The Weekly Florists' Review. 



JCNE 21, 19W. 



WASHINGTON. 



Business now is very quiet, witli the 

 exceptions of commencement and fu- 

 neral work, and, outside of these two 

 lines, sales are practically dead. Roses 

 of ail kinds are of a poor quality, al- 

 though Gude Bros, are still cutting 

 some tine Beauties for this season of 

 the year. Sweet peas are very popu- 

 lar, but the over-production causes the 

 prices to go way down. 



All tea roses bring 2 to 4 cents; car- 

 nations, $1 per 100: peas, $1 to $1.50 

 per 1,000; cornflower, coi'eopsis and 

 auratum lilies can be bought at any 

 price. 



Most of our growers are now very 

 busy planting and building. Among 

 those who are building are C. Sheldon, 

 who is adding another house 30x150; 

 Theodore Dietrich, another violet 

 house 100x20; Gude & Bro.. two houses 

 150x30 for Beauties and Liberties; F. 

 H. Kramer, four houses 140x30 for 

 roses and carnations. 



A great many new carnations will 

 be growB in this vicinity this year. 



From all indications the S. A. F. 

 meeting in New York will draw the 

 largest delegation that has ever gone 

 from here. It has not yet been de- 

 cided whether we shall attend in a 

 body or not. 



W. E. Lacey, formerly with the 

 American Rose Co., has bought out 

 their Twenty - second street branch 

 store and conservatory. Will is very 

 popular with the boys, who wish him 

 success. F. H. KRAMER. 



LOWELL, MASS. 



The midsummer season, which gen- 

 erally implies a dull spell, does not 

 seem to have affected trade to any no- 

 ticeable degree. On the contrary, bus- 

 iness is quite brisk while the usual 

 crop of June weddings promises to 

 keep the florists busy. 



Messrs. Patten & Roberts report the 

 biggest spring trade they have had in 

 years, while their Decoration Day 

 trade surpassed their most sanguine 

 expectations. 



This enterprising firm has recently 

 .added a handsome delivery wagon to 

 their general up-to-date equipment. It 

 is an elaborate affair and attracts a 

 deal of attention as it rolls along the 

 avenue. 



J. J. McManmon is sprucing up 

 things about his greenhouse establish- 

 ment and expects to be equipped in 

 fine shape to handle his ever increas- 

 ing trade. Besides growing a general 

 stock of cut flowers and plants for his 

 retail trade, Mr. McManmon devotes a 

 deal of his time and space to nursery 

 stock. 



Whittett & Son are well satisfied 

 with the result of their spring sales; 

 nor is there complaint from any quar- 

 ter. S.

 the florist, is very ill and is at one of 

 the city hospitals.
