The Rorists^ Review 



May 19, 1921 



DULUTH, MINN. 



The Market. 



Mothers' day was a great success; 

 everybody says so. Flowers were plen- 

 tiful and good prices were obtained. 

 Koses were good and the varieties 

 mostly used were Russell, Columbia, 

 Hoosier Beauty, Milady, Sunburst, White 

 Killarney, Premier and Ophelia. There 

 was a good supply of carnations, al- 

 though there were not nearly enough for 

 the demand. This year the florists' ad- 

 vice was to use any flower for Moth- 

 ers' day, in order to relieve the strain 

 on carnations. Peonies were in great 

 demand and the limited stock v/as soon 

 cleaned up. Sweet peas, valley, yellow 

 and white daisies, snapdragons, Darwm 

 tulips, larkspurs and Spanish irises were 

 used in making Mothers' day bouquets. 

 Plants played an important part this 

 year. There was a call for cinerarias, 

 hydrangeas, hyacinths, tulips, pansies, 

 geraniums, begonias and many other 

 spring plants. 



Various Notes. 



J. J. Le Borious says he made the 

 best clean-up in plants and flowers that 

 he has ever known. He had a heavy cut 

 of carnations, also a big batch of hya- 

 cinths, tulips and spring plants, all of 

 which sold quickly. 



William Japp, of Lester Park, had a 

 large supply of spring plants, cinerarias, 

 geraniums, etc., which he sold to the 

 stores in Duluth and Superior. 



The Quality Flower Shop reports busi- 

 ness better than in any other year. 

 Plants and cut flowers both sold well. 



The Duluth Floral Co. had the best 

 business it has had for many years. The 

 shipping was heavy both Thursday and 

 Friday, May 5 and 6, and the local trade 

 Saturday and Sunday, May 7 and 8, was 

 heavy. 



The Alpha Florist reports Mothers' 

 day business quite good. J. E. S. 



Ittabena, Miss. — Mrs. William Hal- 

 sell is entering the florists' business in 

 this town. 



Lansing, Mich. — Earl Edgerton, who 

 has grown gladioli for many years, leaves 

 May 23 for the Hawaiian islands, where 

 he will continue to grow gladioli. He 

 will make an effort to produce some new 

 and good yellow varieties.
