The Florists^ Review 



Ju.NK 2, 1921 



TORONTO, ONT. 



The Market. 



Florists had anticipated an easing up 

 in the trade, but last week the horse 

 races created a demand for cor8a,ges 

 and bouquets. The graduation exercises 

 at the hospitals called for a great many 

 bouquets. Some of the florists have 

 been supplying flowers for social func- 

 tions, both for table decorations and for 

 corsages. Funeral work has been fairly 

 heavy, so that the available supply of 

 flowers has been used up and there have 

 been no bargain sales. 



Various Notes. 



G. M. Geraghty entertained a party 

 over the week end at his cottage on 

 Georgian bay. Pilgrims' Rest. 



Arrangements are being made for the 

 annual picnic of the Toronto Retail 

 Florists' Club, at Long Branch, July 6. 

 As usual, the retail stores will be closed 

 during the afternoon to permit all em- 

 ployees to attend. All florists, includ- 

 ing growers, and their families, are in- 

 vited, 



Mr. Cahill, of Roman J. Irwin, has 

 been calling on the trade in Toronto. 



Construction is progressing weil on 

 George Bennett's new greenhouses, at 

 Bowmanville. Part of his property, on 

 Queen street, west, is being built up for 

 other purposes, and another landmark 

 has been removed from the city. 



A playlet, called "The Flower Shop," 

 was put on at the Pantages theater 

 recently. The sign on the shop, while 

 the play was in Toronto, was J. J. 

 Higgins. 



Some fine gladioli are being delivered 

 in Toronto from the Georgetown Floral 

 Co. J- J- H. 



DENVER, COLO. 



Carnations, since Mothers' day, have 

 been scarce. There were not a great 

 many of any kind of flowers for May 

 30; the reason for this was the heavy 

 snow storm and severely cold weather 

 during the month of April. There were 

 only a few peonies. Roses have been 

 coming in well and are bringing a good 

 price. 



S. R. Luudy, of the Boldt-Lundy 

 House of Flowers, and his wife, are 

 spending a short vacation in the Rock- 

 ies. Ij. C. H.
