Exhibition. 



In spite of the hot, dry weather, 

 there was a fine exhibition, which quite 

 filled the main exhibition hall at Horti- 

 cultural hall, August 19 and 20. Peren- 

 nial phloxes were largely shown by T. 

 (J. Thurlow's Sons, F. J. Bea, John K. 

 Alexander, William Whitman and 

 others. Gladioli were exceptionally 

 fine, some splendid novelties being 

 shown. George Page, gardener for Mrs. 

 Frederick Ayer, received a first-class 

 certificate for Gladiolus Kunderdi 

 (ilory. A similar award went to Mon- 

 tague Chamberlain for Niagara. The 

 latter exhibitor also showed a vase of 

 Rajah, a new seedling, the finest crim- 

 son scarlet seedling I have yet seen, 

 with flowers of immense size; awarded 

 a silver medal. Mr. Chamberlain had 

 many other fine varieties. John K. 

 Alexander was also an extensive ex- 

 hibitor of gladioli and his spikes were 

 excellent. 



William Thatcher, gardener for Mrs. 

 •T. L. Gardner, was the leading ex- 

 hibitor of annuals and secured first 

 j)rize for display of not less than lOO 

 bottles. W. P. Lothrop had an excel- 

 lent table of dahlias. He received a 

 first class certificate for Lothrop 's seed- 

 ling, an immense decorative of a red- 

 dish orange color. George Page had 

 a grand specimen of Nepenthes Mas- 

 tersii, also jdatyceriunis and Phoenix 

 Koebelenii. Mrs. E. M. Gill had a good 

 general display. M. Sullivan, gardener 

 for W. Whitman, had the finest aster 

 display. He also had a collection of 

 herbaceous plants.

i'arquhar & Co. were, as usual, the 

 leading exhibitors and put up a grand 

 display. Two long tables were filleil 

 with the superb Lilium leucanthemum, 

 one of the finest of all outdoor lilies. 

 They showed several new Wilson lilies, 

 which were awarded honorable men- 

 tion. Viola cornuta purpurea, much 

 darker in color than cornuta, is a grand 



addition and received a first-class cer- 

 tificate. They also had a new Delphi- 

 nium Farquhari, of an intense blue 

 color, and other novelties; also a big 

 display of phlox, Liliums auratym, 

 Batmanniff, speciosum, etc.; aconitums, 

 cheloues. rudbeckias and a host of 

 other flowers. The collection received 

 a >;ilver medal. An interesting feature
