The Florists^ Review 



NOTDMBBB 6, 1019. 



Enomoto is receiving large orders from 

 the east for dyed thistles and wood- 

 wardias. 



Holland bulbs have not yet arrived 

 in San Francisco and although the deal- 

 ers are naturally impatient at the delay, 

 there is nothing to do but v?ait.

The Market. 



The outlook never appeared so favor- 

 able for volume of business as it does at 

 present. Funeral work is the big factor 

 in the day's work, though the sale of cut 

 flowers is brisk and there is a good de- 

 mand for attractive baskets. 



Cut flowers on the whole are scarce 

 and were it not for California mums, 

 of which we are receiving some fine 

 specimens, the retailer would be at a 

 loss for stock to meet the demands of 

 the trade. Dahlias up to October 20 

 were in profusion, the early frosts 

 touching but few of the larger patches. 

 We had the first real frost of the 

 season on the night of October 24, 

 which put an end to the dahlias for 

 this year. 



Roses are scarce. Local mums are 

 few and of inferior quality. Carnations 

 are scarce here, as elsewhere. Good 

 stock is almost unobtainable, even at 

 fancy prices. 



Various Notes. 



Rosaia Bros, are cutting a few fine 

 specimens of orchids from their large 

 selection of many varieties. The greater 

 part of their big cut will not be ready 

 for a few weeks. Gardenias are also 

 making their appearance on the market, 

 coming from Rosaia Bros. 



Cyclamens and primroses arc making 

 the interior of the larger stores attrac 

 (ive with their presence. There are 

 some fine cyclamens on display, and 

 those who have them report that sales 

 are made with little trouble. 



II. A. Crouch, of the Woodlawn Flower 

 Shop, reports business so good that lie 

 has taken on two extra men, A. A. 

 Moore, formerly with the Orpheum 

 Floral Co., and Lieut. Claud Remover, 

 recently returned from France. He is 

 also glad to have Mrs. Minet back with 

 him again. She recently returned from
