The Rorists^ Review 



NOVEMBHU 25. 1920 



PITTSBURGH, PA. 



The Market. 



The Piltstmrgh market has been fair- 

 ly active, the wholesale houses cleaning 

 up every day, with a shortage of chrys- 

 authemunis and carnations. 



Eoses are up to the winter standard 

 of quality, but there are not enough 

 of the better varieties. Some good 

 stevias and calendulas are helping out 

 and lilies are more plentiful. Yellow 

 daisies are good, but the stems are still 

 short. Orchids have been scarce and 

 in good demand. Pompon chrysanthe- 

 mums are more popular than ever. Box- 

 wood and ground pine are the active 

 greens, as everyone seems to be calling 

 for his stock now, to avoid the expe- 

 riences of other years. Florists getting 

 boxwood early can put it in a cool, damp 

 place and keep it for months. 



Business is generally reported good. 

 Among the larger houses a number of 

 weddings helped to increase the volume 

 of business. 



Various Notes. 



David Geddis, of the St. Louis Whole- 

 sale Cut Flower Co., St. Louis, was a 

 welcome visitor among his old friends 

 in the trade. 



The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. has 

 added a 1%-ton delivery truck to its 

 fleet of trucks. The slogan, "Say It 

 with Flowers," is conspicuously dis- 

 played on this truck. 



Notice has been given the florists of 

 Pittsburgh and the surrounding suburbs 

 advising them that the Pittsburgh Re- 

 tail Florists' Association will hold its 

 monthly meeting December 2 at 7 p. m. 

 at the Seventh Avenue hotel. Dinner 

 will be served. 



The slogan "Say It with Flowers," 

 is going to be displayed extensively 

 along the public highways and in promi- 

 nent places in the vicinity of Pitts- 

 burgh. The Pittsburgh Retail Florists' 

 Association is distributing slogan signs. 



E. J. McCallum, president of the Mc- 

 Callum Co., has just returned from a 

 hunting trip in Forest county. 



Some beautiful and artistic window 

 displays have been seen at the stores 

 of Mrs. E. A. Williams, A. W. Smith 

 Co. and McClements Co. H. J. H.
