The Florists' Review 



March 8, 1017. 



READY NOW' 



HYACINTHS, DArrODILS, TULIPS, 3^ in. pots, 



$6.30 per 100, 1 o. b. Chicago 



The root development is complete and shoots started — just brought in from 

 field beds. Hyacinths run one to a pot. Daffodils and Tulips will average three 

 flowers to the pot. These are shipped in 100 lots in paper pots, and are ready for 

 forcing in time for Easter. 



JUST AS CHEAP AS THE BULBS - ONLY SELECTED STOCK 



Order your shipment immediately, as the plants are immune from frost when 

 shipped in this semi-developed state. Retail florists who have no greenhouses can 

 force these Hyacinths, Daffodils and Tulips in their store windows. Your customers 

 will take advantage of this new ottering to prolong the season in their homes. To 

 be successful in this plan, order your supply at once.

The Market. 



Last week fouml the market well 

 stocked and business a bit slow. Car- 

 nations are in a glut, eoming in much 

 faster tlian they ean I)e sold. Not niutdi 

 can be said for the quality of carnations 

 in this vicinity. Sweet peas arrive in 

 great quantities, the best coming from 

 Saginaw. The local growers apparently 

 have the quantity but not the quality. 

 ("lioice snajKlragons come in each day 

 and (ind a ready sale. Roses are of 

 splendid quality. There are j)lenty of 

 spring flowers, which retail easily. 



Various Notes. 



The Detroit Floiists ' Bowling Club 

 lost one game to the Cleveland bowlers, 

 at Clevelan(^, last week. This defeat 

 gave the Cleveland Florists' Bowling 

 Club possession of the cup, the Cleve- 

 l.'iiid team winning four out of seven 

 ganu's.

 ness. Those wlu) have seen it say it is 

 most attractive. H. T. 



NEWARK, N. J. 



The Market. 



Last we(>k saw a greater influx of 

 bulbous stock, especially of hyacinths, 

 wlii(di heretofore have not been too ])len- 

 tiful. '"arnations now are jjientiful and 

 of good quality. Sweet ]ieas are suf- 

 ficient for tiie demand and of good qual- 

 ity. The Spencers, of course, are the 

 most popular. Violets are of good qual 

 ity and ro'^es have improved greatly. 

 The jirices of most flowers keej) up well. 

 The \ olume of business is good, but not 

 lushing. Growers are looking for a good 

 si)ring trade. 



Various Notes. 



The Newark Rotary Club, of whicii 

 Henry Strobel! is the florist member, 

 had an exhibit in the ballroom of the 

 lif)beit Treat hotel last week, each mem- 

 b<'r gi\'ini; an exhibit of his line of gO'^ds.
