The Florists* Review 



Jdnb 19, 1919. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Business was good the first part of 

 the week, but dragged the latter part. 

 Flowers, therefore, since not in great 

 demand, are in large supply. Boses in 

 quantities are available. Carnations 

 are plentiful, the best bringing $4, but 

 other grades can be purchased at one's 

 own price. The great majority are of 

 poor quality. 



Daisies range from 75 cents to $1.50 

 per hundred, and are plentiful. Del- 

 phinium is good, but moves slowly. 

 Feverfew, candytuft, snapdragons, a 

 few Easter lilies and baby's breath 

 complete the market. 



Green goods are none too abundant. 

 The bedding season is nearing its close, 

 and almost all local tradesmen have 

 enjoyed a successful season. 



Various Notes. 



John Bieman has a new automobile. 



Bobert Fohl has been working on a 

 strain of daisies for some time, and now 

 has succeeded in working up a fine one 

 that has enormous white blooms, borne 

 on long, stiff stems. In many cases there 

 are as many as 200 blooms on one 

 plant. He has many other daisies of hia 

 own strain and from these different va- 

 rieties can cut daisies from Memorial 

 day until September. 



The various florists had big busi- 

 ness last week while the Shriners' con- 

 clave was at its height. The Circle 

 Flower Shop decorated the lobby at the 

 Claypool hotel for the New Orleans 

 delegation. Bertermann Bros. Co. had 

 several decorations, floats for the pa- 

 rade, etc. This firm exhibited a large 

 Shriner design, all made of flowers, in 

 front of the store. A. Wiegand's Sons 

 Co. had numerous decorations for ban- 

 quets, and calls for corsages and bas- 

 kets. Business everywhere was good. 



Bertermann Bros. Co. auctioned off 

 three of the greenhouses June 14. The 

 remainder will be auctioned off this 

 week. 



Visitors last week included several 

 Shriners, who came for the festivities. 

 Among these were Mr. Gralaboro and 

 Mr. Kirkhoff, of Philadelphia; J. W. 

 Stokes, of Springfield, Mo.; Mr. Baur, 

 of Eaton, Ind. I. Eosnosky called on 

 the trade. E. E. T.
