The Florists^ Review 



July 12, 1917. 



to procure, and as a result many sub- 

 stitutes are used. Callas and Easter 

 lilies are not so plentiful as a few 

 weeks ago, but the supply nevertheless 

 is adequate. Sweet peas are flooding 

 the market. 



Carnations probably have suffered 

 more than any other flower from the 

 intense heat, and a few weeks will see 

 the finish for the season. Snapdragons 

 are of fair quality and meet with a 

 good call. Gladioli at present are 

 scarce and the prices are high. There 

 are many outdoor flowers, and all of 

 them serve a good purpose one way or 

 another. Green goods of all seasonable 

 kinds are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Catherine Vesey has returned 

 from a month 's visit to New York and 

 other eastern points. 



Mr. and Mrs. Henry Freese, of the 

 New Haven Floral Co., have gone on 

 a vacation to Detroit.

 shown at the Doswell Floral Co. store.

 work last week.

 engaged in replanting roses. Mr.

 mand normal. W. J. Vesey, Jr., has re- 

 turned from a motor trip to Indian- 

 apolis.
