The Florists' Review 



Fbbbuart 19, 1914. 



scarce and most of this stock is coming 

 from the south. 



Various Notes. 



F. C. Smith is again attending to 

 business, after his recent illness. 



P. C. Richardson, of the Floral Market 

 Co., Seattle, visited Tacoma February 

 o, in the interests of his business. Upon 

 invitation, he gave a most instructive 

 talk before the Florists' Club, which 

 met in regular session that evening. 

 H. Benthien also read an interesting 

 paper on "The Past, Present and Fu- 

 ture of the Florists' Business in This 

 City." Mr. Milton, of the city parks 

 <?onservatory, was asked to tell the club 

 something about the park work at the 

 next meeting, March 5. 



The bowling team is keeping in trim 

 for any emergency which may arise. 



On a recent visit to the plant of Davies 

 & Goldsack, at Larchmont, the writer 

 found everything in excellent shape. In 

 three houses, planted to lettuce, the 

 orop is almost ready for market and 

 the product of a fourth house is now 

 being sold. Two smaller houses are 

 stocked with potted plants and rooted 

 cuttings. J. L. S. 



ASPARAGUS IN CALIFOBNIA. 



Wishing to save space in my lath 

 house, I am thinking of transplanting 

 my 6-months-old seedlings of Asparagus 

 Sprengeri and A. plumosus to the open 

 ground, under half shade. I am located 

 in southern California, in the latitude 

 of Los Angeles. The soil is a rich, 

 friable loam, well manured and with 

 "water on tap." Would the plants 

 make a good growth if so treated, and 

 would they transplant as well as from 

 potst J. E. W. 



The plants will make as good a growth 

 in summer outdoors in partial shade as 

 in a lath house. If ordinary care is 

 used in transplanting, they will not suf- 

 fer in the least. Asparagus plumosus 

 is even easier to move than A. Spren- 

 geri, though either can be moved with 

 perfect safety. H. B. R. 



WHITE FLY ON PELARGONIUMS. 



I am sending you a sample of pelar- 

 gonium leaves that have some white 

 flies on them. Kindly let me know 

 what to do to exterminate the pests. 



J. .T. 



The best remedy for white fly is 

 hydrocyanic acid gas. The insects you 

 sent were much alive when the box 

 was opened and they landed in the 

 furnace as quicklv as I could get them 

 there. ' W. J. K.
