The Florists' Review 



Uat ?7. 1915. 



FOET WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Business during the last two weeks 

 lias been rushing. The bedding season 

 is in full swing, although it has been 

 hindered by unseasonably cool weather. 

 Besides the bedding plant trade, nu- 

 merous weddings and commencements 

 and much funeral work have kept the 

 florists hustling. 



Cut flower stock is of excellent qual- 

 ity, and there is a wealth of variety 

 available. Roses are in excellent con- 

 dition. Local peonies have appeared 

 on the market, as well as outdoor Ger- 

 man iris. Miniature gladioli are in 

 and also some fine greenhouse-grown 

 America. Sweet peas are decreasing. 

 There has been a big demand for smi- 

 lax, owing to the large confirmation 

 classes. 



The outlook for Memorial day is a 

 scarcity of flowers, owing to the un- 

 favorable weather and the immense de- 

 mand during the last few weeks. 



Various Notes. 



At the equal suffrage bridge, which 

 was given in the Commercial Club 

 rooms Saturday, May 22, the floral dec- 

 orations consisted of long-stemmed 

 snapdragons and Sunburst and white 

 Killarney roses, which carried out the 

 suffrage colors of yellow and white. 



The opening of Teppel Bros.' new de- 

 partment store was the occasion for 

 showy decorations Saturday, May 22. 



A wedding of much beauty occurred 

 Tuesday, May 4, when Miss Ruth Flick 

 became the bride of Richard Blossom. 

 The ceremony was performed at St. 

 Patrick's Catholic church, which was 

 decorated with Easter lilies and snap- 

 dragons. The bride's bouquet was 

 made of lilies of the valley with clus- 

 ters of white orchids. The maid of 

 honor, Miss Marguerite Flick, and the 

 three bridesmaids had bouquets of 

 Ophelia roses in colonial style with 

 edging of old-fashioned lace. Geor- 

 gia Alice Flick, who acted as flower 

 girl, carried a daisy chain. The recep- 

 tion was held at the Flick home, where 

 great quantities of southern huckle- 

 berry foliage and smilax were used. 

 Bronze baskets and wall baskets were 

 filled with snapdragons, lilacs, deutzias, 

 roses, sweet peas and apple blossoms. 

 The bride and groom took an eastern 

 trip, and will be at home after July 1 

 at 444 Arcadia court. R. F.
