The Florists' Review

MILWAT7EEE, WIS. 



Tbe Market. 



Memorial day is fast approaching 

 and the trade is extremely busy with 

 advance orders for that time. The or- 

 ders arc coming in fast and from indi- 

 cations it will be one of the largest holi- 

 days the florists have seen. Roses are 

 coming on nicely and the crop will be 

 about right for Memorial day sales. 

 Killarneys are in prime condition and 

 Wards, Tafts and Russells are also es- 

 pecially fine. The supply of roses in 

 general will be large enough to supply 

 the demand, which will be quite heavy. 



The carnation crop has been aflEfected 

 to a great extent by the extremely 

 warm weather which has been with us 

 for the last week. This condition has 

 brought the quality of this stock below 

 standard, but as cool, cloudy weather 

 has now set in it is expected that the 

 crop will harden up and be in fine shape 

 for the Memorial day trade. The sup- 

 ply, while somewhat limited, will be 

 sufficient to take care of most of the 

 demands made upon it. 



There is a large supply of sweet peas 

 on the market, but most of them are 

 poor and bring next to nothing. What 

 good stock there is, is bringing top-notch 

 prices, as there is always a good mar- 

 ket for first-class stock. Peonies are 

 looking fine and this stock will be one 

 of the big factors in the business done 

 for Memorial day. Easter lilies are 

 abundant and these will be cheap flow- 

 ers for the holiday trade. 



If the weather is not too warm, it is 

 expected that tulips will be in fine con- 

 dition at the end of this week. At pres- 

 ent the stock is poor and is not clean- 

 ing up well. There. is some, exception- 

 ally fine iris on the market at this time, 

 which is bringing good prices. 



The sale of spring plants is enormous 

 this year and the stock is moving rapid- 

 ly. Growers of this stock report large 

 sales and that they are entirely cleaned 

 out of some varieties already. 



Various Notes. 



Geo. Gruenewald, oa Cedarburg road, 

 is erecting two greenhouses, 300 feet 

 long. These are well under way and one 

 is nearly completed. Mr. Gruenewald 

 will grow fancy carnations for the Mil- 

 waukee market. 



Albert Hare, with the Holton & 

 Hunkel Co., has been ill for the last 

 few days, but has returned to work, 

 fully recovered. 



B. O. Burbank, of Iron Mountain, 

 Mich., visited Milwaukee Friday, May 

 22. 



Other visitors of the week were Mr. 

 Turner, of L. Turner & Son, and W. H. 

 Drake, both of Kenosha, Wis. 



J. M. Fox & Son are showing some 

 fine window displays. This firm has a 

 faculty for attractive displays and 

 shows rare taste in decorating the win- 

 dows. H, J, S.
