The Florists^ Review 



JUNB 24, ldl5. 



KANSAS dtTY. 



The Market. 



Busino^ is good, except for those who 

 carry bedding stock, the sale of which 

 has been slow on account of the con- 

 tinuous rain. Seedling plants sold well; 

 the only stock left is geraniums. 



Roses are surprisingly good for this 

 time of the year. Bussell roses are more 



Slentiful than they have evet been. 

 Ither varieties are in large supply, with 

 a steady demand. Carnations were 

 somewhat scarce last week. Some nice 

 gladioli are coming in, which bring fair 

 prices. Lilies are plentiful; prices on 

 these range considerably on account of 

 the quality. Sweet peas are plentiful, 

 but are bringing only a small price. 

 Various Notes. 



The Costello Moore Floral Co. is well 

 satisfied with its location, as business 

 has increased considerably since the 

 Hotel Muehlebach has started, with two 

 other good hotels on each side and no 

 competitor near. 



The Rosery has plenty of orders for 

 decorations on hand. Mr. Ellsworth has 

 his stock plants of poinsettias in good 

 shape. He expects to propagate a great 

 number of these this summer. 



Business across the state line was 

 good last week, especially in funeral 

 work and wedding decorations. 



Stevens & Larkin are sending in some 

 good carnations. They are well satis- 

 fied with results so far this season. 

 They will begin soon to plant their 

 houses with carnations from the field. 



Henry Kusik & Co. are busy at pres- 

 ent in their wire work department. Mr. 

 Kusik now receives consignments from 

 Chicago, where heretofore he has relied 

 on stock from this vicinity, Iowa and 

 Nebraska. 



lE. G. Bunyar has sold practically ev- 

 erything he had in his houses. He has 

 his place all planted and is now plan- 

 ning for this summer's fishing trips. 

 His greenhouses are in excellent shape. 



The S. Bryson Ayres Co. is heavily 

 stocked with sweet peas. They will 

 soon have a large supply of gladioli 

 from the field. 



August Luther, Jr., is well satisfied 

 with the business he has done this sea- 

 son, which is the first in his present 

 location. He is pretty well cleaned up 

 on all his bedding plants, and reports 

 that he is well satisfied with cut flower 

 trade. W. J. B.
