. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. THE WHILLDIN POTTERY COMPANY THE LARGEST MANUFACTURERS OF STANDARD FLOWER POTS PHILADELPHIA, PA. LONG ISLAND CITY, N. Y. JERSEY CITY, N. J. trade and will probably keep hold of it at least one more season. In the carnation section the plants are in great shape and a large cut is on. Mrs. T. W. Lawson is still grown here in quantity and White Lawson is also very well done, large pure white flowers being taken. Enchantress, Rose Pink Enchantress and Winsor are grown in immense numbers. Beacon here, as in many other places, is large- ly taking the place of Robt. Craig, be- ing much freer in growth and produc- ing many more flowers to the plant. The propagating house is filled with healthy, well-rooted cuttings. Last year 1,300,000 were rooted and already this season 800,000 have beeil put in the sand. Everything around the portion of the plant we visited was in perfect order, the plants clean and healthy all promising extremely well for the coming season. Pistachio Trees at Infllo, Cal. Seventy-five pistachio trees have been sent to the government experimental station at Indio, Cal., and are in a promising condition. The trees are six months old, and received consid- erable backset from being disturbed in shipping, but they are now starting a new growth. The pistachio nut is a native of Greece, but it is believed it is especially adapted to the Coa- chella valley and that it can be raised with profit there. There are three varieties, one of which bears the delicate green nut_ used for ices, creams, etc., and the other varieties are for flavoring and confections. The nuts do not ap- pear until about the fifth year, and the tree does not come into full bearing until it reaches an age of six or seven years. The nuts sell at from $1 to $ per pound, and an average tree will bear 25 pounds . Orders From Everywhere. American Florist Co. — Please omit from my advertisement of chrysanthe
