The Florists^ Review 



April 13, 1916. 



MINNEAPOLIS. 



Various Notes. 



Theodore Wirth speaks in the highest 

 terms of the Philadelphia show. He 

 made special note of the hybrid per- 

 petual and hybrid tea roses and in- 

 tends to give a nuttiber of them trials 

 in the rose garden and in the various 

 parks in Minneapolis. This will add 

 another feature to our great parks. 



Mr. Hayden, of the Florist SJiop, 

 says that trade is good, in spasms. He 

 is stocking some nice lines for the 

 Easter trade. 



Thomas Lynes has been busy with 

 funeral work. 



Sunday, April 2, was a real com- 

 mencement day for the seedsmen and 

 florists. The Minneapolis Journal pub- 

 lished four pages of horticultural mat- 

 ter of interest to all amateur gardeners. 

 Seedsmen, growers and florists had 

 large display advertisements. The motto 

 is: "If you are wise, you'll advertise, 

 to keep before the public's eyes." 



Mr. Cargill is cutting some nice car- 

 nations. I hear he is going to reorgan- 

 ize his staff. The range is a good one 

 and capable of turning out quantities 

 of high-grade stock. , 



The growers all report good sales of 

 Easter stock. Azaleas are in great de- 

 mand, and the supply is short. 



The Sunshine Florists have had 

 fine displays in their window. Mr. 

 A'^illas believes in doing all he can to, 

 attract attention to his stock. 



Northrup, King & Co. are about to 

 commence on a $500,000 plant for their 

 seed business. The buildings will be 

 most modern and equipped with all the 

 best improvements. Trade in all de- 

 partments is on the increase and with 

 the development of a vast territory 

 Northr<ip, King & Co. are sure to have 

 a large share of the business for their 

 stock. 



The Mazey Floral Co. is making good 

 displays of spring stock. 



C. N. Euedlinger is busy -with land- 

 scape contracts and garden work. 



H. F. Baker, of the Lake Harriet 

 Nurseries, reports heavy business in 

 the landscape department. The oflSce 

 staff has been enlarged and a heavy 

 season is in view. 



The Chicago Avenue Greenhouses 

 have a fine stock of bedding plants. 



Max Kaiser has the finest stock of 

 rambler and other roses for Easter in 

 the Twin Cities. F. E. B. 



Garrettsvile, O. — H. J. Alford Co. 

 has material on the ground for two 

 connected houses, each 29x143, six feet 

 to the gutter and thirteen and one-half 

 feet to the ridge.
