The Florists^ Review 



AvRU. 15, 1915. 



TWELVE PAGES OF RETAILERS' CARDS 



This department for the cards of Leading Retail Florists — those florists who have the facilities 

 for filling the orders sent them by other florists — has made possible the recent rapid development of 

 this branch of the business, a branch of the trade now established for all time and so helpful that 

 its volume will keep on increasing for many years. 



Are you sending and receiving your share of these orders? You can send your share (and make 

 20 per cent profit without effort) if you let your customers know you can perform this service for 

 them. To receive your share — well, The Review's department for Retailers' cards remains the one 

 way of getting prompt action on the order in ha id. 



To be represented costs only 70 cents per week on a yearly order. This is for one-inch space. 

 Other spaces in proportion. 



Why not send your order today — now — befo e you forget it?

The Market. 



The week following Easter proved a 

 most unsatisfactory one to growers and 

 wholesalers. The blizzard of April 3 

 caused a heavy surplus to be crowded 

 into ice-chests and the market has not 

 yet become normal. But for the un- 

 welcome snow storm there would have 

 been a good clean-up this week all 

 around. Roses have had a tough week 

 and clearances have only been made at 

 low figures. Good sellers continue to 

 be Russell, Hadley, Taft, Sunburst, Kil- 

 larney Queen, Killarney Brilliant and 

 Miller. Killarney and White Ballamey 

 are each in overaupply. Carnations 

 continue oflf crop with nearly all grow- 

 ers and sell fairly well at about half 

 the prices of the previous week. Sin- 

 gle violets are out of the market, but 

 doubles will last a week or two longer. 

 Sweet peas are of splendid quality and 

 are as popular as anything on the 

 market. Nothing but the Spencers are 

 wanted. Snapdragons sell slowly, as do 

 Easter lilies, callas, stocks and calen- 

 dulas. Valley has been moving well 

 for funeral orders. Dutch bulbous 

 flowers are all lower in price, but no 

 decided glut of them has yet taken 

 place. There are now good supplies of 

 Spanish iris. Yellow marguerites drag, 

 but good bachelor's buttons clean up 

 well. Some Cattleya Mossiee is coming 

 in. This sells much better than C. 

 SchroederBB. Gardenias are good, but 

 are in excess of the market's needs.
