The Weekly Florists' Review. 



SEPTEMHHH 2S, 1899. 



WASHINGTON. 



Roses of all kinds are coming in 

 from young stock, and are as fine as 

 can be for this season of the year. 

 Prices have stiffened somewhat; teas 

 of all kinds are bringing from 3 to 6 

 cents and sell readily at that. On ac- 

 count of the housing of carnations 

 they are somewhat scarce and don't 

 bring more than one cent for any and 

 all kinds. Demand for all stock has 

 increased. A great many society peo- 

 ple are now coming home on account 

 of the Dewey celebration, which event 

 causes them to return sooner than 

 usual. From all indications this event 

 will not cause any demand for flowers. 



Growers all around are busy hous- 

 ing their carnations and mums. Carna- 

 tions this season have gone a little 

 above the average, as the season has 

 been very favorable for them, but 

 mums seem very much behind and all 

 early ones will be at least two weeks 

 later than usual. 



D. Z. Blackstone has removed from 

 his old place of business to the corner 

 of Fourteenth and Eleventh streets, 

 which gives him one of the largest and 

 handsomest stores in the city. Mr. 

 Blackstone is very popular among the 

 florists, and he has the best wishes for 

 success from every one. 



Visitors this week were: B. Esch- 

 ner, of Rice & Co., Philadelphia; Cook 

 Bros., Baltimore; Wm. Bestsr, Hagers- 

 town, Md. F. H. KRAMER. 



BROCKTON, MASS. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Brockton Florists' and Gardeners' 

 Club was held Thursday evening. Sept. 

 21, with about a dozen members pres- 

 ent. 



Messrs. Copeland & Cooper have dis- 

 solved partnership. The business will 

 be continued by Mr. Charles Cooper. 

 The store is nicely stocked with palms 

 and pot plants and Mr. Cooper antici- 

 pates doing a good business this win- 

 ter. 



Business in general seems very 

 good. Stock of all kinds is plenty and 

 quality fair, excepting carnations, 

 which are very small, especially the 

 white ones. 



Mr. Hathaway, in the Times block, 

 has a very neat and charmingly ar- 

 ranged store andi seems to be doing a 

 good business. 



Mr. Duly, of Randolph, is putting 

 in his pinks for winter blooming. He 

 expects to have his new houses com- 

 pleted by the first of October. 



News was received here yesterday 

 of the death of President French's
