The Florists' Review 



DKCfMBEB 10, 1014. 



demand was greater this season for the 

 better grade of stock. All stock was 

 practically cleaned out early in the 

 day. 



Various Notes. 



A call at the orchid establishment 

 of J. A. Carbone, at Berkeley, found 

 Mr. Carbone busy looking after his 

 choice stock of plants. He has a big 

 variety of stock, consisting of about 

 25,000 plants. His cattleyas are look- 

 ing fine and he will have a good crop 

 for Christmas. 



F. Aebi, of Berkeley, grows mostly 

 roses. His Killarney and Eiehmond 

 will be in heaviest flower for the 

 Christmas trade. He also has a house 

 of Taft and one of the Kirk rose, 

 which are coming along nicely. 



' J. Seulberger reports business to 

 date as highly satisfactory. He has a 

 large family trade and carries a large 

 stock in accordance. 



The Thorsted Floral Co. makes a 

 special feature of a window of basket 

 arrangements, which is changed daily. 

 This is considered by the firm as the 

 best advertising medium. E. R. C.

The Market. 



Since Thanksgiving there have been 

 few large social events, but a steady 

 demand for small quantities of stock 

 has kept the market pretty well cleaned 

 up every day. Roses and carnations 

 are being held back by the cloudy 

 weather and are none too plentiful. 

 Mums are in full supply. Chadwick 

 and Maud Dean are in their prime. 

 Killarney, White Killarney, Ophelia 

 and Mrs. Aaron Ward are the best 

 roses. Richmonds are scarce. No 

 American Beauties are grown here. 

 There are but few local grown violets, 

 but plenty of California stock is to 

 be had. There is a full supply of or- 

 chids, with no great demand for them. 

 Blooming pot plants and decorative 

 stock find a fair sale, cyclamens and 

 ferns being in greatest demand. 



The old-fashioned round bouquets 

 with ornamental paper shields sell well. 



The nurserymen have about finished 

 lifting their deciduous stock and have 

 orders booked for most of it. They 

 have heeled in large quantities for fill- 

 ing orders for spring delivery. 



It is an off season for the local se^d 

 trade. Those firms which have whDlE- 

 sale departments are packing orders 

 for January delivery. 



Several representatives of foreign 

 bulb growers have been soliciting or- 

 ders for next year's crop, but have 

 found rather hard picking. Bulb buy- 

 ers are inclined to wait till they see 

 the results of this year's investments 

 before they figure on next year's sup- 

 ply. 



Advance orders for Christmas stock 

 are reported equal to former years. 



Various Notes. 



Chas. Waid, who has a range of 

 glass on East Ninety-second street, is 

 growing a large quantity of bedding 

 stock, principally geraniums. Most of 

 his products are used by the Portland 

 fiailway, Light & Power Co. at Bull 

 Bun park and at their stations along 

 the Hue. 



The Tonseth Floral Co. is displaying 

 some fine poinsettia plants in ornamen- 

 tal baskets with ferns.
