The Florists^ Review 



October 9, 1919. 



WASHINGTON, D. 0. 



The Market. 



Some good Beauties are arriving now. 

 They are selling at from $5 to $7 per 

 dozen. The supply of roses has increased 

 during the last week. Orchids are scarce 

 and are bringing $1.50 each. The car- 

 nation supply is increasing. Dahlias are 

 in abundance and can be bought at al- 

 most one's own price. 



Various Notes. 



The florists have been busy holding 

 meetings to make arrangements for 

 "Say It with Flowers" week, which will 

 take place during the first week in No- 

 vember. This event will be widely ad- 

 vertised in many ways throughout the 

 city. A beautiful poster has been pre- 

 pared by the poster committee. Albert 

 Schnell and O. A. C. Oehmler, the finance 

 committee, report that money is coming 

 in fast. From all views, this campaign 

 will be a great success. 



J. A. Phillips has sold his lease and 

 is going out of the florists' business. 



Even during the quiet months George 

 C. Shaflfer 's floor is almost always cov- 

 ered with floral pieces ready for de- 

 livery. 



Herbert Sauber, of Z. D. Blackistone's 

 force, has just returned from a trip 

 through New York. 



Mrs. William Marche deserves a large 

 amount of credit for the way she has 

 taken hold of the business of her late 

 husband. 



J. H. Small & Sons have had several 

 large casket covers of late. 



The Leo Niessen Co. is receiving a 

 fine grade of Beauties for this time of 

 the year. 



Gude Bros. Co. is cutting exception- 

 ally good Columbia and Red Radiance 

 roses. 



George Comloy has recently returned 

 from Canada, where he visited his 

 mother. 



The Louise Flower Shop has a unique 

 display, consisting of a miniature can- 

 yon and waterfalls. This is decorated 

 with L'vorgreens and at night is illu- 

 minated by invisible green lights. There 

 are about fifty birds in the window, of 

 many varieties. It is one of the most 

 striking and original windows that have 

 ever been exhibited in Washington.
