The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



Septbubdr 21, 1905. 



DENVER, 



The Market 



Business conditions remain about the 

 same as last week, trade continuing fair- 

 ly good for September, Stock is in good 

 shape. Brides and Maids have increased 

 offerings and are fine in bud and stems. 

 Chatenays are also good, quite a few se- 

 lects being cut, while Liberty is not far 

 behind. Some of the new Bichmond are 

 seen, as well as Rosalind Orr English, be- 

 ing fine in color and witB~qirite-gQod 

 stems. Some of the new crop of cams 

 tions are now coming into the ixiarket,\ 

 but as yet are not very long in st^m, but 

 are improving every day, the white, per- 

 haps, being the best. 



Asters are very much in evidence in 

 all colors. White and purple sell well, 

 while pink go slowly. The top price is 

 $3 per hundred and down as low as 50 

 cents for common. Dahlias are now to 

 be had in quantity in all shades of color 

 and appear to be fine, the weather hav- 

 ing been favorable. 



Variotis Notes. 



W. W. Wilmore, the dahlia specialist, 

 was a large prize-winner at a recent 

 show of the El Paso County Horticul- 

 tural Society. For general collection of 

 dahlia plants, he took first prize, a sil- 

 ver cup; first prize for general collection 

 of named varieties, cut flowers; first for 

 ten named varieties, show or fancy 

 ■dahlias; second for named varieties of 

 «actus dahlias and collection of singles; 

 first for display of named novelties not 

 disseminated before 1904; second for 

 five named pompon dahlias; first for six 

 varieties and for five blooms Twentieth 

 Century. Mr. Wilmore also won first 

 prize for general collection of gladioli 

 and for twelve spikes red and for twelve 

 spikes blue or lavender. 



Wm. F. Gude, of Washington, D. C, 

 was a caller a week ago, it being his 

 first visit to this section of the country. 

 He expressed himself as greatly pleased 

 with Colorado. His party was in a rail- 

 road accident. The car containing the 

 party en route to Salida, Colo., collided 

 with a freight train on Labor day, kill- 

 ing four. Two were brought to the hos- 

 pital here and six returned to their 

 homes. 



At the Colorado State Fair, held at 

 Pueblo, Colo., September 11 to 15, an 

 interesting branch was the floricultural 

 department. In the various collections 

 of plants the Park Floral Co., of Denver, 

 won first premium in every case, with one 

 exception. In cut flowers and floral de- 

 signs they also carried away first premi- 

 ums with the exception of a table and 

 mantel decoration, which were second. 

 The displays in this department at the 

 fair were far ahead of any previous 

 year. 



Emil Glauber is cutting some very fine 

 asters just now, some measuring four 

 and five inches. E. S. K. 



LINCOLN, NEB. 



This year's state fair was the best 

 yet. The attendance was far ahead of 

 last year. The exhibit of the florists in 

 horticultural hall was chiefly made up 

 of palms, ferns and foliage plants. AU 

 the old varieties and some new ones were 

 there to create covetous desires for the 

 average woman. Besides a choice dis- 

 play of decorative plants, L. Henderson, 

 of Omaha, showed a gay row of Japan 

 lilies and plenty of begonias, roses and
