The Florists' Review 



FirBKUARY 25, 1015. 



rOKT WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Business for the last two weeks has 

 been rushing. St. Valentine's day 

 brought a volume of business which 

 kept all the florists hustling. Not only 

 were flowers ordered for valentines, but 

 decorations for valentine and an- 

 nouncement parties were in demand. 

 The pre-lenten festivities were numer- 

 ous, all requiring floral decorations. 

 Funeral work has been plentiful and 

 the florists are all reporting splendid 

 business. 



The stock of flowers has been large 

 and varied. Roses are of splendid size 

 and color. Carnations are of extremely 

 good quality, and mignonette, sweet 

 peas, forget-me-nots, jonquils and all 

 bulbous stock are plentiful and of fine 

 quality. 



Various Notes. 



The automobile show, to be held Feb- 

 ruary 24 to 27, is the occasion for the 

 use of flowers in great quantities. 



Miss Ruth Flick has returned from 

 Guerin Hall, St. Mary of the Woods 

 college, near Terre Haute, Ind., where 

 she visited her sister. Miss Marguerite 

 Flick, who is a student at the college. 



The Bradley Flower Shop will move 

 from its present quarters at 828 Cal- 

 houn street, to 1026 Calhoun street, on 

 the expiration of its lease March 20.

The Market. 



St. Valentine's day business was sat- 

 isfactory to everybody. To many of 

 the florists it proved to be much better 

 than was anticipated. Violets were in 

 great demand. They brought 40 and 

 50 cents per hundred, wholesale. Pans 

 of tulips and hyacinths were plenti- 

 ful and sold well. Sweet peas, daffodils, 

 carnations and roses were cleaned up in 

 good shape. The prices of good roses 

 in all varieties are still high. Other 

 prices arc normal. 



Various Notes. 



Post & Gray were unusually busy with 

 funeral work during the early part of 

 last week. 



William E. Mosher has some excellent 

 callas. He intends to do some extensive 

 altering and repairing at his place dur- 

 ing the coming spring and summer. 



Some of the best violets in the city 

 are to be seen at Ed. Davis', on Shaw- 

 mut avenue. His carnations are off 

 crop, but he expects to get in a heavy 

 crop for Easter. W. M. P.
