The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Ol'TOP.EII 22. l'.tic:. 



PITTSBURG. 



with 



The Market. 



The maa ki t is still loaded d< 

 large quantities of dahlias, cosmos, 

 hardy chrysanthemums and gladioli. 

 This has quite a bad effect on the sale 

 of roses, and particularly on chrysanthe- 

 mums. At this writing (Monday), one 



chrysanthemums of I I 

 quality at $6 and $8 per 100, and if 

 in quantity they can be had for 

 much less. The average price on Pacific 

 rgmann is $4 per 100. Eoses 

 are plentiful, but the good grades sell 

 readily. Carnations are in fine condi- 

 tions 11 •"• arc producing good flow- 

 . . s. I ., son i- short -stemmed, but 

 fine, big blooms. Enchantress is a win- 

 i sells well. In white the same 

 conditions exist as last season — a short- 

 he market price on cosmos, if 

 bought in quantity, is 10 cents per 

 bunch. One grower said, this pays for 

 bunching and the string. Asters of the 

 -till in evidence. Smi- 

 las is a glut. 



It appears as if all growers have dou- 

 ble the amount of Glory of Pacific 

 mums this season. The result is very 

 ble. The wholesale houses are 

 erstocked on this variety, while 

 the white varieties are scarce. 

 Notes. 



Loew & Jones were busy with funeral 

 work last Thursday. They made up fif- 

 teen designs which aggregated in value 

 $250. The emblems were all sent to 

 Xiles. Ohio. 



At the next meeting of the Florists' 

 Club, November .".. chrysanthemums will 

 be discussed. All members are asked 

 to bring specimen blooms. 



Eandolph & McClements have a house 

 of small ferns for dishes which are wor- 

 thy of mention. 



Geddis & Blind will open their new 

 store at 30 Fifth street, October 31. 



Another new wrinkle in the way of a 

 commission man in this market. He 

 carries his office in his hat and his store 

 under his arm. Every day except Mon- 

 day a messenger makes his calls among 

 the stores with his box of valley, carna- 

 tions and violets, which are offered at 

 low prices. He hails from the east.
