The Florists' Review 



March 1, 1917. 



BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



Business last week was active, but on 

 tlic arrival of Lent a change in the mar- 

 ket was noticeable. The week opened 

 with good weather and considerable 

 more sunshine tlian usual, which had a 

 tendency to make stock more plentiful. 

 jVIany of the smaller concerns which 

 grow some of their own stock were bene- 

 fited by the weather. 



American Beauties, although having 

 eased up somewhat in quantity, are still 

 clinging to the scarce side. Other varie- 

 ties of roses are more plentiful and their 

 quality is exceptionally good. Easter 

 lilies arc more plentiful. Carnations, 

 too, are more abundant, with prices re- 

 maining the same. Sweet peas now are 

 extra nice, but limited in quantity. 

 Jonquils, daffodils and tulips are more 

 than jdentiful, but a lively demand for 

 them prevails. Violets are much the 

 same. Freesias, snapdragons, Jioniau 

 liyacinths and calendulas make up the 

 niiscellaneous list. Adiantum Croweanum 

 and smilax are sufficient for all present 

 demands. 



Various Notes. 



A recent visitor to Buffalo was C! J. 

 Ford, with A. Herrmann, of New York. 



Last week W. J. Palmer had a heavy 

 run of funeral work, most of it goinw to 

 Collins, N. Y. Eobcrt Dobbie has boen 

 sick for the last two weeks from bron- 

 chitis. A. E. 



NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Business is better tlian it has been 

 for some time. Flowers of all kinds are 

 more ]ileiitiful and much cheaper. Vio- 

 lets are of good quality and move stead- 

 ily. Hweet peas are lower priced and 

 consequently sell better. The quality 

 is still good. 



Various Notes. 



William }I. Davenport says business at 

 his store has been much better this 

 month than that of last month. Mr. Dav- 

 enport is cutting some fine Murillo tu- 

 lips, the best to be seen in the city. 



William P. I'ierce reports a good, 

 steadv demand for })lants. 



Julius, the Florist, reports business 

 good, but with Julius it is always good, 



Ernest Chamberlain last week had a 

 most attractive window of bulbous stock. 



S. E. Shaw is sending in some uncom- 

 monly good sweet peas. 



Edward M. Tierce is cutting good ca- 

 lendulas and violets. Mr. I'ierce reports 

 a L'ood (lufintitv of funeral work at his 

 store. ' W. M. I'.
