The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



■ ..«»r,j: ■-•■«' ;'A:\;'- 



Decembeb 16, 1904. 



KANSAS CITY. 



The Market. 



All the florists are trimming their win- 

 dows with holly and mistletoe and shop- 

 pers are placing quite a number of ad- 

 vance orders. Eoses are plentiful, de- 

 mand fair and prices about the same as 

 usual. Carnations are scarce, prices are 

 going up and the demand exceeds the 

 supply. Poinsettias are in demand for 

 table decorations but the supply as yet 

 is short. lily of the valley and Paper 

 Whites are selling well, with the supply 

 plentiful. Everything promises unusual- 

 ly good business from now on. 



Various Notes. 



An unfortunate occurrence happened 

 at Alfred Barbe's last week. Two of 

 his workmen, while engaged in placing 

 plants on the benches, became involved 

 in a brawl. The result, one in the hos- 

 pital, severely wounded, and the other 

 in jail. 



Miss Murray, on Grand avenue, re- 

 ports business good in her line and has 

 already booked some fine orders for 

 Christmas. 



The best violets shown by any one in 

 the city are in the show window of 

 Freudenthal, on Walnut street. They 

 are from Ed. Bunyar, of Independence. 



Lawrence Schwager is putting in a 

 large stock of Christmas trees and re- 

 ports a good business at his Walnut 

 street store. 



The Union Depot Flower Co, will 

 move from the present location on Wal- 

 nut street about the first of January, 

 their lease having expired. 



Jacob Tobeler, of Westport, is buying 

 a large stock of holly. 



Mr. Smith, of near Elmwood, sold his 

 property last week for $18,000 and has 

 bought property near E. S. Brown's, in 

 Mlaywood, which he expects to occupy in 

 early spring. 



Sam Sharp, Thirty-third and Prospect 

 street, is sending in some fine azaleas 

 and Gloire de Lorraine begonias. 



Mrs. Juvell, of Grand avenue, reports 

 business as fair at present, with good 

 prospects for Christmas trade. 



Naecissus. 



NASHVILLE, TENN. 



The Joy & Son Company is justly re- 

 garded as the leading firm south of the 

 Ohio river. The business was estab- 

 lished twenty-five years ago by T. S. 

 Joy and for many years was conducted 

 under the name of Joy & Son. This firm 

 was succeeded three years ago by the 

 present company, which was incorporated 

 with the following oflScials: T. S. Joy, 

 president; T. C. Joy, vice-president, and 

 Mrs. T. S. Joy, secretary and treasurer. 

 The greenhouses are forty in number 

 and equipped throughout in the most 

 modem and eflScient manner. The land 

 is from seven to eight acres, and there 

 are 200,000 square feet of glass, cover- 

 ing a general stock. ■ The eompony alao 



maintains an up-town salesroom at No. 

 600 Church street. They not only carry 

 on a large local trade, but ship large 

 quantities of designs, cut flowers and 

 plants throughout the south.

 it is the best florist paper published and
