MISCELLANEOUS CUT FLOWEBS. 



The feature of the display of miscel-

 easily was Wm, Sim's collection of

NEW PLANTS. 



There were gold, silver and bronze 

 medals galore offered for new plants, a 

 place being provided for practically 

 anything that might develop, but noth- 

 ing startling came of it. W. A. Mand.a 

 was the principal exhibitor in these 

 classes, with a lot of stock of interest 

 and value to private gardeners, but not 

 likely to prove of great importance 

 commercially. A. C. Zvolanek's new 

 Spencer peas promise well commercially, 

 but they are not now what might be 

 called unknown. The awards were:

BOSE PLANTS. 



.While such splendid groups as those 

 of Koland and Walsh shown at Boston 

 were not availiable for this show be- 

 cause of weather conditions that put 

 the plants too far gone, the rose plants 

 are a feature of the show nevertheless. 

 It is more in the line of commercial 

 stock, b|^t it makes a good show. These 

 roses were staged on the opening day. 

 The awards were:

GABDENEBS' PLANT CLASSES. 



There were seventy-one classes for 

 miscellaneous plants, open only to pri- 

 vate gardeners, and the "premium monej 

 was fairly liberal. A fine competition 

 was looked for here, but it failed to 

 develop. Of the seventy-one classes 

 thirty-five failed to attract a single 

 entry and of the remainder only one
