The Florists* Review 



Mat 17, 1917. 



CLEVELAND. 



Witli the cold weather of the last 

 fewj.weeks, caiuations and roses were 

 alow ill coming. The result was a short- 

 age, especially of carnations. The cool 

 nights were just what the growers of 

 bulbous stock wanted and daffodils and 

 tulips were to be had in quantity. With- 

 out these flowers to help out, the market 

 •would liave been decidedly short of cut 

 Howers. There were about enough to go 

 around, carnations being the leaders. 

 Roses, snapdragons, bal)y gladioli, irises, 

 daffodils and Darwin tulips were ready 

 sellers. 



The Cleveland flower buyers are be- 

 ginning to realize the true significance 

 of Mothers' day. Our local advertising 

 is done with a view to teaching the 

 public that the proper flower to give 

 or wear on Mothers' day is not the 

 ^^rhite carnation, as worn by Miss Jarvis, 

 hxxt the flower that is, or was, the 

 mother's favorite flower. The result 

 is that flowers other than carnations 

 were asked for and plants, such as 

 (hydrangeas, spiraeas, rambler roses, 

 gloxinias, tuberous-rooted begonias, daf- 

 fodils and tulips, sold easily. Reports 

 from all parts of the city show a large 

 increase in the sales over other years. 

 Mothers' day is getting better each 

 year. It is not a question of whether 

 tlie stock will sell, but rather of what 

 can be had to sell. 



For Memorial day let us hope that 

 geraniums at $1 per dozen and porch 

 boxes at $1 per foot are things of the 

 past. It is not necessary to organize 

 to keep the jjrice uj). (Miargo a fair 

 price for your stock, so that you can 

 realize a fair profit and not a loss. Your 

 neighbor is liurting no one but himself 

 whett he undersells you. 



Geraniums and other bedding stock 

 cost from ten to fifty per cent more to 

 grow the last year than in other years. 

 Grow good, select stock and you can get 

 any fair price you ask. F. A. F.
