The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Januabt 0, 1908. 



RAMBLING JOTTINGS. 



The Hoffmeister Floral Co., at Lick 

 Run, Cincinnati, O., has a sport from 

 Enchantress of the color of Lawson at 

 its best. Growing in a house of En- 

 chantress, both white and pink, it is 

 identical in every way except color, and 

 as this firm is very successful with this 

 variety, we can look for a really good 

 thing in the near future. As with other 

 growers, there was complaint here of 

 the dull weather preceding the holidays, 

 which helped shorten the supply of 

 roses and carnations. It seems the pres- 

 ence of old Sol is absolutely necessary 

 to assist the anxious grower in giving 

 the retailer the goods just when needed. 



"When in the Queen City recently I saw 

 the only Kellar produce an immense 

 bouquet of Killarneys from seed sown 

 but a few moments, and as he declares 

 his intention of retiring from the stage, 

 he may devote his attention to the magic 

 production of the queen of flowers, in 

 which case Burbank will be eclipsed and 

 the problem of shortage, just when it 

 should be the reverse, will be solved. 



J, B. Heiss, of Dayton, O., was not 

 to be outdone by the shortage and high 

 prices of the real article, and so he 

 adopted the novel idea of combining the 

 artificial with the natural by inserting 

 artificial flowers into natural plants. 

 Orchids especially were treated in this 

 way and sold quickly. The deception 

 was explained and accepted by the pur- 

 chaser. 



At H. H. Ritter's store, in Dayton, 

 Mr. Ritter himself was in charge when 

 I called, his son, William, having been 

 dispatched to Tippecanoe with a large 

 order executed on short notice and re- 

 ceived from J. H. Small & Sons, of New 

 York city. One piece was a casket pall, 

 which was beautifully executed. 



W. W. Horlacher, of Dayton, was at 

 work on a large flat bouquet composed 

 of bronze leucothoe sprays, with Bride 

 roses and Roman hyacinths, one of sev- 

 eral handsome pieces being sent out. 



John Boehner, of Dayton, says "one 

 cannot have the cake and eat it at the 

 same, time, ' ' meaning by this that he has 

 sold a tract of land for building lots 

 and in consequence is restricted for space 

 to grow flowers outside. He has a large 

 cemetery business. 



H. Haerlin, Jr., head gardener at the 

 Soldiers' Home, is planning some new- 

 features in landscape work and asks 

 for information bearing on the point, es- 

 pecially with reference to new plants and 

 shrubs. W.
