The Florists^ Review 



Jdlt Sl2, 1915. 



ATLANTA, OA. 



Various Notes. 



Everything is in readiness for the 

 florists' picnic, to be held July 23 at 

 Willoughbeach park. Indoor baseball, 

 races, tug of war, etc., will be on the 

 program, as usual. 



The new Lord & Burnham house at 

 the Newton Falls range of the Cleveland 

 Cut Flower Co. is fast nearing comple- 

 tion. A force of glaziers is at work on 

 it this week. 



One-fifth of the space for the trade 

 display at the flower show has been 

 sold, and this is considered good prog- 

 ress at this date. The Coliseum ha^ 

 been spaced off to show just where thj 

 various competitive exhibits will be 

 staged. In this way space for the trade 

 display may be secured near the retail 

 display, the private gardeners' section 

 or the commercial section. Thus the 

 tradesmen will be able to obtain the 

 maximum amount of good from their 

 space, by being stationed close to the 

 exhibits of the men to whom they most- 

 ly cater. F. A. F.

The Market. 



Business last week suffered a marked 

 falling off because of the excessive beat. 

 Otherwise, business conditions remained 

 unchanged, there being a superabun- 

 dance of all kinds of stock, but nothing 

 fancy in sight. 



Current rumor has it that a whole- 

 sale market is to be established here 

 in October. It is said that such a 

 movement would be viewed with ap- 

 proval by all. A wholesale market is 

 Atlanta's greatest need. 



Various Notes. 



At the greenhouses of J. Coursey 

 everything looks spick-and-span. Mr. 

 Coursey expects a large crop of carna- 

 tions. His fern house contains some 

 extra fine Boston ferns. 



A. Borg, of the Atlanta Floral Co., 

 will devote most of his time in the 

 future to the greenhouse plant. He 

 predicts some exceptional stock. 



John Wilson has booked several large 

 out-of-town wedding orders. 



Among visitors last week was L. A. 

 Woodward, of Philadelphia, represent- 

 ing the Lord & Burnham Co. 



Out at College Park, W. N. Vary has 

 some extra fine field-grown flowers, par- 

 ticularly asters and gladioli. The green- 

 houses are well stocked with potted 

 plants. 



At J. R. Frank's place there is a 

 wide assortment of stock, all well 

 grown. J. W.

WINTER-FLOWERING ROSES 



Specially Low Prioes to Close Out Stocks Remainlnir Unsold. 



We have a particularly fine stock of the newer and leading standard yarieties 

 in 3^ and 4-inch pots ready for immediate planting. The prices quoted below for 

 3^ and 4-iuch stock are as low as the prices at which 2^4-inch stock is usually 

 sold. The demand for Ophelia is very heavy. If you want lo plant this valu- 

 able new rose, do not delay placing order. While we have a nice stock of it 

 at present, at the rate it is selling we are likely to become sold out before long.

NEW NEPHR0LEPI8 FERN-JOHN WANAMAKER 



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



fern to the trade, we feel confident that it will make a place for itself. 

 The John Wanamaker fern is a wonderful advance over all plain or wavy frond 

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

 , 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. 



Strong plants, 2^-in. pots, - $ 4.00 per dozen. 



20.00 per 100. 

 250 at 1000 rate. 150.00 per 1000.
