The Florists^ Review 



Apbil 27, 1916. 



Various Notes. 



The Eeview's advertisers are again 

 thankful for the many telegraph orders 

 received for Easter. F. H. Weber says 

 his advertisement paid him especially 

 well. 



George Waldbart's Easter business 

 was large. He was completely sold out 

 of blooming plants early Sunday morn- 

 ing. Extra fine rhododendrons, azaleas 

 and Tausendschon roses were seen here. 



Fred C. Weber did a hustling Easter 

 business and disposed of a tremendous 

 amount of stock. His specimen rambler 

 roses, lilies, rhododendrons, azaleas and 

 other plants were equal to the best seen 

 anywhere. 



Miss M. S. Newman and the Ayres 

 Floral Co. had a splendid trade. Bulb- 

 ous stock in pans, hydrangeas, lilies 

 and azaleas had a great sale at these 

 places. The pot plant business greatly 

 exceeded that in cut flowers. 



The Kelley Floral Co. and Ostertag 

 Bros, used vacant stores as annexes for 

 the large plant trade, which was the 

 best in years. 



A big Easter rush, the biggest in 

 their experience, was reported by 

 Grimm & Gorly. Their enlarged store 

 looked like a flower show. 



David Geddis, manager of Vander- 

 voort's flower department, showed some 

 of the finest blooming plants in gay 

 Easter dress. .He reports a good sale 

 of lily plants at 50 cents each. 



E. W. Guy, the St. Clair Floral Co., 

 Gust Grossart and' Henry Emunds, all 

 leading Belleville florists, say Easter 

 trade was as good as any in the past. 

 Blooming plants, as usual, had the call. 



C. Young & Sons Co., at Fourteenth 

 and Olive streets, attracted the atten- 

 tion of the Easter plant buyers with a 

 magnificent plant display. 



Fred H. Weber's show house was 

 ablaze with a handsome plant display, 

 which brought him good returns in 

 Easter orders. 



Sanders, Young Bros., J. W. Boerm, 

 Kalisch Bros. Floral Co. and H. Young 

 & Son report a large business in all 

 lines. 



In the south end, Windier, Schoenle, 

 Eggeling, Beyer and Bergstennann re- 

 port a great sale of plants. Lilies, as 

 usual, had the call. Attractive window 

 displays were seen at these stores. 



Kruse, Bruenig and Meyer had excel- 

 lent displays in their show houses and 

 all did a rushing business last week. 



The north end florists, the Bentzen 

 Floral Co., Brix, Mullanphy, Koenig 

 Floral Co. and Meinhardt, had the usual 

 heavy Easter business. Cut flowers and 

 plants sold well. 



The Schackelford Nursery Co. sup- 

 plied the west end florists with a large 

 quantity of excellent outdoor bulbous 

 stock. The daffodils and Darwin tulips 

 were of extra fine quality. 



The Retail Florists' Association held 

 its monthly meeting April 17, at the 

 Mission Inn Garden. Owing to the 

 Easter preparations, the attendance was 

 small. No business of importance was 

 transacted, but all matters were laid 

 aside for the next meeting. May 15. 



George Angermueller 's Easter ship- 

 ping orders in supplies were larger than 

 ever. He says the southwestern florists 

 are largely calling on this market for 

 supplies and cut flowers. 



The Windier Wholesale Floral Co. re- 

 ceived a large shipment of florists' sup- 

 plies last week, in good time for Eas- 

 ter demands. 



C. A. Kuehn has been marketing 

 some extra fine valley, grown by Henry
