The Florists' Review 



Apbil 30, 1914. 



FB^NCH HYDRANGEAS IN FIELD. 



Can 2% -inch plants of the new 

 French hydrangeas be grown on in the 

 field as can the old variety, Otaksaf 

 How should they be treated when in 

 the greenhouse f J. P. M. 



Yes, the new French hydrangeas can 

 be planted out in the field when danger 

 from frost has passed, and they should 

 be treated in just the same way as the 

 old H. Otaksa. Their greenhouse treat- 

 ment does not differ in any essentials 

 from that of H. Otaksa. These new 

 hydrangeas do not have quite so much 

 substance in their foliage as H. Otaksa. 

 They are, however, far more florifer- 

 ous, the smallest shoots flowering. 

 They require a good soil, firm potting, 

 an abundance of water and liberal 

 feeding when once the flower heads 

 are formed. These are the essentials 

 to successful culture. C. W. 



BEPLANTINa SPBENQEBI. 



I have a lot of Asparagus .Sprengeri 

 which has been in the bench for one 

 year. Would it do well if replanted? 

 If so, should it be dried off a little t 



J. 0. C. 



Asparagus Sprengeri may be re- 



Elanted after having been grown in a 

 ench for one year, and in case this 

 method is adopted it would be best to 

 dry it off to some extent before mov- 

 ing it to the new soil. However, most 

 growers prefer to plant young stock 

 rather than to replant the old plants; 

 the young plants start away more 

 freely and give a better crop of me- 

 dium-sized sprays. W. H. T. 



AMERICAN ROSE SOCIETY. 



At the last meeting of the executive 

 committee of the American Bose So- 

 ciety there was referred to the com- 

 mittee on new roses application for 

 registration for the following, and 

 which have been now submitted for 

 the purpose of publicity. If there are 

 no objections to the names as received 

 they will be formally entered upon the 

 list of registered roses: 



Geerge Burton, Wyndmoor, Pa., presents for 

 registration Rose Tbora, a sport of My Maryland; 

 a fragrant, double, free-flowering, fairly deep 

 salmon pink, and a strong grower. 



Edward Kress, Baltimore, Md., offers for regis- 

 tration Rose Defiance, a cross between Oruss an 

 Teplitz and Etolle de France; flowers fragrant, 

 dark velvet red, perfectly double, and five to six 

 inches across; dark green foliage, hardy and free 

 ever-bloomer; Introducer bas never seen it mil- 

 dew. 



Benj. Hammond, Sec'y. 



South Lyon, Mich. — A hanging bas- 

 ket in the £;reenhou8e of Walter E. 

 Hastings was chosen as a nesting site 

 by a couple of song sparrows this 

 spring, and six eggs give promise of a 

 good song sparrow family.

GREENHOUSE SHADINO 



No. 6 HiKh Stroot. MORRItTOWN, N. J. 



AFTER twenty-flve years* experience In Green- 

 houae work, with Loid A Burnbam Company. 

 In the KlazinK and painting department, I am 

 conTlnced that what Is moet needed In this line la a 

 good shading, and I am pleased to advise you that I 

 have the real thing, which I am sure you will find to 

 be Just what yon are looking for. 



Tills BtiadinK Is beneficial to the painted wood, as 

 it does not contain any gasoline or naphtha which 

 would destroy the paint. In addition. It Is beneficial 

 to the glass also, for you will find that when the 

 sliadlng is removed the glass retains Its former 

 brilliancy. 



As to its application, this is a very easy matter. It 

 can be either sprayed on or put on with a soft brush. 

 For real good work, however, I would recommend 

 the use of a soft brush. 



Another advantage of this shading is that when It 

 Is no longer needed, it can tie removed without any 

 difficulty, leaving the glass, as t>efore stated, with its 

 original brilliancy. 



I am making this up In gallon cans. In three 

 shades— light green, light blue and pure white. 

 When ordering, kindly mention the color desired. 



I trust ttiat yon will kindly favor me with a trial 

 order to prove its worth, after which I have no doubt 

 whatever but that you will continue its use.
