The Florists' Review 



January 11, 1917. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



The market is heavily supplied with 

 all kinds of stock. Eeceipts are so 

 heavy that it is impossible to clean up 

 anything readily, and prices have taken 

 a decided drop. Eoses are extremely 

 plentiful and excellent blooms may be 

 had in quantity, in all seasonable varie- 

 ties. Carnations, too, are plentiful. 

 Easter lilies are in heavy supply and 

 sweet peas are becoming more abun- 

 dant. The butterfly varieties have been 

 selling well. Valley and orchid receipts 

 are able to take care of present de- 

 mands. Violets are in 'fair supply. 

 Paper "White narcissi are coming into 

 the market in good quantities and their 

 prices have dropped to the rock-bottom 

 level. Other offerings are snapdragons, 

 callas, rubrums, calendulas, primroses, 

 wallflowers and forget-me-nots. Greens 

 are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



C. E. Critchell has been finding a 

 good market for his sweet peas. 



Samuel Batson, of Kalamazoo, Mich., 

 shipped the first of his primroses, wall- 

 flowers and forget-me-nots to L. H. 

 Kyrk a fortnight ago. 



David E. "Wooley, who represents P. J. 

 Olinger, left this week on an extended 

 trip through Ohio and Indiana. 



The Bloomhurst Floral Co., of Lock- 

 land, is cutting some excellent carna- 

 tions. 0. H. H.

The Markets. 



Now that some of the figures are 

 available, the holiday business is re- 

 ported as being in excess of that of 

 any former year. 



Trade last week was good. Stock of 

 all kinds is plentiful and prices are 

 lower. Some fine Beauties and Eussell 

 roses are offered; Ophelia is a little on 

 the short side, but other roses are in 

 good supply. Carnations are in abun- 

 dance, also lilies, sweet peas. Paper 

 Whites, violets, etc. Cyclamen and 

 primrose plants are plenteous. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Tearney, of the Bills Floral Co., 

 had a fine window display of azaleas, 

 cyclamens and ferns. She reports the 

 sale of approximately 600 cyclamen 

 plants at Christmas. 



Forber & Bird say business is better 

 than that of other years. They have 

 added canary birds as a side line. Last 

 week they offered Golden Spur narcissi, 

 the first seen here so far. 



Miss M. Woltman reports business 

 good, with cyclamens the best sellers in 

 potted plants. 



Julius Staack & Sons had a big holi- 

 day trade, disposing of 2,800 roses and 

 8,000 carnations, in addition to a big 

 sale of other items. W. G.
