The Florists' Review 



July 6, 1916. 



NEWARK, N. J. 



The Market. 



Considering the time of the year, 

 prices have kept up well during the 

 last ten days. As a rule flower prices 

 in this market take a tumble July 1, 

 as weddings, graduations and other fac- 

 tors that create a demand for stock 

 at this time are almost over. 



Valley is scarce now; it brings $6 

 to $8 per hundred. Some of the best 

 goes as high as $10. Eoses are good, ex- 

 tra quality whites, Ophelias and Sun- 

 bursts marking time at $8 per hundred.' 

 On account of the cold, rainy weather, 

 outdoor roses have been later than usual, 

 and this has served to keep up the price 

 of the greenhouse - grown varieties. 

 Peonies are gone, save a few cold stor- 

 age ones, which are of poor grade and 

 not in much demand. Gladioli are com- 

 ing into the market in small lots, but 

 their quality is not good as yet. There 

 does not seem to be much of a demand 

 for them. Sweet peas are arriving in 

 considerable quantities and are reason- 

 able in price. Carnations are keeping 

 up well, the quality of some of the 

 stock being exceptionally good for this 

 season. Orchids are cheap, making 25 

 cents each. Callas are low-priced. Eas- 

 ter lilies are of fine quality for this 

 season and bring a fair price. Coreop- 

 sis, centaureas, sweet williams, daisies, 

 marigolds and other seasonable flowers 

 are abundant. 



Various Notes. 



Philips Bros, report business good, 

 with much wedding and funeral work. 



Penek 's Flower Market, at Broad and 

 Market streets, has been making a spe- 

 cialty of graduation bouquets and bas- 

 kets. 



Incorporation papers have been filed 

 by the Garfield Floral Co., of Garfield. 

 The authorized capital stock is $45,- 

 000, the incorporators being Isidor and 

 Samuel Shemin and Max J. Weinman. 



R. Plebany, of Irvington, reports a 

 fine season. He finds great difficulty 

 in getting enough workmen for his out- 

 door plantings, although he is offering 

 unusually high wages. R. B. M. 



Grove City, Pa.— D. E. Raver, a 

 grower of gladioli, is building a small 

 greenhouse. He will dispose of his 

 products to a 5 and 10-cent store here.

 "The Wanamaker Boston Fern" 

 A "sport" from Nephrolepis Scholzell, with 

 longer, narrower, gracefully drooping fronds. It 

 is not so compact in growth as Scholzell, and 

 therefore does not decay in the center, and is a 

 durable house fern. It is a rapid grower, making 

 an abundance of fronds, and is quite distinct 

 from any other Nephrolepis.
