By William Scott 



SECOND EDITION 



THOROUGHLY REVISED AND 

 DROUGHT UP TO DATE 



NO SCIENCE, BUT LOTS OF 

 PRACTICAL COMMON SENSE 



"I have several times been consulted by those 

 who would make a beginning in the Florists' 

 business. In each case I have said that the first 

 step is to subscribe for a Trade Paper, and the 

 next to procure a copy of the Florists' Manual." 

 —J. A. Valentine, Pres. Park Floral Co., Den- 

 ver, Colo. 



"Find enclosed $5 for the Florists' Manual, by 

 William Scott. It is the best book of the age on 

 commercial floriculture and should be in the 

 home of every gardener."— Conrad Forbach, 

 Buffalo, N. Y. 



No dry-as-dust botanical classifications, but 

 tells you just how to produce marketable plants 

 and cut flowers in the best and cheapest way.
