The Florists^ Review 



OcTOBEii 25, 1917. 



Easter lilies continue short and bring 

 $1.50 per dozen. A few callas have 

 helped out. Carnations are of good 

 quality, but somehow will not increase 

 in quantity. During previous years at 

 the chrysanthemum season, carnations 

 did well at $1.50 and $2 per hundred. 

 This year they bring $2 and $3, with a 

 few extra selects making $4 per hun- 

 dred. Violets are more satisfactory, at 

 (50 cents i)er liundred. Orchids are in 

 good supply and move at the same price, 

 $7.50 per dozen. 



The green goods market is in satis- 

 factory oondition. Smilax, fern leaves, 

 plumosus and Spren'geri are plentiful. 

 The potted plant line lias had a few 

 additions, the Jerusalem cherries and 

 jiotted chrysanthemum plants gaining 

 in favor.
