The Florists^ Review 



January 26. 1922 



seed catalogues in the hands of local 

 dealers. The catalogues are well illus- 

 trated and excellently gotten up. 



Balph Latham and O. II. Carlson have 

 gone to California for a few weeks' 

 visit. C. R. 



NEWARK, N, J. 



The Market. 



Transient business remains dull. 

 Many florists have had a considerable 

 amount of funeral work of late. Funeral 

 work, in fact^ makes up the bulk of the 

 business of many of the florists at the 

 present time. Early potted bulb stock is 

 coming into the market in larger quan- 

 tities each week. Carnations are scarce, 

 because of the large amount of cloudy 

 weather. Growers report, however, that 

 their plants are full of buds and that a 

 few warm, sunny days will bring large 

 quantities of these buds into bloom. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Luthy, 363 Springfield avenue, 

 reports that he is busy with a great deal 

 of funeral work at the present time. 



William Gahr, 312 Springfield avenue, 



reports business as satisfactory for the 

 new year. Funeral work makes up the 

 bulk of the business at this establish- 

 ment. E. B. M. 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The Market. 



Cut flowers continue scarce and are in 

 good demand. A favorable change of 

 weather, however, is improving the sup- 

 ply. Cloudy weather has predominated 

 this winter, but during the last week 

 there has been cold weather, with sun- 

 shine. 



Carnations range from $8 to $10 per 

 hundred and clear daily. Calla lilies are 

 in demand at $2.50 to $3 per dozen. 

 Narcissi sell readily at $6 per hundred. 

 Violets are available at $1.50 per hun- 

 dred and sweet peas at $2.50 and $3 per 

 hundred. Other offerings include free- 

 sias, jonquils, primroses, marguerites 

 and pussy willows. 



Various Notes. 



Arthur Zirkman visited Indianapolis 

 while en route to the western coast. 



Dale Roth, of Lafayette, Ind., stopped 

 here on his way back from Richmond, 

 where he inspected the new roses. 



E. E. T. 



WORCESTER, MASS. 



Business here is about normal. Fu- 

 neral work is generally in evidence at 

 this time. Flowers in variety are ex- 

 ceedingly scarce. Roses, carnations, 

 sweet peas, narcissi and violets about 

 complete the list. Normal temperatures 

 have prevailed during the last week, 

 with bright days favoring the growers, 

 who, however, are not receiving any too 

 much for their produce. 



John N. Keeler, a representative of 

 the Lord & Burnham Co., was in this 

 vicinity January 19, looking for busi- 

 ness. 



Loring Underwood, of Boston, gave an 

 illustrated lecture, at Horticultural hall 

 Thursday, January 19, on the subject of 

 "Old New England Gardens." Two 

 hundred and fifty people were present.
