which proved popular, the variety Haer- 

 cnsiana being especially well liked. 



The Haerens Co. is composed of John 

 B. Haerens and Henry Wille. They 

 produce principally azaleas, araucarias, 

 bay trees, palms, etc., for the American 

 trade and have built up a large business, 

 necessitating annual additions to their 

 plant. H. Frank Darrow, their Ameri- 

 can representative, who recently returned 

 to New York after a visit to Europe, 

 says that the Haerens Co. will this year 

 add several large palm houses. Azaleas 

 are grown in great numbers and, a point 

 of special interest, are kept in the best 

 of condition by the application of liberal 

 supplies of water by means of an Ameri- 

 can device, the Skinner system of me- 

 chanical watering, the pipes running the 

 entire length of their fields. They also 

 have the sprinkling system in the houses 

 and are well pleased with it. Some new 

 varieties of azaleas are of special inter- 

 est, having gained certificates of merit 

 at the Ghent expositions, and will soon 

 be sent to America. Among them are 

 some fine white sorts for Easter and some 

 early-flowering pink varieties for Christ- 

 mas. One block which pleased Mr. Dar- 

 row particularly contained 20,000 plants 

 of Ardisia crcnulata. He says they were 

 the finest lot he ever saw. A number are 

 being grown three and four plants in a 

 large pot or tub and will make a fine 

 display when berried.

Two Grand Novelties for 1 908 



Fcf^hcrhnltTlA flitintv fllioon we faave the greatest pleasure in beln? able 

 l-»l>ll9MIUII.£ia Uainiy yueCII ^^ introduce this exduielte new color In 

 Eschscholtzlas. It is so delicate and atrikln jr that we are certain It will excite universal 

 admlratioo, especially with the iHdleH, and become one of the greatest favorites nf this 

 cliarmlng race of our new Improved compact Calif ornlan" Popples. It is almost Impossible to 

 adequately describe Its soft and delicate shades of color, but we are having a plate prepared 

 which we thlnk'wlU do justice to Its beauty. 



The color Is a tender blush, or pale coral pink, slightly deeper toward the edges, with a 

 groundwork of delicate cream, and like Intus Rosea, our Introduction of two years ago, the 

 petals are quite the same culor Inside as outside, so that the color effect is the same when 

 the flower is open as when closed— a quite unusual point In all other Eschscholtzlas. 



It has the same upright, compact habit as Eschscholtzla Intus Rosea, forming a small, 

 compact bush, very free blooming, with the flowers standing well above the bright green 

 foliage, which glvea It a singularly attractive appearance for bedding or massing. '

 ^JUUClia V^rilllSUII ^JIUVV sought after when once known. It forms a 

 compact little bush about a Inches In height, completely smothered with flowers of the most 

 dazzling, intense crimson. A bed of this variety produces a vivid effect, the Intensity of 

 which It Is Impossible to describe. We are having a plate prepared, which will perhaps con- 

 vey some Idea of Its splendid color, but to be fully appreciated. It must l>e seen growing. 

 In habit It resembles our Godetla Sunset, which is without doubt the most compact In habit 

 and most free blooming Godetla yet Intrcduced.
