WHOLESALE GROWERS AND SHIPPERS 



448 BUSH ST., SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. 



nearly a week assisting in the arrange- 

 ment of a new florist's shop at 176 Eddy 

 street. This firm will supply everything 

 sold in the store and in some respects 

 the store will resemble a branch estab- 

 lishment. The proprietor is S. Anderata, 

 a scientific gardener who formerly had 

 charge of large gardens in Venezuela, 

 South America. 



The Francis Floral Co. is now settled 

 in its new store, 433 Powell street. This 

 store is only a few doors from the 

 former place of business of this firm. 



San Francisco florists are preparing 

 to extend a fitting welcome to their 

 Shriner friends when the National 

 Shrine convention meets here, June 12 to 

 14. Many of the northern florists are 

 Shriners and most of them have signified 

 their intention of attending the conven- 

 tion. 



C. Kooyman has met with such success 

 in growing valley in a room near a fur- 

 nace for the building, at the rear of his 

 store, that he has become an enthusiast 

 over the project. "How easy it would 

 be for tlie country florists to grow their 

 own lilies of the valley! " he said. "All 

 the bulbs need is water, when planted 

 in a warm room, and it would be a won- 

 derful thing for the isolated florist to 

 cut valley whenever he had a call for 

 it. ' ' Mr. Kooyman is going more heav- 

 ily into growing valley next fall. 



Mothers' day is going to see a much 

 greater business rush than Easter did, 

 according to J. A. Axell. "I am judg- 

 ing from the rush of advance orders for 

 Mothers' day," he said. "Business 

 was good at Easter, but it is going to be 

 much better for Mothers' day. The 

 trouble is, there will be the usual com- 

 plaint about not being able to get 

 enough stock, especially white carna- 

 tions. Prices will soar up, and," added 

 Mr. Axell emphatically, "that is bad 

 for business." 



The E. W. McLellan Co. is cutting a 

 good many gardenias of fine size. 



Enomoto & Co. have been growing 

 with Mothers' day in mind ancl expect 

 to have good crops of various staples. 



Domoto Bros, have a fine display of 

 potted, flowering azaleas, covered with 

 bloom, as well as potted hydrangeas, 

 roses, rhodddcndroiis, palms and other 

 plants and shrubs. 



The Growers' Floral Co. is cutting
