dogwood, hydrangeas and roses. The 

 list of June weddings in the society 

 columns of the big dailies is an inspira- 

 tion. The outlook for the florists is 

 roseate, for there are enough of these 

 interesting functions listed to give every 

 retailer his share. Young & Nugent had 

 a brilliant affair, at Tuxedo, last week. 

 Out of town weddings are many and 

 New York retailers get them all, or 

 nearly all. 



Andrew Wilson, of Summit, N. .L, 

 had a beauty last week. Mr. Wilson has 

 the only retail store in Summit and does 

 a large local trade, in addition to his 

 plant oil manufacture. Of the latter he 

 sends out quantities daily, all the large 

 growers using it and orders for as high 

 as 100 gallons at a time being received. 



Frank McVaugh has rented the Bin- 

 sted place, at Summit, N. J., next to 

 the plant of John N. May. He will 

 devote the three houses to carnations. 



Down at C. H. Totty's I found that 

 genial chrysanthemum expert over- 

 whelmed with orders and shipments and 

 sending out his novelties to every part 

 of the continent and to the Orient as 

 well. His rose stock is also superb and 

 there is no limit to the growing demand 

 for his specialties. 



Next door, Bobby Schultz was putting 

 the -old Hart place in shape for his 

 expert rose culture and completing his 

 planting as rapidly as the backward 

 season will allow. Evidences of adept 

 cultivation of the grape may always be 

 depended on here. 



A glimpse of Arthur Herrington in- 

 dicated an additional avoirdupois that 

 speaks volumes for his celery and other 

 products and for the success of his new- 

 enterprises. 



For mutual protection an association 

 of the principal plant growers in and 

 around New York has been formed and 

 incorporated with its office in New York 



City, to be known as the New York and 

 New Jersey Association of Plant Grow- 

 ers. The directors include A. L. Miller 

 and John Scott, of Brooklyn; Louis 

 Dupuy, of Whitestone; H. D. Darling- 

 ton, of Flushing; H. Schoeltzel, of New 

 Durham, with the following officers : 

 President, Anton Schultheis, of College 

 Point; vice-president, F. L. Atkins,

certainly does the work. Good stock 

 to advertise and a good paper to 

 advertise it in makes good business. 

 Respectfully yours,

Rutherford; secretary, W. H. Siebrecht, 

 Jr., Astoria; treasurer, H. C. Steinhoff, 

 West Hoboken. With such a firm foun- 

 dation as the above names indicate the 

 success of the society seems assured. 



On Wednesday, June 5, Mr. and Mrs. 

 W. H. Siebrecht, of Astoria, sailed for 

 a three months' trip in Europe, devot- 



ing most of their holiday to Germany, 

 Holland and Switzerland. 



Some of the politicians are in trouble 

 over Bronx park revelations and there 

 is considerable adverse criticism over 

 the abuse of patronage. 



On July 2, the date of the New York 

 Florists' Club's outing, Mr. and Mrs. 

 Anton Schultheis, of College Point, will 

 sail for Europe for their annual holiday. 

 Others of Mr. Schultheis' family will 

 accompany him. 



Reed & Keller's latest novelty is called 

 cape cloth and is a great convenience 

 for florists who use cape flowers as a 

 background for lettering. The cape 

 flowers are attached to a special kind 

 of prepared cloth and this can be cut in 

 any size that is desired. If Mr. Reed 

 discovers and patents perpetual motion, 

 no one who knows him will be greatly 

 surprised. 



Isaac Isaacs, of Twenty-eighth street 

 and Eighth avenue, was the only florist 

 to win a prize in the work-horse parade 

 Decoration day. 



John Seligman & Co. are making roses 

 a specialty, having added lately some 

 expert growers to their shipping force. 

 Mrs. Seligman also manifested interest 

 in her husband's prosperity and added 

 last week an American Beauty to the 

 assets of the firm. Mother and daughter 

 are doing well. 



Samuel A. Woodrow has decided to 

 undertake the wholesale palm business 

 on his own account and has located at 

 .53 West Thirtieth street. Mr. Woodrow 

 has had some ten years' experience with 

 palms and plants, having been assistant 

 gardener at J. J. Astor 's private place 

 at Rhinebeck and assistant foreman at 

 Charles Stewart Smith's place at Stam- 

 ford, Conn. Later he has been asso- 

 ciated with William Starke, of West 

 Twenty-ninth street.
