The Florists' Review 



JONH 8, 1»16. 



MINITEAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Last week was an extremely long one 

 for florists. The work of decorating 

 the cemeteries Memorial day called for 

 the best efforts of the entire trade in 

 the city. Attractive sprays, wreaths 

 and emblems were fashioned of flowers 

 popular at this time of the year. There 

 were elaborate fillings of vases, birch- 

 wood boxes and other receptacles of 

 plants. 



There has been much business in dec- 

 orations for weddings, graduations and 

 other festivities occurring at this time 

 of the year. The retailers now are find- 

 ing it difficult to obtain flowers, more 

 especially plants, which are decidedly 

 scarce. Marguerites, vincas and gera- 

 niums of first-class quality really are 

 not to be had. 



Various Notes. 



Hans Eosacker has a splendid stock 

 of vincas, but, alas, these he requires 

 for his own orders. 



The Lakewood Cemetery Greenhouses 

 sold most of the plants for garden 

 vases and window boxes. They had an 

 extremely busy week. 



The city had splendid weather Deco- 

 ration day and all the stores put up fine 

 window displays. 



"William F. Holmes had a handsome 

 appearing store last week. Among the 

 roses and carnations were many spring 

 flowers. Here, too, was a display of 

 unique novelties. 



Miss H. B. Whitted had a fine dis- 

 play of sea plants, cut fiowers, ferns, 

 etc. Pretty effects were made with or- 

 chids, roses, lilies and palms. 

 - The Mazey Floral Co. store is a pret- 

 ty spot. Situated at Marquette and 

 Eighth streets, in a district of fine 

 buildings, the tastefully decorated win- 

 dows make a good showing. 



O. C. Swanson had a splendid display 

 of gladioli last week. 



Baskets of sweet peas, valley and 

 roses in the window of the Sunshine 

 Florist last week caught the eye of 

 every passer-by. F. E. B.
