The Weekly Florists' Review. 



4S 



t'The Kenilworth Strain ' of Giant Pansy Seed 



Must not be cominred with the Oimsy Trimardeau 





It is much larger and of good substance ; the immense flowers, of 3>^ to 4 inches, are of perfect form, and every 

 tint and shade is produced in striking combinations and endless variations of beautiful colors and markings. It is the 

 result of years of selections The Stock Plants are taken from many thousands of plants grown for the market. It is 

 rich with shades of brown, bronze, red, mahogany and many others too numerous to mention. Light, Medium or 

 Dark Mixtures, also a fine mixture of Red sliades.

tion to the selling of souvenirs, which 

 was a profitable line of business. 



Roses are quite poor, because of the 

 hot spell, and come into the market 

 almost wide open. There are a few 

 exceptions, however. Wards are some- 

 what small, but are good. Tafts, too, 

 are fairly good, but Kichmonds are of 

 no use. Beauties stand the heat best 

 of alL roses, because of their lasting 

 qualities, but the color is a little faded. 

 Carnations are small and weak-stemmed; 

 yet there are a few large ones left. 

 Sweet peas are not especially good and 

 have short stems. Harrisii lilies are 

 plentiful and good. Gladioli are com- 

 ing into the market now and are good, 

 large stalks. Valley is good and is 

 high in price. There is little demand 

 for orchids. Garden flowers are poor, 

 because of the drought. Gloxinias are 

 coming better now and they are about 

 the om^ potted plants in bloom. 



In the latter part of the week there 

 was a great scarcity of cut flowers.
