The Weekly Florists* Re^^ew. 



June 17, 1909. 



LENOX, MASS. 



The regular meeting of the Lenox 

 Horticultural Society was held Saturday, 

 June 5, and was largely attended. Presi- 

 dent A. Jenkins was in the chair. J. 

 *, Cant, J. Green, W. McGregor and L. C. 

 Peters were elected active members. 



AfL exhibit on which special praise was 

 bestowed was a magnificent vase of extra 

 fine varieties of Odontoglossum crispum, 

 exhibited by A. J. Loveless. The flowers 

 were remarkable for their size and sub- 

 stance, some of the spikes being fully 

 three feet in length. They certainly re- 

 flect great credit upon the grower, and 

 were unanimously granted the society's 

 highest award, a first-class certificate and 

 cultural commendation. Mr. Loveless 

 gave a short talk on their culture, which 

 was greatly enjoyed by all present. 



E. Jenkins was awarded a diploma for 

 a fine vase of Golden West gladioli. 



We were all pleased to welcome back 

 George Foulsham, who has lately been 

 appointed to take charge of W. B. O. 

 field's estate at Lenox. Mr. Foulsham 

 gave an interesting description of his 

 sojourn .-it Savannah, Ga., and also spoke 

 of his recent visit to the Messrs. Charles- 

 worths' orchid nurseries, England.

 donated premiums toward our fall ex- 

 hibition: A. T. Boddington, E. & J.

Fairbuby, Neb. — The Fairbury Nur- 

 series, of which E. M. Hurlburt is pro- 

 prietor and C. M. Hurlburt manager, 

 plans to put up greenhouses to cover 

 7,500 square feet of ground. 



Meadville, Pa. — Geo. W. Haas & Son 

 say that trade for Decoration day came 

 with a rush, and the rush continued until 

 everything, both in plants and cut flow- 

 ers, had been sold out. Hydrangeas, 

 azaleas, gloxinias, geraniums, primroses, 

 and everything else in bloom, were sold 

 out. Carnations took the lead in cut 

 flowers. In all the firm 's thirty-five years 

 of business, no such run had ever before 

 been experienced.
