The Florists^ Review 



September 16, 1920 



RANUNCULUS 



IMPROVED GIANT HYBRIDS 



A spleadid strain of Ranunculus for florists' use brought to perfection after many years of careful selection, 

 producing over 75 per cent double and semi-double flowers in the most pleasing colors; showing stems from 18 

 to 30 inches long; an excellent cut flower and a good keeper, also highly desirable for bedding. We have grown 

 this variety several seasons, for the cut-flower market, and consider it one of our most profitable crops. Our 

 books show that flowers from this strain brought $4.00 per 100 on the Lob Angeles market. 



PRICES- postpaid anywhere in the United States-par 1000, $25.00; p«r 100, $3.00. 



Cash with order from unknown correspondents.

Various Notes. 



Ernest Meyers, for some time in 

 charge of the Hollywood Oardens green- 

 houses and one of the best known 

 growers in the northwest, has branched 

 out in business for himself. He is put- 

 ting up greenhouses in the Bainier val- 

 ley. He has been succeeded by Charles 

 Tabel, who recently came here from 

 Kansas City. 



The Woodlawn Flower shop showed a 

 most effective Labor day window, de- 

 signed and installed by Bobert Simmons. 

 At the back of the wmdow an arch and 

 tablet painted to represent marble were 

 erected. The tablet was inscribed "In 

 Honor of the Great American Working- 

 man" and announced "His Achieve- 

 ments: Pennsylvania Bailroad, Panama 

 Canal, Woolworth Building, Lincoln 

 Highway, Battleship New Mexico, 

 Brooklyn Bridge." Various combina- 

 tion baskets were grouped in the fore- 

 ground. 



Silvio Bosaia, of San Francisco, is in 

 the northwest visiting his brothers. He 

 will probably be here the greater part of 

 a month, as he plans to spend most of his 

 vacation here. Bosaia Bros, attracted 

 attention in their window last week by 

 the use of a full-grown grapefruit tree 

 mounted in a large tub, with a consid- 

 erable quantity of fruit practically 

 ripe. 



Miss Wharton, of the Hollywood Gar- 

 dens, has returned from a month 's vaca- 

 tion trip to points about San Francisco 

 bay. This firm is showing some nice 

 asters and Golden Glow mums and will 

 soon have Crusader roses of its own 

 growing. 



Tom Bhoades, formerly with the 

 Woodlawn Flower Shop, has returned 

 from an extended eastern stay and, 

 after a vacation trip, will resume work 

 in a local shop. 



The Woodlawn Park Floral Co. is 

 sending in some nice Bussell and Colum- 

 bia roses. The Orpheum Floral Co. has 

 been featuring Bussell roses with good 

 results. 



Anna J. Burns, of the Burns Floral 

 Co., was recently a visitor at Olympia, 

 where she went on business. H. M. 



Pnllnum, Wash. — H. Hoffman, of 

 Cromwell, Conn., a graduate of Cor- 

 nell University, has been appointed 

 florist for the Washington State Col- 

 lege and will assume his new work at 

 on«M'.
