The Florists' Review 



Sbpthmbbu 29, 1921 



EDNA 



The best commercial scarlet carnation to date. Get a start this year. We 

 still have some nice strong plants. $15.00 per 100; $120.00 per 1000. 



POINSETTIAS 



We have a tine lot of plants in 2-inch pots. If you can use 500 or more, we will bill them at 5 cents. 

 You can't make money faster than by putting four of these plants in a 5-inch pot and growing them for 



Xmas. Good poinsettia pans always clean up at Xmas. 

 Gloire de Chatelaine — Better order a few hundred of these to grow on for winter sales, $6.0O 



pel- 100; $50. GO per tOOO.

The Maxket. 

 Tliere has been an improved tone in 

 the market during the last week. Sum- 

 mer is now over, vacationists arc practi- 

 cally all home, nights are getting cooler, 

 outdoor flowers arc gradually passing 

 away and it will not be long before the 

 light frosts will come along, which will 

 mean a boost in prices for indoor flow- 

 ers. The majority of retail florists are 

 talking of an improvement in busines.s 

 and, in many cases, there are reports 

 that sales are fully as good as they were 

 a year ago. Factories and mills arc 

 gradually getting back to normal pro- 

 duction and the general outlook for fall, 

 at least, is encouraging. Gladioli, which 

 have for many weeks glutted the mar- 

 ket, arc rapidly passing away. The sup- 

 ply is much reduced and the spikes are 

 much smaller. There are still too many 

 asters, especially of the inferior type, 

 and the wholesalers will, no doubt, be 

 delighted when they reach their end. 

 Good asters, however, are bringing a 

 fair price. Chrysanthemums are now 

 the new feature, mainly yellow, al- 

 though there are some white. These sell 

 well. Carnations continue to come 

 along short-stemmed and small, although 

 they seem to move out rapidly. Roses 

 are arriving in fairly good quantities 

 and of a much imjjroved quality. A few 

 cattleyas have appeared. 



Florists Hold Banquet. 



Tuesday evening, September 20, the 

 joint bancpiet of the three local florists' 

 associations was held. It was one of 

 the greatest successes ever known in the 

 history of the Pitt.sburgh florists. There 

 were practically 200 florists gathered to- 

 gether in the English room of the Fort 

 Pitt hotel. 



The chairman of the committee, De- 

 Forest Ludwig, after a few remarks, an- 

 nounced the toastmaster for the eve- 

 ning, E. J. McCallum, who, after com- 

 menting upon the success of this meet- 

 ing, permitted .John iJarnett, president 

 of the Pittsburgh Florists' "and Garden- 

 ers' Club, the oldest organization in 

 Pittsburgh, to say a few words. Mr. 

 Barnett was then followed by John 

 Oarmer, president of the Sewickly Hor- 

 ticultural Soceity, who was followed by
