Hambro, is sending in fine George S. 

 Kalb, October Frost, Pacific, Polly Rose 

 and Golden Glow mums, also excellent 

 Killarney and White Killarney.

 his flowers at 2 Park street. 



J. Newman & Sons, at their Tremont 

 street store, have a fine orchid display 

 this week, including Iselias, cattieyas, 

 cypripediums and vandas, also a fine 

 line of chrysanthemums and foliage 

 plants. 



"Vincent Fenvia, of South Sudbury, 

 ■who is operating the Williams Green- 

 houses, is shipping excellent carnations 

 to J. M. Cohen, at 2 Park street. The 

 latter is handling an immense cut of 



mums from Mishawum Greenhouses, J. 

 Leach & Son and Mr. Phelps, of Marl- 

 boro. 



George W. Ayer, of Reading, at 2 

 Park street has some of the best Pink 

 Delight, Winsor, Beacon and White En- 

 chantress carnations seen this season. 

 He is growing them in addition to vio- 

 lets, which are his specialty. 



Thomas Cox, of Dorchester, at 2 Park 

 street has some of the best George S. 

 Kalb chrysanthemums of the season. 



William McGillivray returned Oc- 

 tober 8 from his European trip. Alex- 

 ander McKay took charge of the West 

 Roxbury greenhouses during his ab- 

 sence. 



Henry R. Comley, on Park street, is 

 showing some nice little plants of the 



white Campanula isophylla, an excel- 

 lent plant for florists; also Crassula 

 PortulacesB and a fine lot of Eurya 

 latifolia variegata. Mr. Comley has a

 held in Mechanics' building. 



Everett Cummings, of Woburn, is on 

 hand with the best violets seen so far 

 this season, at 2 Park street. 



W. N. Craig. 



Penn the Florist, on Bromfield street, 

 says trade has been quite brisk with 

 them, there having been a large sale for 

 high class flowers, such as Beauties, 

 gardenias, valley and orchids. They had 

 the decorations for the Gannon-Arm- 

 strong wedding October 6, at Meredith, 

 N. H., and had a crew up there for two 

 days. The new store front is nearing 

 completion, and when finished promises 

 to be one of the handsomest in town. 



NAME OF COLEUS. 



I am sending some leaves of a coleus, 

 of which I have a few thousand cut- 

 tings, but I do not know the name of 

 it. It is an excellent bedder, of bright 

 color and with ragged edges. Few of 

 the plants ever seed. This summer we 

 did not have one plant go to seed, but 

 for bedding we have not found its 

 equal. We would be pleased if you could 

 tell us the name of it. C. A. M. 



This is quite a unique coleus, one 

 which I do not remember having seen 

 before. If this beds out well you have 

 certainly got a good thing. Would sug- 

 gest Delight as an appropriate name 

 for it. C. W.
