ROCHES! ER, N. Y. 



Business for iiie month of Septem- 

 ber has been quite satisfactory. Cut 

 flower trade was rather above the av- 

 erage compared with other years, and 

 sales in decorative plants reached a 

 higher figure than usual. Stock of 

 ordinary fl^ A'ers was always procura- 

 ble in quantity, though at times there 

 was a scarcuy in roses in the home 

 market, but relief came from nearby 

 towns. September weddings were 

 numerous and many of them proved 

 a source of profit to our florists. Fall 

 openings in the big department stores 

 were in order the latter part of the 

 month and called for more or less 

 elaborate decorations and this brisk 

 opening of the season is so encourag- 

 ing that everybody Is confident of 

 prosperous times ahead. 



We had no trosts yet to do damage 

 to our outdoor stuff, and have still a 

 large supply of common flowers to 

 drawfrom,but astersareon the wane. 

 Local rose growers are now supplying 

 the market, the first crop of the young 

 plants is in. some of the stock is 

 A 1, but the bulk of it is of a lower 

 grade; stems are weak or else too 

 short, and frequently we see foliage 

 disfigured by mildew spots. Carna- 

 tions are backward, the plants are 

 fairly good mostly but hardly any of 

 them are in bloom yet; the dry sum- 

 mer has retarded their growth and 

 but few houses were planted early. 



Violets have been in the market for 

 several weeks. Czar is the earliest 

 good large single for this neighbor- 

 hood and is truly a very prolific fall 

 bloomer with good long stem, resem- 

 bling the later California in this re- 

 spect and in color also. The doubles 

 which have been offered so far are 

 rather too small and do not sell read- 

 ily. 



Chrysanths in our town are behind 

 other years, none have been offered 

 yet, though C. Suhr and Schlegels 

 will be able to cut some good flowers
