The Batavia Greenhouse Co. is erect- ing two new greenhouses which will be devoted to the growing of ferns, three additional carnation houses will be built later in the season. This firm is cutting a choice grade of long stemmed American Beauty roses which are be- ing sold at their stand in the Flower Growers' Market. The Mrs. Jardine roses at Wietor Bros.' store are of as fine quality as is often seen. The stems are exception- ally long, with beautiful foliage carry- ing extra large flowers of splendid color. A change in the management at the greenhouse is contemplated and the firm is on the lookout for a com- petent foreman. Phil Schupp, of J. A. Budlong's, says that business has been excep- tionally good since they have occupied their new store at 82-86 East Ran- dolph street. Roses and carnations are arriving in quantity large enough to meet all demands. The display of Easter plants at Gar- field Park is a sight worth seeing, and thousands of the residents of the city are embracing the opportunity of ad- miring the beautiful collection that adorns the greenhouses. Harry Manheim visited the Hoerber Bros.' greenhouses at Des Plaines on.
