The Florists' Review 



Mat 10, 1921 



Bosaia Bros, reported the most suc- 

 cessful Mothers' day since the formation 

 of this firm and on many items Sunday 

 noon found the stock entirely cleaned 

 out. Especially good results were se- 

 cured with a brilliant yellow tulip of 

 the Darwin type, grown by this firm and 

 at its height at the present time. The 

 cut of roses is showing some increase 

 and a similar report on orchids is ex- 

 pected soon. Among the recent decora-

Stock is somewhat scarce following 

 Mothers' day, but a few more days will 

 bring all lines back to normal, as a 

 good cut of roses, carnations, sweet'peas, 

 etc., is to be found at most of the green- 

 houses. The bedding plant season is 

 on in full swing, with prices ranging 

 about the same as last year. Potted 

 plants are somewhat scarce. 



Various Notes. 



Tuesday, May 3, was the regular 

 meeting night of the Florists' Club. 

 There was a large attendance. Plans 

 were made for florists' day at the Ad 

 Club, May 18. It is expected that J. F. 

 Ammann will be here at that date. It 

 was voted to raise money to put vases 

 of suitable sizes in the hospitals. C. T. 

 Kipp, of the Spokane Florist Co., is giv- 

 ing lectures to the nurses on the care 

 of cut flowers and plants. If the brother 

 florists throughout the country would 

 take up the matter in their own towns, 

 it would mean the sale of more flowers 

 and plants to the hospitals. 



Mothers' day business in Spokane was 

 the largest in the history of Mothers' 

 day. A number of stores were sold out 

 of carnations and almost all other cut 

 flowers by Saturday noon, May 7, but 

 sales were directed to potted plants, 

 which also cleaned up entirely by noon, 

 Mothers' day. Prices in almost every 

 case were about normal. 



M. Louis and H. Saunders, of Coeur 

 d'Alene, Ida., were recent visitors. They 

 report a heavy cut of cucumbers now 

 and good stock in geraniums ready for 

 spring shipping. 



A call at the different stores finds 

 all with the same story of a wonderful 

 Mothers' day business. A noticeable 

 part of the day's business was the tele- 

 graph orders. Another noticeable fea- 

 ture is the large number of parcels go- 

 ing by parcel post. The local rise in ex- 

 press rates may be one of the causes. 



Peters & Sons, of Ilillyard, Wash., 

 have a fine cut of cucumbers. Their 

 shipping business is also heavy.
