This work will be continued until th-y have all been respaced. Within the next week or two these trees will be in faoll bloom. They are an annual flower show in themselves. The magnolia trees throu‘hout the parkway system are now in bud and will be in bloom in & few days. At the present time large beda of pansies and tulips are coming into flower in the parks. The pansy beds are in the following parks: Mont- rose; Monument grounds, Franklin, Sherman - Statue, Smithsonian and National Museum. The beds of spring bulbs that are attracting the most attention are In these parks Farregut, McPherson. Judiclary and ‘West Potomac Park. On Capitol Hill they are in Stanton and Lincoln parks and all avenue park from 6th to 14th streets. It is the best bulb display in the National Capital for many years. These beds will be succeeded by cannas, salvias or scarlet sage, vin- cas, ageratum and begonias, which will be permanent throughout the summer. Designs Set Out. Designs are to be set out for which the following plants will be used: Alternanthera, in different colors: evonymus. a white leafed plant used very extensively: sibthorpia, used for carpet bedding, and iresine, acalypha and centaures The plan is to make a design bed in the ‘Washington Monument grounds. with the words ‘‘Welcome to American Florists.” in honor of the Soclety of American Florists, which i{s to held its annual conven- tion here in August. There will also be & design bed in front of the Na- tional Museum in honor of the flore ists, where their motto “Say it With Flowers™ will be set out.
