The Florists^ Review 



January 19. 1922 



This store had much success with its 

 boxes of California fruit, which tourists, 

 etc., sent east during the holiday season. 



Podesta & Baldocchi are doing a great 

 deal of table decorating, for part of 

 which they are using their Italian vases. 

 In many cases the vases are purchased 

 as a result. Manuel Eusscll and Mike 

 Solari, of this store, won first prize with 

 their dancers, camouflaged as South Sea 

 islanders, when they appeared for the 

 Fillmore Merchants' Association. They 

 wore "lais" of real flowers in white and 

 yellow. 



The San Francisco Growers' Coopera- 

 tive Market is cleaned up every day, 

 even of such outdoor stock as marigolds. 

 The stock coming in consists of freesias, 

 daffodils, Scotch heather, Paper Whites 

 and violets, although the last named are 

 scarce. Acacia will be in shortly. 



Joseph's has added another panel au- 

 tomobile delivery wagon to its fleet. 

 This makes the third the firm has and 

 they are now kept busy. Social work, 

 funerals and steamer sailings are all re- 

 ported by Joseph 's to be brisk. 



"Business is good, considering the 

 scarcity in the local market," said F. C. 

 Jaeger, Jr., of F. C. Jaeger & Son. He 

 added that the high cost of much of the 

 merchandise popular for gifts has been 

 a blessing to the florists, as it has made 

 people go on saying it with flowers in- 

 stead of with lace or pearls. 



The California Floral Co. has been 

 busy with funeral work. The firm finds 

 a good demand for potted plants since 

 the cut stock increased in price. 



An influx of tourists at the Palace 

 hotel has kept things busy for Fred 

 Bertrand's Palace hotel flower shop. 

 Coming from colder clinles, the tourists 

 do not consider violets and. other stock 

 expensive at local prices. M. M. 



Baltimore, Md.— M. T. Hartzell will 

 enter the cut flower trade in the spring 

 with roses and violets. Mr. Hartzell has 

 one greenhouse at the present time and 

 has three more under construction.
