The Florists' Review 



lOKB 9, 1921 



ply Co., said, "While we shall still deal 

 in cut flowers, the company is hence- 

 forth to extend its cultivation of acro- 

 clinium and helichrysum. Special drying 

 houses for them have been built. Straw- 

 flowers commend themselves to us, be- 

 cause they are not so perishable as most 

 flowers, and they ship as well in July as 

 in December. For that reason we plan 

 to specialize in them." 



Domoto Bros, have large stocks of 

 roses and Japanese lilies coming from 

 their nurseries. They say this is for- 

 tunate, as the former are in demand for 

 weddings and the latter for funerals, of 

 which there have been a great many 

 recently. 



Enomoto & Co. say that their Memo- 

 rial day business far exceeded that of 

 last year. 



The Growers' Cut Flower Co. is har- 

 vesting strawflowers. Yukichi Noda, of 

 this firm, says a number of plant tubs 

 have been received from Japan re- 

 cently. 



June weddings, coming on the heels 

 of Memorial day, have prevented any- 

 thing like a slump in the florists' busi- 

 ness. Podesta & Baldocchi have three 

 weddings coming off this month in the 

 ranks of their .staff. A. F. Podesta, 

 Jr., is to marry Miss Lillian Bowman; 

 Emil Mangini is to marry Miss Alvina 

 Kocliler, and Adolph Bacigalupi will 

 be married to Miss Elda Dal Bon. All 

 the brides are San Franciscans. 



J. A. Axell says that not only was 

 Memorial day business good, but all 

 orders were taken care of. "This year 

 shipping orders showed a demand for 

 higher-priced stock, especially roses, 

 than ever before," said Mr. Axell. 

 ''The reason is, no doubt, to be found 

 in the prevailing high express rates. 

 People can't pay high rates on cheap 

 flowers. ' ' 



Fred Bertrand, of the Palace Hotel 

 Flower Shop, says tliat the number of 

 conventions to meet In San Francisco 

 iluring Juno makes it safe to predict a 

 good month for florists. 



Brown & Kennedy base their belief 

 on a prosperous June upon the number 

 of wedding decoration orders that are 

 on file at their store. Memorial day 

 business surpassed their expectations. 



Julius Eppstein believes that, given 

 the right kind of customers, a florist can 

 cultivate certain tastes in them. He 

 prides himself on having established a 

 reputation for selling orchids at his 

 store in the St. Francis hotel. 



Victor Ferrari, of Ferrari Bros., 

 states that orchid crops are coming 

 along favorably. 



Ansel Bianchini. of Joseph's staff, is 

 spending his vacation at Colma, among 

 the growers. Miss Dolores Howard is 

 at the Yosemite. George P. Wagner 

 bought his wife a car as an anniversarv 

 gift. ^ 



Avansino Bros. & Co. have a new, spe- 

 cially built delivery car, which they 

 have ,iust put into commission. It is 

 tan in color, lettered in Harding blue, 

 and the body is designed to carrv large 

 loads. 



E. Ramari. formerly with the Mac- 

 Rorie-McLaren Co., is now with an 

 automobile firm. 



Albert O. Stein reports a number of 

 table decorations and orders for wed- 

 dings. 



F. C. Jaeger & Son have finished 

 moving across the street, giving up 

 their store at 152 Powell street. 



Mr. and Mrs. Darbee left June 2 for 

 a prolonged vacation trip by automobile
