SUMMER SHOW OF FLOWERS AT WOOLSTON.

Gladioli and carnations are the principal colour feature of the Woolston Horticultural Society's summer show in Woolston Park. They make a brave and attractive display. The entries of roses are comparatively few, but their quality is good. The sweet peas are very fair considering the weather. As usual at that show, vegetables are an outstanding feature in regard to both numbers and quality. In many classes of vegetables the judge found difficulty in deciding between first and second competitors. The sho won the whole marks another success for the society, which has a long run of successes to its credit. Messrs T. J. Edmonds and Co. have a special display of ferns and foliage plants, and the Christchurch Nursery Company has a special exhibit of noses. The judges were: Carnations f and gladioli, Mr W. C. C.
