Mention The Review when you wrltfc 



flower market recently vacated by them, 

 on satisfactory terms. 



John L. Porter, gardener to Charles 

 D. Sias, of Wenham, Mass., has a fine 

 golden yellow sport from Rose General 

 McArthur. The flower has a delightful 

 odor, suggestive of the old Marechal Niel, 

 The spines, so objectionable on General 

 McArthur, are lacking on the sport, 

 which proves a continuous winter bloomer. 

 Mr. Porter will devote a whole bench 

 to it next year. 



Dobbins & Shannon, of Wobum, are 

 marketing thousands of superb Princess 

 of Wales daily at their stand in Music 

 Hall Market No. 2. 



A party of friends gave J. W. Dun- 

 can a good send-oflf February 24 at the 

 South Terminal station on his way to 

 Spokane, Wash. 



Henry E. Comley, on Park street, al- 

 ways keeps one of the most attractive 

 and varied florists' windows in Boston. 

 If there are any rare or unique flowers, 

 Mr. Conley is sure to have them. He is 

 doing an excellent and increasing trade. 

 Mrs. Wilfrid Wheeler, of Concord, who 

 has been confined to a hospital for some 

 weeks, consequent on a serious operation, 

 is, we are glad to say, convalescent. 



J. H. Leach & Son, of North Easton, 

 have been picking quantities of sweet 

 peas since last October. They are having 

 great success with lily of the valley, 

 which is of fine quality. 



Peirce Bros., of Waverley, have their 

 usual big lot of lilies, azaleas and other 

 plants in fine shape for Easter. 



Miss Laura Dawson, daughter of Jack- 

 son Dawson, will be the lecturer at Hor- 

 ticultural hall, March 5, on "Horticul- 

 ture as a Vocation for Women." 



Edward MacMulkin, among his other 

 orchids, has some fine pieces of the pure 

 white form of Cattleya Triansej one plant 

 carried fourteen flowers. 



The bankruptcy of A. G. Lake, of 

 Wellesley Hills, referred to in last week's 

 Eeview, was due in large measure to the 

 heavy losses sustained on his fields of 

 asters for two successive years, smoke 

 from the Boston & Albany railroad ruin- 

 ing practically the entire crops. An ac- 

 tion is pending against the railroad and 

 will probably soon come to trial. 



L. E. Small, of Tewksbury, is making 

 quite a hit with Dimorphotheca auran- 

 tiaca. Everyone admires its deep orange 

 color. 



At the meeting of the Gardeners' and 

 Florists ' Club, March 22, A. E. Thatcher, 

 of the Arnold Arboretum, will read a 

 paper on "New and Desirable Hardy 

 Herbaceous Perennials. ' ' There promises 



Krick's Florist Novelties

Greene Ave., BROOKLYN, 



Mention The Review when you wrlte- 



N. Y. 



to be a large attendance at the Waverly 

 field day, March 19. 



A camellia house eighty- six feet in 

 length at the A. T. Lyman estate in 

 Waltham is a fine sight at present. There 

 are many fine specimens ten to twelve 

 feet high smothered with bloom. The 

 smllf ul head gardener, Walter Angus, has 

 the plants in fine shape. There is quite 

 a revival of interest in camellias in the 

 vicinity of Boston. 



The King Construction Co. has work 

 well advanced on one of C. E. Holbrow 's 

 new houses at Brighton and will be ready 

 to start on the second within a few days. 



The most scrutinized carnation at the 

 late show in Horticultural hall was the 

 new Wodenethe from Frank E. Witney, 

 gardener to Winthrop Sargent, Fishkill- 

 on-Hudson, N. Y. The flowers held in 

 fine shape until the end of the show. 

 This new white promises to put all exist- 

 ing varieties in the shade. 



W. N. Craig. 



Ansonia, Conn. — One of the boilers in 

 the Hotchkiss greenhouses was recently 

 rendered useless by a leak, but the stock 

 was saved by installing heating stoves, as 

 the weather was mild at the time. Be- 

 fore the arrival of the next cold snap, the 

 defective boiler had been replaced by a 

 new one. 



Beloit, Wis. — Building operations will 

 begin soon on a new greenhouse for 

 John Bindfleisch. It is to consist of 

 four sections, each 25x100, and in addi- 

 tion to this an oflSce, potting room and 

 boiler room will occupy a space 20x120 

 feet adjoining the greenhouse proper. 

 The estimated cost of the building will 

 be $6,000. 



ScRANTON, Pa. — Director of Public 

 Works C. V. Terwilliger and John 

 Cleland, who will donate a greenhouse to 

 this city, visited Nay Aug park, Satur- 

 day, February 19, and after a conference 

 with Superintendent of Parks Thomas 

 Phillips, decided upon the present site 

 of the deer park as the best location for 

 the greenhouse. The 'building is to be 

 130 feet long and will be of ornate 

 design.
