The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



^ 



Jdne 17, 1909. 



UTICA, N. Y. 



A visit to the beautiful home of the 

 veteran Peter Crowe, on Genesee street, 

 is an inspiration. Over twenty-two acres 

 of woodland, field and lawn are here com- 

 bined in as complete a residence and sur- 

 roundings as one could wish to see. The 

 big house has lately been thoroughly re- 

 furnished with every modern convenience. 

 Here, with wife, daughter and grandchil- 

 dren, the good-natured and genial 250- 

 pounder is enjoying, as he puts it, the 

 happiest years of his eventful life. He 

 is a young man yet — only 67. 



This is the home of Adiantum Crowe- 

 anum. Nine houses are devoted to its 

 production. Many thousands are shipped 

 daily to New York, and also to Boston, 

 Rochester, Buffalo, Detroit, Syracuse and 

 Chicago. The popularity of this fern 

 constantly increases. 



Mr. Crowe still grows a few roses, for 

 his own and his friends' gratification, 

 and his hand has not lost its cunning. 

 White Killarney he considers the great- 

 est find of the century. Mr. and Mrs. 

 Crowe will attend the twenty-fifth anni- 

 versary of the S. A. F. at Cincinnati. 



Business in Utica is in a generally 

 flourishing condition, with conservatism 

 marked and no new building for this 

 year projected. 



Frank Baker has a handsome store, 

 with greenhouse connections on Court 

 street. He has been elected president 

 of the city 's common council, and is mak- 

 ing a fine record. The list of florists in 

 Utica numbers about thirty. 



Tlie regular monthly club meetings are 

 held at the homes of the members in 

 rotation. In Dr. Eoland's office, the 

 doctor being a practical florist, a meet- 

 ing was held June 9, and members from 

 Eome, Ilion, Herkimer, Little Falls and 

 Clinton attended. A clam bake and out- 

 ing were discussed and a fall flower 

 show was projected. The club is setting 

 a good pace for such organizations every- 

 where to follow. 



Brant Bros., who rented the rose houses 

 owned by Peter Crowe, fifteen in num- 

 ber and covering some 65,000 square feet 

 on Sunset and Mildred avenues, have 

 added, on their own ground adjoining, 

 six large houses, each 20x150, all con- 

 nected, for the growing of carnations. 

 This gives them a total glass area of 

 about 100,000 square feet. The members 

 of the firm were formerly residents of 

 Madison, N. J., and are nephews of the 

 late L. M. Noe, of that city. Their out- 

 put is handled by Moore, Hentz & Nash, 

 in New York city. They grow Brides, 

 Maids and Killarney and all the popular 

 new carnations. They are young men of 

 sterling character and should make of 

 this enterprise, ultimately, a great suc- 

 cess. J. A. Shaw.
