The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Mabch 11, 1909. 



NURSERY NEWS. 



AHEBICAN ASSOCIATION OF MUBSEBYHEN. 



OfflcerB for 1908 9: Pres., Charles J. Brown, Ro- 

 cbester. N. Y.; Vlce-Pres., 0. M. Hobbs. Bridge- 

 port, Ind.; Sec'y, Geo. 0. Seager, KocheBter. 

 N. ¥.; Treas.. G. L. Yates. Rochester, N. Y. The 

 84tb annual convention will be held at Roches- 

 ter, June, 1909. 



W. B. Cole, Painesville, O., is making 

 many improvements in his nursery, in- 

 cluding electric lights. 



About all the cheap surplus lists have 

 been called in; even Kieffer pear is 

 being held for fair prices. 



W. M. BoNNEWELii and Earl Cooper 

 have bought a tract of land at Hastings, 

 Neb., and will engage in the retail and 

 wholesale nursery business. 



The Phillips Nursery Co. has been in- 

 corporated at Rochester, N. Y., with a 

 capital of $5,000. The incorporators 

 are Harry Bartlett Phillips, Rochester; 

 J. Chester Johnson, Englewood, N. J., 

 and Henry E. Gaudy, 276 Bleecker street, 

 New York. 



The "Wooster Nursery Co., Wooster, O., 

 is sending out a new 32-page catalogue. 

 The nursery has a town office at 40 

 South Market street, and its farm is lo- 

 cated just east of the Experiment Sta- 

 tion. T. E. Ewing is president and gen- 

 eral manager, and Stephen Green is sec- 

 retary and treasurer. 



FREE TREES. 



Commissioner James S. Whipple, of 

 the New York State Forest, Pish and 

 Game Commission, says that though the 

 capacity of the state's tree nurseries 

 were greatly taxed last year he expected 

 to double the capacity this year. Last 

 year the state planted about 1,100,000 

 of these young trees, but under the new 

 law permitting the furnishing of stock 

 from the state nurseries at cost to indi- 

 viduals there is such a demand for the 

 trees that there will be none left over for 

 planting on state lands. The output to 

 individuals this year will be about 1,500,- 

 000 young trees, most of which are pines, 

 with some , spruce. 



RHODODENDRON MAXIMUM. 



The number of Rhododendron maxi- 

 mum planted throughout the country is 

 increasing yearly, and when we consider 

 how serviceable and effective they are, 

 especially when they are planted in such 

 a way that they grow well from the 

 start, it is no wonder there is an increas- 

 ing demand for them. 



When intending to plant any kind of 

 tree or shrub, it is well to consider the 

 exact conditions surrounding the plants 

 where they are at home, and to make 

 their new home conform as nearly as 

 possible to the original one. Rhododen- 

 dron maximum grows luxuriantly in low 

 and shady places in many parts of the 

 country, and they show to best advantage 

 where the soil wherein they grow is the 

 year round rather moist than otherwise. 



In digging these plants, it can easily 

 be seen that the soil in which their roots 

 are imbedded is composed in great part 

 of decayed leaves and other vegetable 

 matter, which goes to show that, in prt 

 paring a place for them, nothing muct 

 better than leaf-mold can be added t/o 

 the soil. If peat is available, howeve 

 the addition of some of that mateinal 

 will be conducive to still better results.

In the event of leaf-mold and peat being 

 scarce, well rotted stable manure, worked 

 well into the soil, will do much good. 



Low ground or shady slopes, or places 

 where the plants will have the partial 

 shade afforded by deciduous trees, build- 

 ings or walls, suit there requirements. 



It is all very well to have a desire for 

 individuality in everything, but in some 

 things, as in the case of Rhododendron 

 maximum, the result will be much better 

 if they are planted so close together that 

 they will have the appearance of one 

 mass of green, than if they are planted 

 so far apart that the limits of each can
