The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



Janlary 29, 1903. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



Since last week's report the market 

 has shown some improvement. 



The scarcity of roses still exists, but 

 not as noticeable as the week previous. 

 The outlook for a large supply in the 

 near future is very encouraging. 



In carnations there is a sufficient 

 supply, and they are selling better than 

 for some time, with prices ruling a 

 little higher. 



Bulbous stock is on the increase, ex- 

 cepting paper white narcisstus, which 

 have been so very plentiful all season, 

 are now scarce and find ready sale. This 

 can also be said of Roman hyacinths. 

 The supply of Harrisii lilies is' regular. 

 Yellow narcissus are not plentiful. 



E. G. Asmus and Francois Supoit are 

 shipping quantities of very fine white 

 lilacs to the Cut Flower Co., which sell 

 as w^ell as any stock being received. 



Mignonette, sweet peas, vallev and 

 violets are plentiful and meet with a 

 steady demand. 



The writer saw some very good blooms 

 of the new yellow rose. Franz Deegen. 

 at the Pittsburg Cut Flower Co.'s es- 

 tablishment. Heller Bros., of New Cas- 

 tle. Ind., are consigning them. 



An important matter to be discussed 

 at the meeting of the Florists' Club, 

 next Tuesday evening, February 3, will 

 be "Express Eates on Cut Flowers." 



Bridal Muff. 



Randolph & MoClenicnts decorated the 

 First Presbyterian church for a very 

 fashionable wedding last week. The 

 decorations were beautiful and elabor- 

 ate. In lieu of the usual bouquet of 

 flowers, the bride carried white violets 

 and gardenias in the form of a muff, 

 with pendant strands of ribl>on, garland- 

 ed with white violets. The maids car- 

 ried mulTs of Liberty roses. These mutTs 

 made quite a hit.

 of \Vm. Lauch, the florist, of Carrick,

 niversary last Sunda.v. The celebration
