The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



August 24, 1905. 



KANSAS CITY. 



The Market 



There is very little to report from b*'re 

 this week, several of our leading florists 

 being out of town attending the conven- 

 tion. This city was visited by a severe 

 storm ol' wind and rain, damaging the 

 growing crops, but inflicting little dam- 

 age to stuflf not yet housed. Nearly all 

 the growers have benched their carna- 

 tions, a few stUl holding off. Boses are 

 beginning to come in in better condition 

 and prices are stiffening up a little. 

 Carnations are still of poor quality and 

 are not in very great demand. Asters, 

 gladioli; rudbeckia and other summer 

 blooms are selling fairly well, but only 

 fair prices are being realized. 



Various Notes. 



Several of the florists here suffered 

 quite a loss to their glass by a hail 

 storm which passed ever here last Thurs- 

 day. 



While visiting among the growers last 

 week v:e found some new places which 

 have been overlooked in the past. Among 

 those visited was the plant of Chas. 

 Laundy, of 4800 Broadway. Mr. Laun- 

 dy is off quite a piece from the car line, 

 but his place reflects credit upon his ef- 

 forts. Although a young man, starting 

 with but little capital six years ago, he 

 has BOW 6,000 feet of glass devoted to 

 bedding plants exclusively. His local 

 trade is sufficient to clean up his entire 

 atock. 



Another place visited was that of A. 

 Blankenfeld, at Thirty-eighth and Main. 

 His place consists of about 6,000 feet, in 

 which are grown about 3,000 carnations, 

 principally Joost, for which he has an 

 excellent market. Mr. Blankenfeld has 

 a bench of excellent mums which are the 

 best 1 have seen. His trade has reached 

 quite satisfactory proportions. 



An invitation has been extended by 

 one of our prominent florists to attend 

 an outing to be given by him about the 

 middle of next month at his country 

 home to all the florists in the city and 

 vicinity. A large crowd is expected and 

 as the host is known never to do any- 

 thing by halves, a splendid time is as- 

 sured. 



"The finest we have ever seen for this 

 time of the year, ' ' was the verdict of a 

 number of out-of-town florists, who un- 

 der vhe chaperonage of your correspond- 

 ent looked into the house of Gloire de 

 Lorraine belonging to Samuel Murray, 

 at Thirty-third and Prospect. That he 

 will create a sensation at the flower show 

 goes without saying. 



Speaking of the flower show, that it 

 will be one of the finest is assured, 

 backed as it is by the best business men 

 in the city, who will spare no expense to 

 make it a howling success. Their mot- 

 to has always been, "Hang the expense, 

 only make this town a good place in 

 which to live." Narcissus.
