The Florists^ Review 



Maech 30, 1916. 



EVANSVILLE, IND. 



;/ Tlie Market. 



« 



* The Lenten season does not seem to 

 affect business to any extent, for all 



.plants and cut flowers are moving brisk- 

 ly. A large number of funerals has 

 helped to make the demand for flow- 

 ers strong. Spring has opened with 

 warm days and warm rains. Trees are 

 leafing dSt, the grass is green and the 

 outdoor roses are budding. The rose 

 and carnation crops are good and bulb- 

 ous-stock will soon be gone. It will 

 •be hard to hold Easter stock back, with 

 the exception of lilies, which promise 

 to be about right. 



Various Notes. 



The next meeting of the Florists' 

 Club will be held April 12, at Miss 

 Nellie Goodge 's greenhouses. 



C. L. Niednagel is cutting a large 

 quantity of roses of fine quality. 



The Blackman Floral Co. is having 

 good cuts of roses and carnations. Busi- 

 ness is good. 



Karl Zeidler has had considerable 

 funeral work of late. He has a large 

 stock of spring plants. 



Austin Wallace is cutting exception- 

 ally fine carnations from solid beds. 

 The plants are in fine shape. 



Royston & Fenton report a good busi- 

 ness in coleus. They have not had nearly 

 enough of Brilliancy to supply the de- 

 mand. 



C. Morgan, of the Morgan Floral Co., 

 at Henderson, was a recent visitor.

The Market. 



Business has been good, considering 

 the weather. The first day of spring 

 was accompanied by a heavy fall of 

 snow — the heaviest of the year. Plenty 

 of good stock is on hand, with the 

 exception of Beauties and smilax. 

 Violets are in fine condition and plen- 

 tiful. Sweet peas of all grades and 

 varieties are shown, the best long- 

 stemmed Spencers finding a ready mar- 

 ket. 



Various Notes. 



The Wealthy Street Floral Co. had 

 a fine display of plants and spring 

 flowers last week. 



Arthur F. Crabb has had several 

 large funeral orders lately. 



James Schols is the proud possessor 

 of a new delivery car. Levi Slot has 

 purchased a 5-passenger car for busi- 

 ness and pleasure. A. F. C.
