The Weekly Florists' Review* 



March 25, 1909. 



NEW ORLEANS. 



Qub Meeting. 



This is a time of the year when every 

 florist is busy disposing of bis spring 

 stock in filling orders. On that account, 

 no doubt, the last meeting of the New 

 Orleans Horticultural Society was poorly 

 attended, although it was quite interest- 

 ing. After the general routine business 

 J. A. Newsham passed a few remarks on 

 different orchids collected and raised by 

 him M. E. Baker read an interesting 

 paper on "The Advantage of Teaching 

 School Children How to Raise Plants and 

 Sow Seeds." P. Chopin and C. R. Panter 

 made several propositions to induce the 

 public in general to take the advice of 

 the society in regard to planting trees in 

 the city, a movement which is in great 

 favor now. 



Various Notes. 



M. Cook 's Sons have a fine lot of hy- 

 drangeas coming in time for Easter. 

 Their tuberous-rooted begonias and glox- 

 inias are also blooming nicely. M. Cook, 

 Sr., has purchased a piece of ground, 

 known as the "Home of Flowers" and 

 formerly occupied by R. Metre, the vet- 

 eran florist of the south. He is remodel- 

 ing the place as a first-class florists' es- 

 tablishment, to start his son, R. Cook, in 

 business. M. M. L.
