The Florists' Review 



April 29, 1915. 



The Climax Cut Hower Boxes 



"A BOX FOR EVERY FLOWER" 



SEVEN GRADES-Oxford Gray, Mist Green, Nonpareil Green, White 

 Carnation, White Glazed and our popular "Favorite Grade"— the latter a heavy, 

 full telescope shipping box. Holiday boxes in their season. 



We have over 150 sizes in the different colors and shades in stock. If you 

 need a special size we will make it promptly and not charge you an exorbitant 

 price. 



"WHKN BETTKR BOXES ARK MADE WK WILL MAKE THEM" 



Florist boxes are a specialty with us. We know what the florist needs and 

 ^ how to make the box to meet his requirements. When it comes to Quality, Ar- 

 tistic Printing, Embossing and Quick Service, we are headquarters and on the job every minute. If you have never used a 

 "Climax Blower Box" you have missed something real good. Before placing your next order write us for samples and prices.

by Brilliant and Queen. Mock is good 

 and in fair supply. Aaron Ward and 

 Sunburst are also quite good. Mary- 

 landa are plentiful, but do not meet 

 with a ready sale. Shawyer is fair in 

 quality and demand. Carnations have 

 been overplentiful, but the supply is 

 letting up and prices are advancing. 

 Spanish iris has sold well. Violets are 

 rapidly going off the market, although 

 a few good lots of Ehinebecks were 

 to be had during the week. Sweet 

 peas are not as plentiful as they have 

 been and move better. Outside lilac 

 is in full bloom, and meets with a 

 fair sale. Gardenias are not as large 

 as they have been, but are holding up 

 well. While there has been a slight 

 improvement in snapdragon sales, this 

 flower is gradually losing its popular- 

 ity. The Easter lily season is about 

 over and only a small stock is being 

 carried to meet the calls for funeral 

 work. Calla lilies have been quite 

 plentiful, but hav6 failed to bring a 

 price. 



Funeral work has been plentiful and 

 many large pieces were called for on 

 the death of a prominent naval official 

 and an equally prominent railroad of- 

 ficial. The spfing meeting of the 

 Daughters of the American iRevolution 

 brought considerable business, both in 

 the way of tea and dinner decorations 

 and corsage bouquets and cut flowers. 

 This boosted the demand for orchids 

 and gardenias ^nd created a den^and 

 for yellow and white daisies and Eng- 

 lish primroses. 



Various Notes. _^ 



Charles Scarborough, witn Gude 

 Bros. Co., has returned to this city 

 from his home in Pennsylvania, where 

 be has been recuperating from the re- 

 cent street car accident in which he 

 was hurt. Earl Wilson, with the same 

 firm, is still on the sick list with a 

 badly poisoned arm. 



Wallace W. Kimmell, the recently 

 elected chairman of the club of retail 

 florists, is extremely gratified with the 

 support that organization is being 

 given. The object of the club is pri- 

 marily that of waging war upon the 

 vendors of flowers who infest the 

 streets. Plans were brought near to 

 completion at the meeting held last 

 week at the Hotel Hudson for the 

 making of an endeavor to secure 

 either adequate and new legislation or

 now be on the statute books, which 

 deal with this evil. The selling of 

 potted plants, bulbs and cut flowers 

 by the department stores was also 

 given consideration. During the course 

 of the evening the members enjoyed an 

 excellent lunch. Other officers se- 

 lected were H. T. Leapley, secretary, 

 and William Marche, treasurer.
