Qub Meeting. 



The meeting of the Florists' Club, 

 March 12, -was attended by twenty mem- 

 bers. Vice-president George Angermueller 

 occupied the chair. 



This was the yearly rose show meeting, 

 but, owing to the spring exhibition on 

 the same day, the only exhibitors were 

 •T. P. Ammann, of Edwardsville, and 

 E. W. Guy, of Belleville. The exhibits 

 were judged by Messrs. Dunford, Fill- 

 more and Halstead, who highly com- 

 mended Mr. Ammann for Chatenay, 

 Ivory, Moulton, Richmond and Maid;

 The committee on pottery reported prog- 

 ress and stated that the subscription 

 lists, at any of the wholesale houses, will 

 be open until May 14. 



The trustees reported having engaged 

 Bowman's hall, at Eleventh and Locust 

 streets, for future meetings. 



The question of holding a flower show 

 this fall will be taken up at the meeting 

 Thursday afternoon, April 9. 



Spring Flower Show. 



The second annual spring flower show 

 by the St. Louis Horticultural Society 

 opened March 10 and continued three 

 days. The exhibition was given in the 

 large banquet room in the Masonic Tem- 

 ple, the hall being well filled with fine 

 stock. 



The cut blooms of roses, carnations, 

 violets and bulbous stock were exception- 

 ally good. In made-up work the only 

 prizes were for baskets and the only ex- 



hibitor was Fred H. Weber, who had 

 three baskets. Some splendid exhibits 

 were made, not for competition. These 

 were by Fred C. Weber, whose work was 

 a special attraction; Theo. Miller and 

 Chas. Beyer. 



George A. Kuhl, Pekin, and Vaughan's 

 Greenhouses, Western Springs, 111., made 

 plant exhibits. C. C. Sanders, H. Weber 

 & Sons and Emil Rotenhoefer made at- 

 tractive displays of nursery stock. 



Peter Reinberg's roses came a day late 

 for competition, but were staged by the 

 management and added greatly to the 

 show. J. F. Ammann 's roses attracted 

 the rose growers, all being fine, especially 

 the Alice Roosevelt and Rhea Reid. 



The attendance is reported satisfactory, 

 but of course was not so large as last 

 year, when the public was admitted free. 



The judges were Robert F. Tesson, 

 Alex Waldbart and A. Meyer, Sr. The 

 awards follow:

 Sons first, Koenig Floral Co. second, George B.
