The Florists^ Review 



Sei'TEMBer 4, 1913. 



SPBINQFIELD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Rain has come at last. A good, 

 heavy shower, August 29, did a great 

 deal of good to outdoor stock. Asters 

 are plentiful, but the aster bugs are 

 proving a great pest this fall; they are 

 destroying some of the finest aster 

 blooms in great quantities. Late asters 

 are beginning to arrive now. Gladioli 

 are still in excellent condition. Roses 

 are decidedly improved. Killarney and 

 White Killarney are much larger now. 

 Mrs. Aaron Ward and Milady are com- 

 ing into the market in large quantities. 

 Mexican poppies are abundant and 

 will last until the frost comes. Har- 

 risii lilies are coming in again, but 

 there is little demand for them. Jap- 

 anese lilies in pink and white are seen 

 occasionally but the supply is not 

 heavy. 



Various Notes. 



.Tames Morrison has returned from 

 Milwaukee, Wis., where he spent his 

 vacation. He has a great many things 

 to say in praise of the west. , 



Albert Phelps, rose grower for M. 

 Aitken, is producing some good Mrs. 

 Aaron Ward roses, and he also has a 

 fine crop of Milady, which will soon 

 be ready to cut. 



Arthur Cowee, of Berlin, N. Y., is 

 shipping some of his fine gladioli to the 

 Worthy hotel, in this city. Mr. Cowee 

 had a wonderful display of his gladioli 

 at the convention in Minneapolis. 



Last week hundreds of people were 

 seen in front of the new store of Mark 

 Aitken, watching the rare birds which 

 were on display in a mammoth brass 

 cage in the window. 



The tlouble funeral of Mr. and Mrs. 

 Sherman Porter gave the leading flo- 

 rists quite a bit of work, August 29, 

 as did also the Marsh and Pierce fu- 

 nerals later in the month. 



All the florists closed their stores at 

 noon on Labor day. 



N. F. Higgins sold his store, known 

 as the Flower Mart, on North Main 

 street, to H. W. Alpin, who reports 

 business rushing at present. Mr. Alpin 

 is thinking of taking C. A. Reynolds 

 into partnership. K. (.". A. 



Charlotte, N. C— W. W. Scholtz has 

 completed a two-story buiMing with a 

 rough stucco exterior for a display 

 house. The furnishings are all of the 

 most up-to-date type and make a good- 

 looking store. F. W. Miller, the de- 

 signer for this firm, has just returned 

 from Xew York, where he spent a week 

 or more in the florists' establishments.
