The Florists^ Review 



OCTOBBE 9, 1919. 



Superb and Progressive. The usual 

 trouble with these perpetual bearers is 

 that they bloom too profusely. I would 

 advise retaining the plants, mulching 

 when cold weather has sealed the ground 

 and removing the mulch about May 1 

 in your latitude. Do not give any fer- 

 tilizer at all when stirring the ground; 

 a little starvation may make them 

 flower. When you are sure the plants 

 will flower, give them a top-dressing of 

 sheep manure or some good leaf -produc- 

 ing plant food, and as the berries begin 

 to set scatter a little nitrate of potash 

 (saltpeter) among them to help build 

 up the fruit. G. W.

The Market. 



Business was rather dull during Sep- 

 tember, but an early improvement is 

 looked for on account of rains which 

 have damaged outdoor flowers. Asters 

 are about gone and those which are be- 

 ing cut are of poor quality. Gladioli are 

 beginning to slow up and a ready mar- 

 ket is found for all to be had. Boses 

 are coming on well and all indications 

 point to the best roses in the history of 

 the business. Columbia finds a ready 

 market and some of the other varieties 

 are moving well, but the supply is far 

 in excess of the demand. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are selling well, the stock being 

 especially good. A few carnations can 

 be had, but the stems are still short. 

 However, it looks as if the stock would 

 be of good quality in about two weeks. 

 Outdoor flowers, such as Cecile Brunner 

 roses, snapdragons, buddleia and bella- 

 donna, may be had in small quantities, 

 but the stock is poor and will soon be 

 gone.
