The Florists' Review 



October 27, 1921 



crs' Association to be held at the Hotel 

 Bellevue October 29 at 6:30 o'clock. 

 Matters of great importance will como 

 up and every grower is urged to be in 

 attendance. 



J. T. Butterworth, of Framingham, is 

 cutting a grand lot of Cattleya labiata 

 at present, also Oncidium incurvum, 

 oypripediums, including some wonderful 

 blooms of Harefield Hall, Dendrobiuni 

 infundijjulum, phalaenopsis, etc. A neat 

 oflSce is attached to his new curved-eave 

 house, being completed by Hitchings & 

 Co. 

 , Peter Fisher, at Ellis, has just in- 

 stalled a new Sturtevant blower, which 

 will enable him to materially reduce 

 his coal bill. Ho has a large house of 

 Comet and Victory tomatoes, from which 

 he will soon start to pick, also cucum- 

 bers. His plantings of carnations are 

 all looking well. 



Complaints are general this season 

 of a great deal of stem-rot and branch- 

 rot on carnations. Some growers have 

 lost thousands of plants. The extremely 

 dry June and wet, warm July are be- 

 lieved to be largely responsible for this 

 trouble, from which no variety seems to' 

 be entirely imiriune. 



Peter Pederzini, of Medfield, is send- 

 ing in an extra fine lot of Chrysanthe- 

 mum Pacific Supreme to W. A. Hastings. 



The warm, dry, frostless fall has been 

 hard on violets and violet growers. The 

 season has been so warm that growers 

 have found it necessary to house their 

 plants before they have been subjected 

 to one or two freezes, which check the 

 exuberant leaf growth. Under glass the 

 warm weather has started an active leaf 

 growth and this is always at the expense 

 of flowers. Specialists are certain that 

 their crop the coming season will be a 

 discouraging one, as it was a year ago 

 from similar causes. 



Thomas Pegler, of Lewiston, Me., at- 

 tended the Flower Exchange dinner 

 October 22 and his many friends were 

 pleased to see him looking so hale and 

 hearty, 



California-grown bulbs of Iris tingi- 

 tana and filifolia are being grown at 

 a number • of . establishments here 

 this season and so far look promising. 

 I. tingitana with J. K. Chandler & Sons, 

 Tewksbury, is already showing buds 

 quite prominently. W. N. C. 



Argos, Ind. — J. L. Ehoads is engaged 

 in the flower, plant and shrub business.
