The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



JUND 1. 1905. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



The past week has been a record- 

 breaker among the plantsmen. It has 

 been favorable weather and the people 

 seem to have plenty of money and are 

 willing to spend it. Prices are not high 

 but seem to satisfy the growers. 



The cut flower men had a much better 

 week than for some time and wound iip 

 with a big Saturday. Today, Monday, 

 the day before Decoration day. was like 

 the Saturday before Easter. Every one 

 had all he could do. There are not 

 many outdoor flowers, so that there is 

 a special call for carnations and roses. 



The weather having turned very warm, 

 was hard on stock and one could see pots 

 of sleepy carnations in any of the stores 

 and the market stands which were ex- 

 posed to the draft and air, fared very 

 badly. 



Various Notes. 



The Pittsburg Rose and Carnation Co. 

 is sending in an immense cut these days 

 and the stock is exceptionally fine for 

 Ihis time of the year. 



A good rain last week would have 

 brought in the peonies, but that would 

 have killed the price of other stock, 

 so it is no loss. 



Geo. Marshall, of the Cut Flower Co.. 

 is confined to his bed with measles. 



Randolph & McClements have been of- 

 fering premiums for help the past week. 

 Any old kind of a man that knows plants 

 could have been made use of. 



The Allegheny market people report 

 Decoration day business the best they 

 ever had. 



Theo. F. Beckert is sending in Very 

 fine sweet peas. 



Geraniums have been retailing in the 

 market all week at $1.50 to $2 per 

 dozen and anything else with a good 

 show of bloom brought corresponding 

 ■prices. •• 



T. P. McCormick is no longer with 

 the Pittsburg Florists' Exchange and 

 E. J. McCallum is now in charge.
