SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS. 



Department of Plant Registration. 



Public notice is hereby given that 

 George Giatras, 463 Summit street, 

 West Hoboken, N. J., offers for regis- 

 tration the nephrolepis described below. 

 Any person objecting to the registra- 

 tion or to the use of the proposed name 

 is requested to communicate with the 

 secretary at once. Failing to receive 

 objection to the registration, the same 

 will be made three weeks from this 

 date. 



Kew York — Originated as a sport of Nephrolepis 

 Glatrasil; resembling this variety in its light 

 green color, but with long, gracefully recurving 

 fronds; in habit of growth like Bostoniensis, but 

 far more graceful.

LILACS FOR EASTER. 



How long does it take to get lilacs 

 in bloom for Easter, and what is the 

 best temperature for them? A. G. S. 



Place your lilac plants in a cool house 

 now; a temperature of 45 degrees at 

 night is sufficient. The cooler these are 

 grown, the better they will be. If given 

 60 degrees they will easily be in full 

 flower in six weeks, but by starting at 

 45 degrees, later giving 50 degrees, and, 

 as flowers open, giving the lower tem- 

 perature again, you will have plants 

 which will not wilt as do the hard 

 forced ones. You have ample time to 

 flower your plants if you start now.
