The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Jolt 4, 1907. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



Current G>tnment. 



Summer conditions now prevail, al- 

 though trade in all lines has been re- 

 markably good. Benching mums is the 

 order of the day. 



The picnic held June 26 at Willow- 

 mere, on invitation of Frank Harritt, 

 was an enjoyable affair, for the location 

 is an ideal place for such a gathering. 

 Mr, Harrit spared no pains to make all 

 welcome and to provide a good time. 

 Willowmere is just being brought into 

 control and Mr. Harritt has a busy time 

 before him before his plans are all car- 

 ried out. For the short time he has been 

 on the place he has worked wonders and 

 has a world of hardy stuff planted. He 

 is now making a pond to grow aquatics. 

 Willowmere is located on the Rushville 

 traction line about eight miles from the 

 city. 



Homer Wiegand is putting in his 

 time solving the mysteries of installing 

 a successful heating plant. 



E. A. Nelson is experimenting with 

 a railroad of his own to empty and fill 

 the benches. 



Several of the local craft are talking 

 of the trip to Philadelphia in August 

 and planning side trips. This should be 

 the banner year for the S. A. F. S. 



MANCHESTER, MASS. 



The rose show of the North Shore 

 Horticultural Society will be held July 

 10 and 11, on the grounds of the Essex 

 County Club, Manchester. 



At the last meeting of this society, 

 Eric Wetterlow showed a fine collection 

 of cut blooms of gloxinias, arranged 

 with maidenhair ferns. James Scott had 

 a table of rhododendrons, Xanthorrhiza 

 lorbifolia, and anemones. James Mc- 

 Gregor had a collection of German and 

 Spanish iris, and William Till a collec- 

 tion of perennial lupines. W. T. 



Austin, Tex. — E. Friedrich is build- 

 ing another greenhouse, so as to be able 

 to supply -the increasing demand for 

 ferns, begonias, geraniums, etc. 



Portland, Ind. — During the wind 

 storm of Sunday night, June 23, the 

 framework for the new greenhouses be- 

 ing erected by Frank & Sons was blown 

 down. The timbers in several places 

 were thrown against the present houses 

 and some glass was broken. The dam- 

 age will not be great.

Record broken by Godfrey Aschmano, of Philadelphia, the 

 well-known Araucaria Specialist of America. 



Watch Us Grow 



1907 is our 12th anniversary in a succeBSful career in the importa- 

 tion, growinK and shipping of that well-known and well-admired 

 evergreen decorative plant, 



Araucaria Excelsa, Compacta Robusta and Glauca. 



Beginning ultb the first year, 1896, with an importation of 100, this Spring, 1907. our importation 

 has swollen to tbe enormous quantity of 6000 of the 3 best known ARAUCARIA8, Excelsa, 

 Uompacta Robusta and Glauca. Our Araucarias are bo well introduced that they represent every 

 city, county and state of America, from the Atlantic to the Pacific and as far as Cuba and Mexico. 

 It is always my earnest desire to improve my system in buying, raising, selling and shipping our 

 production to such an extent that it not only benefits us but so that it will yield a fair profit into tbe 

 pockets of the buyers. 



Now is the time to fill your empty bouses and make money fast, as tbe plants will grow into 

 money while you sleep.
