baby ramblers. A house of hybrid 

 perpetuals in pots also looked first-class 

 and included Brunner, Frau Karl 

 Druschki, Magna Charta, etc. Amer- 

 ican Beauty was also well done. 



Metrosideros, or bottlebrush, is al- 

 ways well flowered here and they never 

 appeared better than now. Spiraeas, 

 hydrangeas and a variety of other 

 Easter plants also were seen. Many 

 thousands of young cyclamens were 

 coming along- for flowering next win- 

 ter, which it would be hard .to dupli- 

 cate. Large quantities of geraniums 

 and other bedding plants filled several 

 houses, while thousands of hydrangeas 

 were being started for Memorial day. 



Following an inspection of the 

 houses an excellent luncheon was served 

 and speeches made by President W. J. 

 Kennedy, A. P. Calder, Sr., Thomas J. 

 Grey, H. H. Bartsch, the efficient man- 

 ager and member of the firm; R. S. 

 Edgar and Mrs. W. W. Edgar. Great 

 praise was given Mr. Bartsch for the 

 splendid condition of the stock and to 

 Mrs. Edgar for her generous luncheon, 

 and rousing cheers for them were given 

 before the pleasant gathering dis- 

 persed. 



Various Notes. 



Members of the Horticultural Club 

 visited the establishment of Peirce 

 Bros., at Waltham, March 5. One of 

 the big houses of giganteum lilies was 

 in prime condition for Easter, as fine 

 as this firm ever has had them. There 

 were many thousands of them, and 

 practically all are already sold. Aza- 

 leas and other pot plants also are 

 grown. Boses now fill several houses 

 and look remarkably well. Killarney, 

 White Killarney and Hillingdon mostly 

 are grown. A house of the last named 

 looked first-class, with fine stems and 

 large flowers. Several houses are de- 

 voted to carnations. Of the newer ones

Rosette and St. Nicholas looked well, 

 while Pink Delight, White Wonder and 

 others were in good crop. The whole 

 of the 150,000 feet of glass was filled 

 with good stock, 



A. M. Davenport, of Watertown, has 

 some thousands of giganteum lilies in 

 splendid condition for Easter. He has 

 also grown quite a variety of rambler 

 roses, his standards of Mrs. Cutbush 

 being good. Mr. Davenport formerly 

 forced quite a number of strawberries 



in pots for store trade, but has dropped 

 them as unprofitable. 



At the club meeting March 18, in 

 addition to Edwin Jenkins' lecture on 

 sweet peas, there will be considerable 

 business incidental to the coming New 

 York show.
