The Florists' Review 



June 29 1917. 



AN UP-TO-DATE GREENHOUSE 



must be lasting, secure, efficient, properly ventilated 



It must be constructed in accordance with the rules which have 

 been approved by knowledge and experience. We have been in the 

 greenhouse manufacturing business for a good many years and our ex- 

 perience is at your disposal. Whether you intend to build your first 

 house or plan an addition, we believe^ that our suggestions will be of 

 interest to you. Our material is strictly first-class both in grade and 

 workmanship. Our new "Leak-Proof" Gutter is bound to give you 

 satisfaction. Our prices are reasonable. We use only the best grade 

 of Louisiana Red Cypress.

SAN FRANCISCO NOTES. 



[Continued from page 80.] *- 

 says that they have already received 

 twenty cases of orchid plants from Cen- 

 tral America this year and that they 

 expect many more. He reports a stead- 

 ily increasing demand for phalsenopsis 

 and predicts that this species will gain 

 in popularity for use in wedding bou- 

 quets. The firm's heavy planting of 

 Eussell roses means that many American 

 Beauties are being discarded. 



A. B. Brownell, manager of the Port- 

 land Wholesale Nursery Co., of Port- 

 land, Ore., was a recent visitor. 



Tlie Bellevue Florists, or Miss Roths- 

 child and Miss Bertha Cohn, are clos- 

 ing at 1 o'clock Sundays during the 

 summer months. Miss Eothsehild is 

 planning a vacation in the Santa Cruz 

 mountains. She is of the opinion that 

 the large number of army people sta- 

 tioned here is having its effect upon the 

 florists' business, judging by the num- 

 ber of uniformed men entering the 

 store. She admits that many of them 

 may have been customers before they 

 enlisted, but says the majority of them 

 seem to come from other sections of the 

 country. At this establishment red, 

 white and blue bouquets and novelties 

 continue to sell well. 



Besides looking after his business in 

 the St. Francis hotel, Julius Eppstein 

 is devoting considerable time to land- 

 scape work. Last week he spent two 

 (lays down the peninsula, where he is 

 laving out a large estate. 



Heretofore the rule in San Francisco 

 lias been to employ males for the sales 

 forces of the flower stores, but Mac- 

 Rorie & McLaren now evidently intend 

 to try women. They have added Miss 

 Lily Houge and Mrs. Jenks to their 

 pay roll, and it is understood that the 

 voung women are taking hold nicely. 

 MacRorie & McLaren have secured the 

 services of Charles Clark, formerly with 

 All)ert O. Stein and more recently with 

 Mark Ebel, of Sacramento. 



Henry Avansino, of Avansino Bros., 

 rejiorts many wedding decorations and 

 a large quantity of funeral work. 



The United Flower & Supply Co. 

 showed the first chrysanthemums of the 

 season June 13, two months ahead of 

 the usual date for their appearance.

 grown indoors, but, while good in qual-
