The Florists' Review 



\ 



May 11, 1916. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



The warm weather last week brought 

 out an extra large supply of cut flowers 

 and, other than funeral work, litHe 

 business was done in this line. Conse- 

 quently the market was oversupplied 

 and prices reached the low level of the 

 season. Eoses in particular were too 

 plentiful and at the close of the week 

 the street boys had innumerable quan- 

 tities. Lilacs are in their prime and 

 are to be had on every street corner. 

 Lilies, both calla and Easter, were hard 

 to move at any price. Some good Dar- 

 win tulips are coming in. Peas have 

 shortened in stem and dropped in price, 

 and keep poorly. Sales of bedding 

 stock are increasing daily and those 

 who handle this line are busy. 



Various Notes. 



Edward Kress is proudly exhibiting 

 the silver medal awarded him by the 

 American Eose Society for his red out- 

 door rose. Defiance, which scored eighty- 

 five points at the Hartford test garden. 



Isaac H. Moss reports an extraordi- 

 narily busy season in shrubs and has 

 extra men working to keep up with the 

 orders. 



Fred C. Bauer had a house full of 

 garden roses in pots, but he has moved 

 them all at this early date. 



Word was received here of the death 

 of William B. Sands, Jr., which oc- 

 curred at the ranch at Haswell, Colo., 

 May 6. Mr. Sands was the son of the 

 late William B. and Florence M. Sands, 

 and formerly was in business with his 

 father near Lakeside, After the death 

 of his father, a few years ago, Mr. 

 Sands attempted to carry on the busi- 

 ness, but his health failed him and he 

 was compelled to give it up and seek a 

 more favorable climate. He was born 

 in Baltimore. He is survived by his 

 wife, three brothers and one sister. 



The regular meeting of the Gardeners ' 

 and Florists' Club was held May 8, 

 President Hamilton in the chair. The 

 night was warm and the attendance 

 light. No business of importance was 

 transacted. W. F. E. 



Altoona, Pa. — During Easter week 

 Myers Bros, rented a vacant hotel and 

 cleverly arranged each room with one 

 kind of plants. There was a rose room, 

 a tulip and narcissus room, etc., all of 

 which pleased the people and helped 

 greatly to move the stock.
