FORT WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Last week we experienced the coldest 

 weather of the winter. Notwithstand- 

 ing this, business was exceedingly act' 

 ive and the demand was stronger than 

 that of any week this season, with the 

 exception of holiday week. The days 

 have been dark and this, added to the 

 extreme cold, has made the shortage of 

 carnations and roses more marked. 

 Bulbous stock, however, has filled in 

 the breach; tulips, daffodils and Dutch 

 hyacinths are used in decorative work 

 to a great extent. Callas and Easter 

 lilies are utilized for funeral clusters. 



Snapdragons also are helping out in 

 the shortage of roses. Cattleyas are 

 plentiful and sweet peas are abundant 

 in the Spencer varieties. Violets meet 

 with a good call, both singles and dou- 

 bles. Azaleas are coming to the front 

 in the pink and white varieties, and 

 rhododendrons are making a good show- 

 ing. Potted freesias, Golden Spur daffo- 

 dils, baby primroses, cyclamens and yel- 

 low narcissi are selling well. 



Various Notes. 



The Doswell Floral Co. last week had 

 a fine window display of bulbous flowers. 

 This company is having a heavy run on 

 funeral work. 



Miss Catherine Vesey spent last week 

 at Muncie, Ind., the guest of her sister. 



Clem Lanternier is on the sick list 

 from stomach trouble and has been put 

 on a diet for three weeks. 



Miss Helen Patten, proprietress of 

 the Patten Flower Shop, Toledo, O., 

 spent several days here last week, visit- 

 ing her mother, Mrs. Mary Patten, and 

 other relatives. Miss Patten reports that 

 business in Toledo is booming, but the flo- 

 rists are experiencing a serious shortage 

 of stock. 



Some excellent Ophelia and Russell 

 roses are being sent to this market from 

 the F. J. Knecht & Co. greenhouses 

 south of the city. Their carnations in 

 the Enchantress varieties are also of 

 fine quality. 



Markey Bros, have their azaleas in 

 fine shape now and their bulbous stock 

 from the Hale avenue greenhouses is 

 showing up well. Funeral work has 

 been in heavy demand. 



The Flick Floral Co. is advertising in 

 the trolley cars. This concern had a 

 number of large decorations last week. 

 Some fine rhododendrons, azaleas and 

 snapdragons were noted at this estab- 

 lishment. B. F.
