The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Obcbubbb 6, 1907. 



NEW ORLEANS. 



The Trade in the South. 



With the thermometer standing at 70 

 degrees at night, the craft, who usually 

 have considerable planting to do at this 

 time, are not very jubilant. Walking 

 through the beautiful Audubon park with 

 Superintendent Jules Fonta, I noted scar- 

 let geraniums, poinsettias, jasmines, and 

 the like, in full bloonl. 



Chrysanthemums are passing. A big 

 exhibition was held in Horticultural hall, 

 and among several varieties that were 

 new to- me were Miss Minnie Baisley, 

 Mlle^. Marie Lager and Fred Dormay. The 

 latter is of a soft creamy shade. 



Among foliage plants Pandanus San- 

 deri gives much satisfaction, as it holds 

 its color well and is far superior to 

 Veitchii, which bleaches out during the 

 hot months. In cannas. King Humbert 

 is the best yet introduced. The grand 

 specimens of Araucaria Bidwillii and 

 Cedrus Deodara, so much admired, will 

 not be disturbed in the improvements be- 

 ing made. 



A wave of rebuilding and overhauling 

 has swept over the city. There is scarcely 

 one member of the craft who has not 

 made some change of late. The trade 

 looks healthy and progressive, from the 

 handsome ranges of glass owned by 

 Ha»ry Papworth and U. J. Virgin to the 

 pansy frames of the more modest crafts- 

 men. They are up to date. Mr. Virgin 

 proved this one evening when he had an 

 immense floral horseshoe to deliver. A 

 band was passing; out to the front went 

 the colored deUveryman, holding aloft 

 the floral piece, amid the cheers of the 

 crowd. 



M. Cook's Sons have just completed 

 a forcing house, 16x48, heated with a 

 Hitchings boiler that works like a charm. 



Sweet olives, Magnolia fuscata and 

 aspidistras are grown here in quantity. 

 George Thomas says that the Washing- 

 tonia Sonora, Phoenix Canariensis and 

 Chamserops macrocarpa are away ahead 

 of any other palm for this climate, Cycas 

 circinalis needs protection. A splendid 

 specimen, with a spread of twenty feet, 

 planted by Superintendent Fonta in Hor- 

 ticultural hall eighteen years ago, has 

 never lost a leaf. W.
