The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Mabch 18, 1909. 



ORANGE. N. J. 



The regular meeting of the New Jer- 

 sey Floricultural Society was held here 

 March 12. The evening was observed as 

 a special carnation night. The new car- 

 nation, Mrs. Pfeuffer, was exhibited by 

 John L. Pfeuffer, of Irvington, N. J. 

 It is a seedling of Prosperity x Floriana, 

 of Daybreak shade, with a full calyx 

 and dented petals, and is very fragrant. 

 Its owner claims that it is of superior 

 merit as a commercial variety, being a 

 heavy cropper and free bloomer during 

 the months of December and January. 



Henry Hornecker, of East Orange, 

 made an exhibit of some well grown Vic- 

 tory, receiving a certificate of merit. 



There was the usual array from private 

 estates. 



Lager & Hurrell exhibited a collection 

 of orchids, among which a hybrid Iselia 

 was particularly fine. 



A paper upon the cultivation of the 

 carnation, by William Lyons, gardener 

 at Spring Brook Farms, Morristown, 

 was read by the secretary. Mr. Lyons 

 was prevented from coming by sickness 

 in his family. 



Totty on mums will be a feature of 

 the next meeting. J. B. D. 



HILLSDALE, MICH. 



Carl Hirsch has recently been doing 

 some substantial work . in the repairing 

 and remodeling of his greenhouses. Ce- 

 ment was largely used in the renewing 

 of the posts and benches. A system of 

 patent sprinklers has also been installed. 



When Mr. and Mrs. Hirsch came to 

 Hillsdale from Germany fifteen years 

 ago, Mr. Hirsch borrowed his first dol- 

 lar with which to enter business. He 

 was then 29 years of age. His green- 

 houses now contain 30,000 square feet of 

 glass. 



Mr. Hirsch is gardener for the Lake 

 Shore railway west of Toledo and has 

 been elected president of the American 

 Association of Railway Gardeners. 



HoPKixsviLLE, Ky. — T. L. Metcalfe 

 has almost completed another addition to 

 his greenhouses. With this added space, 

 Mr. Metcalfe now has 26,000 square feet 

 under glass. 



Olney, III.— The Wilson Floral Co. 

 has a climbing rose of a creamy white 

 color in one end of its greenhouse, that 

 runs up and around one end and corner 

 of the house, yielding a profuse crop of 

 fine flowers each season. Sometimes as 

 many as 100 flowers have been cut at one 

 time. The plant is 14 years old and has 

 been in its present position all that time. 

 The flowers come in handy for design 

 work.
