The Weekly Florists' Review, 



BALTIMORE. 



Trade Conditions. 



Excepting funerals and (Commence- 

 ments there was tliis week rea'iy little 

 to take the attention of the retailers. 

 Up to present writing, bediiiug stuff 

 has been selling very slowly, in spite 

 that this season's stock comprises the 

 best varieties and are exceptionally 

 well grown plants. There seemed 

 quite a demand for such outdoor cut 

 stuff as paeonies, sweet peas, etc. 



Decoration Day with us is not what 

 it used to be. Consequently little out 

 of the usual run of trade is expected. 

 This season, however, may prove an 

 exception, owing to the present war, 

 which is awakening much of the old 

 patriotic enthusiasm. 



Notes. 



There is no reason why tiie red. 

 white and blue boutonniere should not 

 become a fad and take its place beside 

 the stick pins and buttons now so uni- 

 versally worn. Example in this world 

 is everything. Consequently the flor- 

 ists (one and all) should inaugurate 

 and suggest this custom to the aping 

 public, with the view of making this 

 floral novelty a "go." At no season or 

 the year could we more truly match 

 the national colors than at present. 

 There are many flowers in that shade 

 of red, but in blue the coru-flowev 

 (just now in its height) stands pre- 

 eminently alone. 



On the 28th inst. Mr. Liddo Pennock, 

 of the firm of Pennock Bros., Phil- 

 adelphia, paid us a flying visit of but 

 a few hours. 



Arrived: Suddenly on the 2lGt inst., 

 carrying a new umbrella and an extra 

 large order book, wearing his white 

 ribbon and a bland smile of purity, our 

 most welcome friend, Mr. .\I. Rice.
