The Florists^ Review 



January 7, 1915. 



EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



New Year's festivities cailsed con- 

 siderable business for some. Cut flow- 

 ers were chieflj' in demand and some 

 good decorations were made. A num- 

 ber of floral remembrances were sent 

 to the new city officials, who went into 

 office January 1. Funeral work has 

 been heavy all through the holidays. 



Various Notes. 



Karl Zeidler reports a light busi- 

 ness for New Year's, but he had a 

 large quantity of funeral work, which 

 kept the force busy. He is working 

 up a large stock of plants for his 

 spring trade. His bench of sweet peas 

 is doing splendidly since the bright 

 weather has come. A fine lot of longi- 

 florums will soon be ready to cut from. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons had their 

 usual good New Year's trade. They 

 continue to have a fine cut of Ward 

 and Richmond roses, carnations, sweet 

 peas and bulbous stock. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. sent 

 out a large quantity of cut flowers 

 New Year's. They had the decoration 

 of the Vendome hotel for Christmas and 

 New Year's. Geo. Blackman was r^i 

 years old Sunday, January 3, and his 

 annual banquet to the employees was 

 held Saturday, January 2. 



W. D. Macer says he was busy send- 

 ing out cut flowers and plants for New 

 Year's. He had a few plants left over, 

 but not many. Cyclamens were his 

 best seller for the holidays. 



E. L. Fenton is getting his White 

 Wyandottes ready for the poultry 

 show, January 18 to 23, of which he 

 is assistant superintendent. 



C. L. Niednagel is cutting nice Kil- 

 larney and Russell roses again, since 

 the weather has turned clear. Killar- 

 ney has that good pink color which 

 makes it a favorite. E. L. V.
