The Florists' Review 



April 29, 1913. 



NOTES FROM UTAH. 



The Market. 



Owing to the good weather that has 

 prevailed over this part of the coun- 

 try, the growers have had exceptionally 

 large crops of cut flowers for this time 

 of the year. Business has been good. 

 There is much funeral work, which 

 keeps the large stock used up pretty 

 well. Some carnations are being lost 

 and snapdragons are moving slowly. 



There has been a fairly good demand 

 for porch boxes made up of an assort- 

 ment of Boston and Whitmani ferns, 

 table ferns, Asparagus Sprengeri and 

 plumosus and begonias. Other porch 

 boxes are made up of geraniums and 

 other seasonable plants. The demand 

 for potted Boston and "Whitmani ferns 

 is good. Spiraea did not take well this 

 year, and some plants are left over. 

 The hardy Oregon fern is used exten- 

 sively and has a large demand. Early 

 gladioli are on the market and find a 

 ready sale. Pansy plants sell well. 



The fruit blossoms, lilacs and German 

 iris which are in bloom find their way 

 into the homes and are used a little for 

 the table, but do not injure the busi- 

 ness to any great extent. 



Park City. 



A. Silvester has opened a retail store 

 here and reports business good. 



Salt Lake City. 



The B. C. Morris Floral Co. and the 

 Huddart Floral Co. have purchased an 

 automobile for delivery purposes. The 

 Huddart Floral Co. has had several 

 wedding decorations. 



E. A. Lambourne reports funeral 

 work exceptionally good. He pur- 

 chased a large stock of first-class roses 

 and long-stemmed American Beauties 

 for the making up of designs for Wm. 

 H. Bancroft's burial. 



The Evans Floral Co. reports hav- 

 ing been unusually busy with funeral 

 work. For the funeral of the vice-pres- 

 ident of the Oregon Short Line Rail- 

 road Co., Wm. H. Bancroft, they had 

 the grave lining work, casket cover 

 and other floral pieces. 



Thomas Hobday has opened his flower 

 department opposite the Newhouse 

 hotel, on Fourth street, south, and Main 

 street. 



The People's Forwarding Co., at 52 

 West First street, south, is handling 

 plants and cut flowers. O. F.

 pieces of board or tacking in i>asteboard

Here Is a practical proijosltion that we 

 have thoroughly tried out at botli our 

 big plants. 



When an ice slide has taken a light 

 out, these boards have proven Invalu- 

 able. For weeks we have loft them in; 

 the weather has not affected their water- 

 proofed surface. 



The time of hail stonns is now with 

 us. Prepare for them. 



Order a bundle of Jiffy Glass Boards 

 at once.
