The Florists^ Review

The lilarket. 



Memorial day business was up to 

 standard. Although the holiday was 

 of three days' duration, Saturday 

 proved to be the one big day. Every- 

 one cleaned up fairly well, and white 

 carnations were short of the demand. 

 Iris and other outside flowers were 

 plentiful and relieved matters some- 

 what. Boses and sweet peas found a 

 ready market, but, as usual, carnations 

 had the first call. 



On account of the inclement weather, 

 the outside work was put off until the 

 last moment, and consequently Monday 

 morning found several florists at the 

 cemeteries finishing up in a hurry. 

 The usual heavy demand was made on 

 the local wholesale plant market for 

 geraniums and by Memorial day it was 

 impossible to get any stock in bloom. 



There is now plenty of stock on the 

 market, and it is moving fairly well. 

 Carnations are exceptionally good for 

 this time of the year. Outdoor lilies 

 and plenty of locsd peonies have made 

 their appearance. 



Various Notes. 



Eli Cross is still rushed with outside 

 work. He is preparing to occupy his 

 new store, in the City Bank building, 

 about June 15. 



Henry Smith reports a nice clean-up 

 on his stock of shipping geraniums. 

 Miss Robinson, of Henry Smith's force, 

 cannot talk above a whisper because of 

 a bad cold. 



Alfred Hannah had a pretty display 

 in his window last week in honor of 

 the visiting Elks. 



Eli Cross featured a large picture of 

 all the local Elks in his window, and 

 it drew a steady crowd during the con- 

 vention. 



Several out-of-town florists attended 

 the big state Elks' convention. Among 

 the number were J. C. Vaughan, of 

 Chicago; L. Wasserman, of Muskegon; 

 D. Vincent and Harvey Kidder, of 

 Ionia; Stephen Green, of H. Bayers- 

 dorfer & Co., Philadelphia, and Mr. 

 Anderson, of the A. L. Bandall Co., 

 Chicago. 



Arthur P. Crabb has ordered a large 

 refrigerator of the McCray Refrigera- 

 tor Co. for his new store. A. F. C.

We will introduce the above new fern on Au^st 1st, 1916. In presenting this

 varieties. The side pinnae of the fronds are very fully undulated, Riving 

 the plants a very wavy appearance, it will make as many fronds as 

 Teddy, Jr., plants in 4-inch pots having over sixty fronds. It is a beauti- 

 fully formed plant, full and compact. 

 Orders will be filled strictly in rotation.
