The Florists' Review 



Apkil 20, 1916. 



holder being J. H. Smith, of the Mur- 

 dock Acreage. The company will make 

 a specialty of fruit- and shade trees 

 especially adapted to the Sacramento 

 valley. 



Plans are under way for decorating 

 the streets of Sacramento, Cal., with 

 growing plants and garlands of flow- 

 ers during the spring festival and cause- 

 way celebration in May. 



Louis Motroni looks for a quiet sum- 

 mer as compared with last year, prin- 

 cipally because the people stayed home 

 for the exposition last year, whereas 

 they probably will go to the country as 

 usual this summer. 



At the Art Floral Shop, on Powell 

 street, Mr. Matria reports a big de- 

 mand for fancy basket arrangements.

The Market. 



Business last week was brisk in all 

 lines. No special events are reported, 

 but there was a steady run, which in- 

 dicated improved ftonditions. Carna- 

 tions were somewhat scarce, as some 

 of the largest growers are having only 

 a light cut. Heavy cuts of roses are 

 coming from severaJ ranges and are all 

 disposed of at good prices. Ophelia, 

 Mrs. Aaron Ward, Mrs. Chas. Bussell, 

 Eichmond, Killarney, Chatenay, Cecile 

 Brunner and Hoosier Beauty are the 

 leading varieties. Some splendid sweet 

 peas are being cut and their quality 

 is such as to sell them readily. Forced 

 gladioli have made their appearance. 

 Outdoor daffodils are still offered. 



Asparagus is more plentiful, but 

 there is not a full supply. The cut 

 of orchids has diminished and the flow- 

 ers are not so good as they were a few 

 weeks ago. Cattleya labiata is the 

 producing variety. Silver Pink and 

 Nelrose snapdragons of good quality 

 are seen. Home-grown violets are of- 

 fered, but their quality shows that the 

 season is about over. Gladstone 

 spiraeas, potted Piaster lilies and potted 

 roses are appearing as Easter stock. 

 Potted rhododendrons and azaleas in 

 full bloom are seen in some of the 

 window displays. 



Various Notes. 



A. L. Peterson, of the force at J. J. 

 Butzer's seed store, is the proud father 

 of a son, the first addition to his 

 family. 



Gene Robinson grew some of the best 

 snapdragon now on the market. 



James Forbes returned April 12 from 

 his trip to the National Flower Show. 



Max Smith exhibited some first-class 

 Gladstone spiraeas which were grown 

 at his range. 



The Martin & Forbes Co. is using 

 sprays of Japanese cherry in its win- 

 dow displays and bouquets. The blos- 

 soms are exceedingly attractive. 



Leo Wiedemann, the Bahn & Herbert 

 Co. and the Martin & Forbes Co. are 

 having a good cut of Cecile Brunner 

 roses. 



The Tonseth Floral Co. showed some 

 large genistas ao^ azaleas in full 

 bloom. 



J. J. Butzer has bought a residence at 

 149 Bancroft avenue and is having the 

 house and grounds put in order. He 

 says the location is quite sightly and 

 he anticipates much enjoyment from 

 the view he will have of the snow- 

 covered peaks in the Cascade range.
