 a delightful trip.

 large wedding decoration in that city.

 their contract for a year wath Tait's 

 restaurant, one of the largest accounts

 baskets. Spot lights were installed in 

 the windows to bring out the colors. 



David Lichtenstein, the Terminal 

 Florist, is getting full benefit of the

PACIFIC NURSERIES 



COLMA. Sas Mate* Co., CALIFORNIA 



Society of California, is making a tour 

 of the northwest, the principal object of 

 which is to invite growers of that sec- 

 tion to participate in the Dahlia show 

 which will be held at the Palace hotel 

 in this city September 4 to 6. 



S. H. G. 



LOS ANGELES, CAL. 



The Market. 



The holiday feeling is in the air and 

 the mountains, streams and beaches are 

 more thought of and talked about than 

 flowers. With it all there has been a 

 fair demand, principally for wedding 

 and funeral work. The shipping business 

 has diminished until there is little do- 

 ing, and if there were good business, 

 the quality of much of the stock is such 

 that most of the long-distance ship- 

 ments would be out of the question. 

 Gladioli are good again, having with- 

 stood the heat well, but most of the 

 outdoor stock is valueless. Sweet peas 

 are more plentiful, but not particularly 

 good. Other flowers are fairly good, but 

 meet with little demand. 



Various Notes. 



Broomall's dahlia farm, at Eagle 

 Rock, is sending in some good flowers

of the true Golden West, a flower paler 

 in color than some others sent out under 

 tliis name, but witli stiffer stems and of 

 good lasting qualities. Mr. Broomall 

 was the originator of this and many 

 other fine dahlias. 



Robert Newcomb, representative of 

 the American Bulb Co., Chicago, ar- 

 rived in this city June 29. He reports 

 good business on his trip out and says 

 he is going to spend a day or two with 

 his folks in San Dinias before laying 

 siege to Los Angeles. 



Miss Kate Parsons, of Fresno, made 

 a trip to Los Angeles this week, partly 

 on account of the illness of her sister, 

 but also to look up stock. She reports 

 business as being exceptionally good 

 for the heated term. 



A. F. Borden, of the Redondo Floral 

 Co., has been taking a few days off fin- 

 ishing up the home gardening that he 

 started early in the year. Albert Knopf 

 is going to start out later and build him- 

 self a summer cottage on his lemon 

 ranch in Orange county. Mr. Knopf 

 says he is not a good carpenter. If the 

 boards are cut to fit he can use the 

 little hammer, but not for knocking the 

 other fellow. 



Fred Sperry, of the L. A. Floral Co., 

 took a short vacation over the Fourth.
