The Florists' Review 



AnoDST 18, 1921 



PITTSBUBQH, PA. 



The Market. 



Business last week showed an im- 

 provement over the previous days. As- 

 ters are the most important flowers on 

 the market at this time, and good prices 

 have been secured for the stock. Gla- 

 dioli are also plentiful and the demand 

 for these flowers is good each day, al- 

 most the entire supply being moved. 

 The supply and demand for green ma- 

 terial is normal at steady and usual 

 prices. Eoses are in their midsummer 

 condition and the principal varieties on 

 the market are Ophelia, Russell, Pre- 

 mier, Columbia and Butterfly. The de- 

 mand for American Beauty roses is ex- 

 ceptionally good and each day finds the 

 stock exhausted. In all, retail trade at 

 present is fully as good as may be ex- 

 pected at this time of the year. 



Various Notes. 



Charles S. Crall, of the I. S. Crall 

 Co., Monongahela, Pa., has returned 

 from a western trip. 



The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. is rep- 

 resented at the Washington convention 

 by Messrs. Wampler, Frishkorn and 

 Hook. Fred Burki, president of this 

 company, and Alfred Burki, his son, are 

 motoring to Washington to attend the 

 convention. H. J. H. 



DULUTH, MINN. 



Business has been quiet except for 

 funeral work and weddings. Rose stock 

 is just moderate, while carnations are 

 off crop. Outdoor flowers are plentiful, 

 the best sellers being sweet peas and 

 gladioli. Valley is good and plentiful 

 and there is a fine supply of Easter 

 lilies. 



A heavy hail storm did much damage 

 to the greenhouses at Duluth last week. 

 Charles Stahlrodt, William Engwall and 

 Miss Austin suffered heavy losses. 

 Miss Austin was the only one of the 

 three who carried insurance. Fred 

 Longren, of the Burlington Willow 

 Ware Shops, was a recent visitor at 

 Duluth. J. E. S. 



Houston, Tex.— E. C. Clothier has 

 started in the florists' business in this 

 city. His store will be located at 4501 

 North Main street.
