The Florists^ Review 



July 17, 1918. 



JtOOHESTEB, N. Y. 



The Market. 



The weather has moderated consider- 

 ably during the last week. Outdoor 

 stock is not so plentiful since the hot 

 spell. Sweet peas are not arriving as 

 fast as they were expected, most of the 

 vines being exceptionally short, and in 

 most cases the stems are short. Del- 

 phinium is used profusely in all the 

 stores for decorative purposes. Excel- 

 lent gladioli, in practically all colors, 

 are seen and command good prices. 

 The demand is larger than the daily 

 shipments. 



Daisies, both yellow and white, gyp- 

 3ophila, hardy snapdragons, coreopsis, 

 gaillardia, mignonette, candytuft and 

 feverfew are all plentiful. 



The supply of carnations is not large 

 and their quality is far from good. 

 American Beauties are not in heavy 

 supply and the demand is light. Or- 

 chids, though of good quality, do not 

 sell at all briskly. There is a heavy 

 supply of all indoor-grown roses, the 

 demand being fairly active. 



Various Notes. 



An artificial fishpond surrounded with 

 aquatic plants and moss occupied the 

 window of H. E. Wilson last week. 



George T. Boucher has a good land- 

 scape effect with ponds, bridges and 

 farmhouses, and imitation shrubbery 

 in the background. 



Alberts the Florist has a new electric 

 sign placed over the front window and 

 doorway of his store. 



Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Werdein are the 

 happy parents of an 8-pound son, born 

 last week. Both mother and baby are 

 doing well. 



The Rosery Flower Store, owned by 

 E. Kendig, of Oswego, N. Y., is closed 

 for the summer months. 



Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Wilson had a 

 family picnic at Durand Eastman park 

 July 9. 



At the trial grounds of James Vick's 

 Sons, at Ogden, N. Y., a large acreage 

 of asters has been planted and many 

 more acres of the late varieties are to 

 be put in. H. J. H.
