The Weekly Florists' Review. 



ONCINNATL 



Various Items. 



Tlic past week we liad more llowers 

 in this inurlcet thun we have liad at any 

 other time this season. Roses, espeeially 

 were in large supply and sold at corre- 

 spondingly low prices. The best grades 

 were held well to quoted prices, for most 

 of the stock was of second and third 

 grade. As usual, Meteors and Beauties 

 were not in great enough supply to fill 

 all orders, especially for the better 

 grades. It seems strange that with the 

 large number of Beauties that are grown 

 this market has never yet been able to 

 get enough to go around. There is al- 

 ways a brisk demand for them, and when 

 they are of good grade they sell at sight. 



Violets have made their appearance 

 and are of very good quality. Tliey are 

 grown in the mountains of Virginia. It 

 seems that the high mountain climate 

 is just what the violets need, for they 

 are grown by the same people year after 

 year with uniform results. The blooms 

 bring from 25 to 50 cents per 100. 



Some very good valley is to be had at 

 4 cents. Cosmos, in very good varieties, 

 is being cut by several growers; price, 

 25 cents per bunch. Smilax is very 

 scarce; in fact, there is none in the mar- 

 ket that can be called good. What there 

 is sells at 15 cents per string. 



The earlier varieties of chrysanthe- 

 mums are coming in and sell at from $1 

 per dozen to 15 and 20 cents each for 

 extra choice, with supply about equal 

 to the demand. Prospects are good for a 

 large cut this season, and Cincinnati 

 will be strictly in it when it comes to 

 getting first-elass blooms. 



H. M. Altick, Dayton, 0., has a white 

 sport from Glory of Pacific which bids 

 fair to be a good thing. It is identical 

 with Glory of Pacific in growth and 

 form, but is pure white in color. 



There was only one variety of chrys- 

 anthemum judged by the committee on 

 Saturday. This was a large white 

 named C. Hoist, which originated with 

 Mr .C. Hoist, of New Orleans, and ex- 

 hibited by E. G. Hill Company, of Rich- 

 mond; height, 3 1-2 feet; bloom, 6 1-2 

 iiehes; form on order of Merry Xmas; 

 first crown bud taken; bloom cut Octo- 

 ber 11. 



The regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Society was held Saturday. The princi- 

 pal business was making up a pro- 

 gramme for the coming monthly show. 

 Some good prizes will be off'ered. The 

 first exhibition will be a chrysanthemum 

 show, which will be held in the society's 

 clubrooms some time in November. 



Louis Pfeiffer & Sons have closed their 

 Newport, Ky., place and have opened a 

 store here at Race and Eighth streets. 



John Evans and E. G. Hill, of Rich- 

 mond, Ind., and William Lodder, of 

 Hamilton, Ohio, were visitors this week. 

 C. J. Ohmer. 



The George Wittbold Co., Chicago, 

 have just issued a very handsomely illus- 

 trated and finely printed retail catalogue 

 that is worthy of special note. The 

 numerous fine half-tone engravings are 

 printed on enameled book paper, with 

 abundance of margin, giving the eff'ect 

 of a portfolio rather than a catalogue. 



Mt. Kisco, N. Y. — No exhibition will 

 be held by the local organization this 

 year, but it is expected that one will 

 be held in 1902.
