The Florists^ Review 



Mabch 9, 1016. 



NASHVILLE, TENN. 



The Market. 



The heaviest snowfall of the winter 

 occurred last week, after the outdoor 

 flowers were coming in freely, but noth- 

 ing seemed to be injured. The longer 

 days have had their effect, and there 

 is an abundance of most items, though 

 roses still are short. The demand con- 

 tinues better tljan normal, almost every- 

 thing selling well. Pot plants are more 

 in evidence than they were a week ago, 

 but there is nothing in the way of nov- 

 elties to be seen. Sweet peas are ex- 

 ceedingly plentiful, as well as violets. 

 Peas continue to show the best quality I 

 have ever seen in this city. Cyclamens 

 are on the wane, more having been sold 

 this season , than ever before. Cin- 

 erarias are at their best and we have 

 been pleased to see so many pastel col- 

 ors in this flower. In the past it was 

 more gaudy than beautiful. 



Our growers are producing their own 

 cyclamen seed, and I doubt if there are 

 finer strains in the country. If more 

 of our American growers produced their 

 own seed of the rare plants we would 

 see more individuality in plants. The 

 land is dry enough to be plowed and 

 those who do outdoor growing are pre- 

 paring the soil. All available space is 

 being filled with cannas and other bed- 

 ding plants. There are probably more 

 good bedding plants on hand now than 

 ever before at this time of year. 



Various Notes. 



T. H. Joy is planning to attend the 

 Philadelphia National Flower Show and, 

 after it is over, to make a short trip 

 to some of the larger flower centers. 



The Hillcrest School Farm is planting 

 roses in the field this week. Several 

 thousand ramblers will be grown this 

 season. 



Mclntyre Bros, received a nice lot of 

 ornamental evergreens last week. 



Geny Bros, have their store filled 

 with a general line of excellent pot 

 plants. 



Charles Tritschler, who built a place 

 near Sylvia park last summer, is doing 

 a good business. He has contracts with 

 the Louisville & Nashville railroad 

 which insure him success in his busi- 

 ness. 



Leslie Littel, who is located just be- 

 hind the National cemetery, is rapidly 

 stocking up and will be ready for the 

 spring business. F. B.
