The Florists' Review 



July 6, 1922 



SEATTLE NOTES. 



(Concluded from pacrc 110.) 

 transient business of Jate, and funeral 

 work has been liol(lin>>; up to average. 

 Outside activities liave been keepinjj 

 Eugene Lainble away from the shop con- 

 siderably. 



William S. (ioldsbary, representing 

 the A. L. Randall Co., Chicago, is call- 

 ing on the Montana trade at this time. 

 Ho reports better business prospects in 

 all of the cities visited to date. 



The Woodlawn Flower Whop has han- 

 dled several club decorations and 

 organization dances, ;i nuinber of these 

 liaving l)een held at tlie Seattle Yacht 

 Club. The duckling and water lily win- 

 dows prepared by Fred Gust continue 

 to attract the attention of passers-by, 

 especially at night, when tlie lighting 

 effects can bo introduced. 



One of the most (dal)orate wedding 

 decorations ever seen liere was arranged 

 last week when the Standard Furniture 

 Co. and the Seattle Star combined to 

 stage a wedding iji the former's model 

 bungalow for twelve local couples. The 

 furniture company supplied the decora- 

 tions and licenses for all who wished to 

 marry June 30, while the newspaj)er car- 

 ried on a special contest furthering the 

 same event. Roses, summer flowers and 

 greens were used to convert the o-room 

 model house into a bower of loveliness, 

 and the store's management supplied 

 each bride with a large bridal bouquet. 



John Hcd/.e, of the C^ueeu City Floral 

 Co., was one of tlu! local men visiting 

 the Port hind fete, and he says that a 

 royal entertainment was ])rovided by 

 their hosts. A .l-year lease has just 

 been closed on the property on which 

 the store and greenhouses are located 



Kenney's Home of Flowers was in 

 charge of Mrs. Will Desmond last week, 

 when friend husband led the local 

 l)owlers to Portland for the tri-city 

 meet, and her record of sales was su(di 

 that the regular manager must hurry 

 to keeji even. 



(lino Desideri, wlio lias been manag- 

 ing the Ori)heum Floral Co., is to leave 

 this jio.sitioii and enter business for him- 

 self in a location near th(> Tacoina Inter- 

 urban depot. For the time being, he 

 will discontinue the handling of flowers. 

 General business has been good for this 

 shop. 



P. F. Rosaia, of Hosaia Mros., has re- 

 turned from a motor trip to California, 

 Avhich combined business and pleasure. 

 An attractive window has been worked 

 11]) for this shop by converting one side 

 of the store into a garden, with two 

 large lily jtonds. between tiower-bor- 

 (lered walks, and with cane awnings 

 above these. The cut of flowers from 

 the greenhouses has been showing a 

 steady gain, both as to quantity and 

 quality. 



John Dressen, of the Art Floral Co., 

 took a long enough vacation to make 

 the Portland trijt, and .advises th.at busi- 

 ness has jiicked iiji somewhat since his 

 return. The more colorful summer 

 blooms are in the best demand. 



Some of the best sweet peas seen here 

 this year are being cut by Henry Mor- 

 gan, and a readv sale has been found 

 for all of this stock. H. M. 



Greenwich, N. Y. — C. A. Hall is erect- 

 ing a large greenhouse in Fort Edward, 

 N..Y. It is expected that Mr. Hall will 

 have his new place ready for business 

 about October 1. He has been engaged 

 in the florists' trade for eighteen vears 

 at West Sand Lake, N. Y.
