The Fiorists^ Review 



Skptembbh 25, 1913. 



He reports his sweet pea seed as good, 

 what there is of it, but he has had to 

 cut down on some large orders. As the 

 pioneer grower of winter peas Mr. Zvo- 

 lanek is well known, and he has other 

 cards up his sleeve. 



Business is opening up finely with 

 Staiger & Mundwiler at the . home 

 place in the city, and they are pro- 

 gressing well at the new place at Lo- 

 mita. Mr. Mundwiler now resides at 

 Lomita, Mr. Staiger being more at the 

 home place. The ferns here are magnif- 

 icent; among them are some of the 

 finest specimens of market nephrolepis 

 I have seen in such small pots and 

 baskets. 



T. F. M. Williamson, on Figueroa and 

 Washington streets, continues to make 

 an elegant show in his windows, which 

 is surely bringing him business. Some 

 exceptionally fine Nephrolepis Amer- 

 pohlii and N. Whitmani were on show 

 last week. 



Ernest Stover, formerly with Wright's, 

 Flower Shop, is now with H. Eeeve 

 Darling at Sixth street. 



Morris Goldenson has had his store 

 repainted and cleaned up generally, and 

 some changes made in the arrangement. 

 This has greatly improved its appear- 

 ance and made more room and con- 

 venience. 



Great crowds around O. C. Saakes' 

 store September 17 made everyone 

 wonder what was happening and even- 

 tually it transpired that the ubiquitous 

 moving picture man was on the job. 



At Dieterich & Turner's the propa- 

 gating benches are never at rest and 

 thousands of the new roses are now 

 being rooted for early sales. Practically 

 all of the immense stock raised here is 

 sold and one wonders where it all goes. 

 Eepeat orders are frequent, showing 

 that quality tells. 



Stock cleans up well daily at the 

 Los Angeles Flower Market, and with 

 all the hustling, orders have occasion- 

 ally to be turned down.

The Market. 



The flower business is again becoming 

 worth while; the last few weeks little 

 has been doing, but now the florists are 

 beginning to wear that sunny smile 

 which indicates better times. Stock of 

 most flowers is fairly plentiful, and 

 the stores are looking gay. In fact, the 

 writer, who has recently returned from 

 an eastern visit, notices more flowers 

 in one store here than in any of the 

 eastern cities visited. Outside flowers 

 are almost over, but good gladioli, lilies 

 and sweet peas are still procurable and 

 are selling well. Carnations are scarce 

 and of none too good quality. Most of 

 the supply is from hold-over plants; 

 young stock cutting has hardly begun, 

 and those coming in are short-stemmed 

 and not of first quality. Looking over 

 sundry plants where carnations are the 

 main winter crop leads one to prophesy 

 that this season's cut will more than 

 equal last year's in quality and quan- 

 tity. Roses are now arriving in fairly 

 liberal quantities and are of fair qual- 

 ity, selling well. Ferns and other pot 

 plants are in demand, and fall openings 

 of the department stores are stimulat- 

 ing trade considerably.
