Charles Razer and "William Turner, all 

 of which did well last season. The 

 older varieties, such as Pacific Supreme, 

 Chadwick, white and yellow. Major Bon- 

 naffon and Halliday, are still among 

 the best sorts and were especially good 

 last season. Sweet peas, which are 

 sown in pots in the fall and are planted 

 in the benches after the mums are done, 

 are in fine condition. Christmas Pink is 

 the best for early- forcing. Wallacea, a 

 fine new lavender, with fine flowers 

 on good long stems, and Florence Den- 

 ver, for white, seem to be the best 

 for early forcing. There has been a 

 heavy cut from these all winter. Some 

 hulbous stock is grown for a short crop, 

 such as narcissi and a few of the bet- 

 ter varieties of tulips. There is also 

 one house of plumosus. Mr. Hoehl be- 

 liev«B the cause of so many giganteum 

 iilies coming short this season is due 

 to trying to force them too quickly, 

 as most of the short plants produce 

 good flowers, which shows that it is 

 not the fault of the bulb but is due 

 *^o the growing. 



Various Notes. 



Philadelphia will welcome the Na- 

 tional Flower Show in 1915. No effort 

 will be spared to make the fourth ex- 

 hibition and meeting all that the heart 

 of the most ardent enthusiast could de- 

 sire. 



Casper and George L. Pennock find 

 their Ford motor delivery car of great 

 service in bringing their cut flowers into 

 the city.

 opening of the outdoor planting season. 



Philadelphia was well represented at

The Market. 



Business has been unusually good 

 during the last week, a number of 

 weddings and social functions calling 

 for considerable decorative wdtk and 

 cut flowers. The decorations of all 

 the principal stores for Fashion Week 

 also served to stimulate business. Fu- 

 neral work was brisk. Outdoor work
