Hyacinths, Candytuft and Perns in This Basket. It is time we had some good yellow hybrid tea roses, but noue of them ap- proaches the old Marechal Niel iii color and fragrance. French Hydrangeas. A decade ago there were few hydran- geas offered at Easter and these were of the old Hortensia or otaksa type. But the advent of the new French varieties, which come in pure white, deep pink, salmon, pale pink, rose, blue and other shades, has caused a revolution in hy- drangea culture. They are unlikely to displace the old otaksa for Memorial day sales, or for use as specimens on lawns or on verandas in summer, but for early flowering they are a wonder- ful acquisition. The smallest plants bloom with remarkable freedom and their ease of propagation and culture, fine range of colors and lasting proper- ties should commend them to any coun- try florist. Such beautiful sorts as Mme. Chautard, Mme. E. Mouillere, Radiant, Mont Bose, General de Vibraye, Mme. Auguste Nonin and Eclaireur can hardly fail to sell at Easter. Speaking of these lovely plants, now is the time to get in a good-sized batch of cuttings, which when rooted can be potted off and planted outdoors about the end of May, preferably where they can be given some water if the weather is hot and dry, and potted in Septem- ber, for use another Easter. These hy- drangeas flower with wonderful free- dom and specimens 10 years old in tubs, carrying fifty or more heads, are seen at some of the plant establishments. These are among the finest offerings for the coming Easter and, Mr. Retailer, be sure to instruct your man who does the watering to give hydrangeas an ample supply, as they are thirsty subjects.
