The Florists^ Review 



OCTOBBB 14, 1915. 



FOET WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



We experienced a heavy frost Octo- 

 Toer 9, which did considerable damage 

 "to all outdoor stock, particularly in 

 the suburban districts. The florists had 

 been expecting a killing frost for sev- 

 » «ral weeks. Market conditions have 

 changed greatly and are assuming the 

 aspect of winter. Chrysanthemums and 

 ■other greenhouse stock are rapidly tak- 

 ing the place of the numerous dahlias, 

 asters, etc., that have carried the mar- 

 ket during the last month. Pink Octo- 

 laer Frost and Chrysolora are the best 

 varieties. Early Snow has made its 

 appearance. Gladioli have seen their 

 £nish. American Beauties are not in 

 •oversupply at present. Shawyer, Sun- 

 burst and Richmond roses are in big 

 demand. Valley has a good call for 

 wedding decorations. Carnations are 

 improving, but they are not any too 

 plentiful. Prices are good. Easter 

 lilies are not so plentiful as a few 

 weeks ago and consequently sell quick- 

 ly. Southern smilax has been used in 

 •quantities for decorations. 



Various Notes. 



The fine pink October Frosts seen on 

 ■the market last week were from the 

 "W. J. & M. S. Vesey greenhouses. 



The Flick Floral Co. had the deco- 

 rations and bouquets for a large wed- 

 -ding last week. The decorations were 

 carried out, in autumnal colors, with 

 French baskets of roses and single 

 chrysanthemums. The bride's bouquet 

 consisted of white orchids and lilies of 

 the valley. A large number of corsages 

 were shipped by this firm for an out- 

 of-town dance. 



Mr. and Mrs. Richard Blossom re- 

 turned from a motor trip to Rockford, 

 O., October 3. 



G. W. Doswell & Son are cutting 

 early chrysanthemums, chiefly Golden 

 Glow, October Frost and Smith's Ad- 

 vance. R. F. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Business was fairly good last week. 

 The demand was steady and active, 

 and easily took up all good stock. The 

 shipping bushiess, too, was good. 

 Boses are in good supply and are meet- 

 ing with a ready sale. Carnations are 

 being moved without much trouble. 

 The cut of chrysanthemums is much 

 heavier than it was and in another 

 week they should be quite plentiful. 

 Easter lilies have been meeting with 

 an active demand. A killing frost last 

 week took most of the dahlias and 

 cosmos out of the market. Other of- 

 ferings include rubnim lilies, orchids, 

 valley and a few snapdragons. 



Various Notes. 



L. H, Kyrk was the first wholesaler 

 to offer single violets this fall. They 

 were from George Klotter's place. 



C. E. Critchell is not waiting until 

 the last minute to put boxwood in 

 storage. He has been at it almost 

 every day since the cooler weather 

 came. 



A. Sunderbruch 's Sons had an ex- 

 ceedingly busy time with decorative 

 work last week. . 



Among recent visitors was C. P. 

 Brunner, of Springfield, O. C. H. H.
