves 

 make a gorgeous appearance when in 

 bloom. They are especially effective 

 when planted in masses, but are none 

 the. less valuable for planting in the 

 hardy borders and in shrubberies. 



Hollyhocks. 



When possible, hollyhocks should be 

 grown in pots from the time they are 

 first moved out of the seed flats. They 

 are more easily handled when shipping, 

 and they give better satisfaction to cus- 

 tomers than plants lifted out of the open 

 ground or out of flats. Hollyhocks show- 

 ing signs of rust on the leaves should not 

 be sold or planted. If they are planted, 

 they will never amount to anything. 

 Hollyhock seed should be sown as soon
