 proving one of the best planting sea- 

 sons for some years. 



J. K. M. L. Farquhar will sail next 

 week on the S. S. Laconia from Boston 

 for Liverpool. He will visit the inter- 

 national horticultural show in London 

 and will act as one of the 360 jurors. 



Patten & Co. have 4,000 of their fine, 

 new, dark red seedling carnation. Dag- 

 mar, propagated to grow next season. 

 This variety has large flowers and has 

 proved free with them. 



A. A. Pembroke, of North Beverly, 

 continues to ship many of the best car- 

 nations handled by the Flower Grow-

 from another season. 



Mann Bros., of Eandolph, are cutting 

 a grand lot of Spanish iris just now. 

 Herman Waldecker also has superb

The president and fellows of Harvard

 years the store and basement at 31 Otis 

 street and 112 Arch street to N. F. Mc- 

 Carthy & Co., dealers in florists' sup- 

 plies, now located at 84 Hawley street. 

 The lessees plan extensive alterations 

 to the premises, on completion of which 

 they will take possession. 



H. H. Bartsch, of the W. W. Edgar 

 Co., named the following rambler roses 

 as his favorites for Easter forcing at 

 the last club meeting: Lady Gay, Dor- 



othy Perkins, Hiawatha, Tausendschon 

 and Crimson Eambler. Julius Heurlin 

 named Hiawatha, Lady Gay, Tausend- 

 schon, Flower of Fairfield, White Dor- 

 othy Perkins and Leuchstern. F. E. 

 Palmer said he sold ten plants of pink 

 rambler to one of crimson, and the 

 tendency seemed to be for more colored 

 flowering plants each year, apart from 

 lilies. W. N. Craig. 



GIGANTEUMS DID NOT OPEN. 



If possible, please tell me what is the 

 matter with the inclosed sample of my 

 lilies. I had seventeen lilies out of one 

 case of giganteums, 7x9. I have them 

 in a house with a temperature of 64 

 degrees at night. All the lilies were 

 from twenty-four to thirty inches high, 

 with from four to six buds on them 

 that were out by Easter. This is the 

 first time that I have had any trouble 

 with giganteums. V. H. T.

 to too low a temperature, which would 

 account for some of the plants making 

 clean growth, but having all their buds 

 brown. Feeding too heavily is also 

 liable to cause a similar trouble; so, 

 also, is a sharp drop in temperature 

 while the buds are still small. Sharp 

 drops in temperature cause this trouble 

 frequently; when the buds are almost 

 ready to open, if they are taken di-

NAME OF NARCISSUS. 



Will you please give the name of the 

 enclosed narcissus? It is white, with a 

 yellow center, and is quite fragrant 

 when fresh. G. W. S,
