January 12, 1905. 



THE NEW 



ROSE 



WELLESLEY 



Is a welcome addition to the list of forcing roses. 



Color is bright pink^ with reverse of petals clear silvery pink, thus producing a combina- 

 tion that is exceedingly effective either in daylight or artificial light. Growth is very free 

 and exceptionally vigorous and will prove satisfactory every month in the year. Delivery 

 strictly in rotation, beginning April first. PRICES: Own Root— $25 per 100; $55 per 250; 

 $J00 per 500; $200 per 1000. Grafted— $30 per 100; $70 per 250; $J30per 500; $260 per 1000.

CLEVELAND, 



The Market. 



A trip to the various stores found a 

 tired looking lot, after the holiday rush, 

 byt I am pleased to say that all wore a 

 pleasant smile and were in quite a cheer- 

 ful mood, which augurs well for the busi- 

 aess transacted. At New Year's, while 

 not a wonderful holiday for florists, I can 

 say with utmost confidence a magnificent 

 trade was done. The market, with the 

 exception of white stock, was cleaned out 

 (jompletely and many more good colored 

 roses and carnations could have been dis- 

 posed of. Christmas prices ruled in most 

 lines, but since have taken a decided 

 drop. 



There were many receptions, balls and 

 debutantes' parties between the holi- 

 days, which kept the retailers on the 

 jump. They were divided between the 

 J. M. Gasser Co., Collins & Harrison 

 and Smith & Fetters. 



Business since New Year's has oeen 

 about normal with plenty of stock to go 

 around, there being no overplus to speak 

 of, as most growers are very mucn off 

 crop at present. 



Various Notes. 



Robert Kegg, of Rocky River, Is send- 

 ing in some nice Lawson and Manle> car- 

 nations to the Cleveland Cut Flower Co. 



The Ohio Floral Co. is cutting very 

 fine Enchantress carnations. 



Herman Hart had a magnificent lot of 

 , good stock for the holidays, which ae 

 'Yeadily disposed of at retail. The new 

 carnation range was in full crop of very 

 fine blooms, which reflects great credit 

 upon the grower. The plant is a model 

 of neatness and is up-to-date in all re- 

 spects. Next season the old range will 

 be replaced by a new one with a beau- 

 tiful store front to handle the increasing 

 business. 



At a meeting of the Florists' Club re- 

 cently it was decided to hold a carnation 

 show on a small scale on January 23. 

 All local growers will make a display, as 

 well as some of the big fellows. A notice 

 will be sent out and a fine attendance 

 should result. 



L. C. Hecock. of Elyria, reports a fine 

 trade for the holidavs. 



W. L. Jones, of Lorain, says he could 

 have disposed of twice the quantity of 

 flowers. 



Quite a number of Cleveland florists 

 anticipate going to Chicago to the carna- 

 tion convention.
