The Florists' Review 





Adqdst 24. 1916. 



DENVER, COLO. 



Tho Market. 



Business has been unusually good for 

 August and shows a marked improve- 

 ment over that of last August. The 

 unusually hot weather of July and the 

 early part of Augfust, and the heavy 

 rains of a week ago, played havoc with 

 the sweet peas. There are no good 

 ones to be had now. Asters are im- 

 proving and the first really good ones 

 came in last week. Gladioli are arriv- 

 ing in large quantities and find a ready 

 market. Panama and Mrs. Francis King 

 rule the market, while America is de- 

 cidedly poor this year. Dahlias are 

 plentiful and of good quality. Snap- 

 dragons are good, .but there is no call 

 for them. Carnations are poor, except 

 the whites and there are not nearly 

 enough of them to meet the demand. 



Roses are good and there are just 

 about enough of them to allow the re- 

 tailers to clean up every day. Hoosier 

 Beauty, Russell and Ophelia roses are 

 especially good. 



Various Notes. 



Robert Kurth, foreman of the Park 

 Floral Co. greenhouses, was the only 

 one from Denver who attended the con- 

 vention at Houston. All hands at the 

 Park Floral Co. store were busy August 

 19 with work for a large out-of-town 

 funeral. 



W. W. Willmore, Jr., and R. T. Davis, 

 Jr., are shipping large quantities of 

 garden flowers, especially gladioli, to 

 I^ansas City. 



W. D. Black is contemplating a trip 

 to Chicago, but he is afraid of the hot 

 weather there — "It's a privilege to live 

 in Colorado." R. S. 



BABABOO, WIS. 



E. T. Ross has purchased a large 

 Kroeschell boiler and will add another 

 house to his range of glass this fall. 



William Toole & Son, of the Hardy 

 Plant and Pansy Farm, this fall expect 

 to harvest a heavy crop of pansy seed 

 of their popular ' * Giant Prize Strain. ' ' 

 They have several interesting new va- 

 rieties which they originated. 



C. A. Hoffmann, of Hoffmann 's Dutch 

 Bulb House, reports prospects good for 

 a heavy trade in bulbs this fall. 



W. A. T. 



Thief Biver Falls, Minn. — Martin 

 Bothun and William J. Olson are erect- 

 ing two greenhouses here. 



St. Cloud, Miim. — A large storage 

 room has been annexed to the estab- 

 lishment of the Kindler Floral Co., and 

 a new display and storage refrigerator 

 has been installed.

 occurs with hard putty.
