DETROIT. 



Christmas Trade. 



Christmas of 1905 will always be 

 flpoken of with a smile by the Detroit 

 florists, as business was unusually brisk. 

 With the exception of rain on Thurs- 

 day, the weather was as if made to 

 order. The thermometer remained 

 Jiround the freezing point, turning some- 

 what colder Christmas eve. Palm trade 

 was very good. Bostons, palms, poin- 

 settias, azaleas and cyclamen sold like 

 hot cakes. Begonia Gloire de Lorraine 

 sold fairly well. 



Cut flowers were just about cleaned 

 up at very good prices. Violets were 

 easily disposed of. 



Ground pine can now be bought for a 

 song, as the unusually high price scared 

 out prospective buyers. Holly was very 

 good and sold in large quantities. 



Breitmeyer's army of assistants was 

 kept busy from Saturday morning until 

 Monday noon with hardly time for a 

 nap. 



Taepke was very much handicapped 

 during the rush, Walter having an ulcer- 

 ated tooth and one of his ablest assist- 

 ants being called home on account of a 

 death in the family. 



At Schroder's everything went lovely. 

 P. F. Reuss, a former employee, but 

 now engaged in the cut fern business in 

 Johannesburg, iWich., helped out for the 

 holidays. 



Sullivan was more than rushed. The 

 window was very prettily decorated with 

 an arch of ground pine, studded with 

 red lights. 



Wm. Brown says they can call it a 

 merry Christmas, but he had rather do 

 the same amount of work in three 

 months instead of three days. 



This being_ Mr. Fetters ' first Christ- 

 mas in Detroit, he cannot compare with 

 former years, but, judging from the 

 smile on his face, he seems very well 

 pleased. 



Eobert Flowerday 's rush started so 

 early his familiar face was missed last 

 club meeting night, December 20. 



As only a few of the boys found time 

 to attend the meeting December 20, the 

 session was called off. Thos. Browne 

 showed a fine vase of his white sport 

 of Enchantress, a pure white, and has 

 all the other fine qualities of Enchan- 

 tress. Every plant has come true. Quite 

 an interesting discussion about hot 

 water under pressure was engaged in.
