The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



April 3. 1902 



LOUISVILLE, KY. 



Easter trade was a record breaker this 

 year; lots of blooming plants were sold; 

 the only scarcity was in Harrisii lilies, 

 many of which were diseased; prices 

 ruled about the same as last year. Roses 

 from $1.50 to $2.-50 per doz."; hyacinths, 

 $1; carnations, fanej', easily sold for 

 $1 per doz. Take it all around the flor- 

 ists are all satisfied. 



Mr. Jacob Schulz made one of the finest 

 displays of Easter plants ever seen in our 

 city, and he was kept busy till late in the 

 night. I'. Walker & Co. "also had a fine 

 display of azaleas, tulips and lilies; they 

 report a very large business. Nanz & 

 Neuner's store was a floral bazaar and 

 was decorated very finely; they sold lots 

 of flowering plants. Jos. Coeuen & Co. 

 did a land oflice business this Easter and 

 John Bohrnian iiandled it without gloves; 

 their hyacinths and tulips were in fine 

 shape. Fred Haupt's store was a blaze 

 of electric lights and made a beautiful 

 showing on the flowering plants and cut 

 flowers which he had for Easter. Wm. 

 Mann, the lily king, was right in it for 

 Easter and took good care of his trade 

 in the soutliern part of the city; William 

 is smiling all over. Mrs. C. B." Thompson 

 and Wm. Walker both report a heavy 

 Easter trade. 



Frank LichtefeUl, father of Hy Liehte- 

 feld, who has been ((infincd to his bed for 

 several days, is able to be about again 

 and is attending to business. 



Easter Sunday came in raw and very 

 cold, which hurt the sale of cut flowers 

 for cemetery purposes to some e.xteut. 

 Ht Lichtefeld. 



Some surprise was caused by the some- 

 what sudden opening of the "retail store 

 at 632 Fourth avenue on Friday last by 

 Mrs. Chas'. Rayner in time to catch the 

 Easter trade. Her store, which is very 

 largo and attractive, is situated in one 

 of the most desirable blocks on Fourth 

 avenue, and promises, with its two large 

 windows, to afford an excellent oppor- 

 tunity for display. She is connected with 

 the Anchorage Rose Co. and we wish her 

 the success she deserves. BUD. 



HARTFORD, CONN. 



Everybody had a good business Easter, 

 and from all accounts everything in the 

 plant line was cleaned up." There was 

 a good supply of cut flowers, which sold 

 well with the exception of bulb stock. 

 Carnations seld at from 75 cents to $2.50 

 per doz.; violets went well but the supply 

 was ample for the demand. As before 

 stated, bulb stock was hard to move, 

 partly on account of the good supply of 

 domestic goods. 



In plants, lilies took the lead, with 

 azaleas a good second. White lilacs went 

 like hot cakes and more could have been 

 sold. Prices on cut flowers were much 

 better than ever before, plants going 

 about as usual. Conservative estimates 

 give the business done this year as 40 

 per cent greater than that of last year.

An error was made in the adv. of the 

 W. T. Buckley Plant Co. in our last issue. 

 The quotation on geraniums should have 

 been $14.00 per 1,000 instead of $4.00.
