. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. May 8, 1913. The Florists* Review 13 houses are kept exceedingly neat. At the time of my visit two large houses of sweet peas were in full crop, the stems fifteen to eighteen inches long, with three and four flowers to the stem. The varieties are Florence Denzer, Christ- mas Pink, Mrs. W. W. Smalley and Watchung. The last named is a dwarfer grower than the others, but carried splendid stems. It is an excel- lent white variety to grow where head- room is limited. One house 400 feet long was entirely devoted to Zvolanek's new winter-flowering Spencers, fifty va- rieties in all. These have the same habit as the older winter-blooming sweet peas and some were showing buds wliile only eighteen inches high. Many of the best outdoor Spencer va- rieties are planted, including a quantity of novelties, and the houses should be a grand sight later in the season. The characteristics of the true winter- bloomers and outdoor sweet peas were plainly to be seen here. In one house containing both types the winter-bloom- ers were eighteen inches high, running right up to flower with a single stem. On the other hand, the outdoor types were much branched close to the ground and only four to five inches high. Princess of Wales violets are grown between the sweet peas, being pulled out as the latter shade them too much. Some 75, 000 plants of these are grown and the work of picking and bunching takes considerable time. Tomatoes are grown to succeed the violets where no sweet peas are planted and to take the places of the earliest sweet peas, about 40, 000 plants being grown, mostly of Comet. One house contained piuisios of superb quality. These were in evidence at the recent New York show. The flowers carried are simply immense. To supplement the city water supply, Mr. Sim some time ago sunk an ar- tesian well 300 feet and gets a stream of 100 gallons per minute. He keeps his engine going night and day in the dry season, using much of the water
