are seen here in quantity. Standard 

 rambler roses are good. Pittosporum 

 Tobira is well liked here as an ever- 

 green shrub. 



At Harry Quint's store business has 

 picked up wonderfully since flowers 

 dropped in price. A heavy business is 

 done here in flowering plants, particu- 

 larly bulbs in pans. This store is the 

 only one in Boston that has a lawn in 

 front, which is neatly planted with 

 flowers and shrubs, and the curbing is 

 well utilized for flowering plants, 

 baskets, etc. 



At the busy store of Wax Bros., on 

 Tremont street, large bouquets of 

 pansies and violets are a great feature, 

 as are old-fashioned bouquets. Samuel 

 Wax says the best selling roses are 

 Ophelia, Russell and Hadley, while in 

 carnations Enchantress Supreme, 

 Matchless, Rosette and White En- 

 chantress are the leaders. Butterflies 

 are featured a great deal and large 

 numbers are sold. Mr. Wax is a great 

 collector of these and has a splendid 

 assortment of home and foreign varie- 

 ties. 



At H. R. Comley's store, on Park 

 street, some flowers can always be 

 found that are not seen at the other 

 stores. I noted here strelitzias, cri- 

 nums, imantophyllums, dimorphothecas, 

 Spanish iris, colored freesias and ex- 

 cellent pans of Darwin tulips. 



At the Zinn establishment, on Park 

 street, baskets of bulbous flowers with 

 pussy willows, polyantha roses, pans of 

 bulbs, cyclamens and Polypodium 

 Mandaianum are meeting with an ex- 

 ceptionally good sale. 



At Galvin's new store general busi- 

 ness is reported good. In addition to 

 many funeral- orders, they have recently 

 had some large decorations for balls 

 and weddings. 



The Houghton-Gorney Co., on Tre- 

 mont street, always keeps its windows 

 tastefully arranged. Here colored 

 freesias, cornflowers in various colors, 

 calendulas and orchids are well fea- 

 tured. 



At Penn's, on Tremont street, I 

 found the staff busy on funeral work 

 February 22. For Valentine's day this 

 progressive firm spent over $1,000 in 

 advertising violets and their sales of 

 this flower reached no less than 300,000 

 blooms. It is worthy of special note 

 that Penn has now conducted an adver- 

 tising campaign for Valentine's day 

 for six years, offering a special heart- 

 shaped box with a bunch of violets for 

 $1.50. That this publicity has paid is 

 evidenced by the increase in sales each 

 year. The last Valentine's day was a 

 bad one on which to make deliveries, 

 for a foot of snow fell the previous 

 day. Sixty messenger boys were used 

 in addition to their delivery cars. 

 Surely, if other concerns would follow 

 up this advertising regularly, flower
