The Florists^ Review 



June 5, 1919. 



Nums and Poinsettias 



Our list of Chrysanthemums is composed of the best commer- 

 cial sorts. We will have a fine lot of young plants established 

 in pots, ready to ship at benching time. $40.00 per thousand. 



Last year we declined orders for as many Poinsettia Plants as 

 we delivered. We have trebled our propagating stock this year. 

 So come along with your orders. We root them as readily 

 as Coleus. $8.00 per hundred; $75.00 per thousand. 



Have you placed your order for our new Carnation, Ruth Baur, for 1920 delivery? 

 Write us, too, for field-grown plants of standard varieties to bench this summer.

The Market. 



Local florists, especially those located 

 near cemeteries, report an excellent 

 Memorial day business. Many thou- 

 sands of potted geraniums were sold. 

 Other potted plants suitable for the 

 decoration of graves were disposed of 

 in smaller quantities. Gladioli have 

 just made their appearance in the local 

 market. Peonies, which came in a cou- 

 l)le of weeks ago, have improved in 

 quality greatly as the result of more 

 sunny weather. The quantity of peonies 

 coming into the market has greatly in- 

 creased. Prices still keep up. Sweet 

 peas are quite plentiful at the present 

 time and are of excellent quality.
