The Florists^ Review 



JuNH 19. 1919. 



and two smaller ones, filled with Colum- 

 bia roses. At either side was a box 

 hedge of huckleberry and the first white 

 chrysanthemums of the season. Quanti- 

 ties of Columbia roses, gladioli and 

 larkspurs were used throughout the 

 house. The bride's bouquet was of 

 phalsenopsis and gardenias. A supple- 

 mentary decoration was also carried out 

 in the Italian room of the St. Francis 

 hotel, where a dinner dance was held 

 after the wedding. The walls were 

 banked with oak leaves, and there were 

 flowers and baskets for sixteen tables, 

 each seating a dozen or more people. 

 Mr. Stein, will leave for a three weeks' 

 camping trip in Lake county about July 

 15. Patrick Orr, of his staff, plans a 

 month's vacation in the Big Meadows, 

 starting the first of July. Charles Clark 

 is back on duty after being on the sick 

 list. 



Mrs. Bartlett is no longer identified 

 with Julius Eppstein in the St. Francis 

 hotel. Miss Rene Crosswaite, who has 

 charge of this stand, says they keep 

 fairly busy. 



The funeral of Jesse W. Lilienthal 

 brought a rush of work to most of the 

 downtown florists, as was attested by 

 the multitude of flowers massed around 

 the casket at the Temple Emanu-El, 

 where services were held. The high al- 

 tar was a mass of blooms, while on 

 either side stood and hung wreaths, 

 clusters and elaborate designs of the 

 choicest flowers the market afforded. 

 These also extended along the side from 

 altar to entrance, and even then there 

 were piles of flowers in the vestries 

 which could not find a place in the main 

 body of the synagogue. This unusual 

 demand completely cleaned up the sup- 

 ply of orchids for several days. The 

 Lilienthal pall was made by Podesta & 

 Baldocchi. American Beauty roses were 

 the only flowers used. 



Several rush days of funeral work at 

 her Geary street store, and a well sus- 

 tained demand for cut flowers at her 

 hotel stands, have kept Miss Recardie 

 Lee Murray's business lip to a satisfac- 

 tory figure so far this month. She plans 

 to spend next week at Santa Cruz. 



C. Kooyman A Co. are concentrating 

 on bulb business just now with good 

 results, having a large supply of Cali- 

 fornia-grown Freesia Purity, narcissi, 

 amaryllis and callas to offer. 



A. J. Rossi, of Pelicano, Rossi & Co., 

 has returned from a vacation in the Yo- 

 semite. The store force, however, is 

 still depleted, P. Pagano, Nicholas 

 Calavera and William de Brunn all be- 

 ing away on account of illness. 



After residing in Oakland for several 

 years, F. T. Schlotzhauer, of the Fran- 

 cis Floral Co., Sutter and Powell streets, 

 has purchased a beautiful new home at 

 3665 Clay street, in order to be nearer 

 his business. He has erected a fine 

 garage on the premises and finds it a 

 great convenience to have only a 15- 

 minute drive between his house and 

 store. 



Mrs. Copeland, who operates the 

 Misses Hannon Store on Sutter street, 

 says that weddings and other decora- 

 tions have kept business from slumping 

 so far this month. She has increased 

 her staff by securing the services of Mr. 

 Baptiste. 



George Ventura, with Albert O. Stein 

 for six or seven years, has arranged to 

 go into business for himself, having pur- 

 chased the shop of the Anchor Floral 

 Co. at 2001 Sutter street, near Fillmore. 

 He took charge of the place a few days
