The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



January 4, 1906. 



LOUISVILLE, KY. 



Christmas trade "was a record-breaker. 

 The weather was all that could be de- 

 sired and reports from the retail stores 

 average an increase of about twenty-five 

 per cent over last year. Prices ruled 

 about the same as last year, except that 

 some very choice stock brought top-notch 

 prices. Azaleas, ferns, poinsettias in 

 pans and cut sold well. The cut flower 

 line was well supplied. Carnations 

 brought good figures, also violets and 

 narcissi. Holly and wild smilax and 

 other evergreens sold better than in 

 former years. 



Mrs. C. B. Thompson made a very 

 handsome display at her store for Christ- 

 mas. The interior of the store was 

 decorated in wild smilax and red Christ- 

 mas bells, with large Boston ferns and 

 poinsettias. 



F. C. Haupt's store was splendidly 

 decorated. The steel ceiling and the 

 holly, wild smilax, Christmas bells, ferns 

 and cut flowers and over 100 electric 

 lights made the store a sight to look at. 

 Fred is the boss decorator, 



Nanz & Neuner made a very handsome 

 display in their show window. Some 

 of thQ finest Begonia Gloire de Lorraine 

 Were seen here. 



Jacob Schulz came in for his share of 

 the Christmas trade. Blooming plants 

 of every description were to be had here. 

 The new store was beautifully decorated 

 and everybody was getting out orders. 



F. "Walker & Co. report a big Christ- 

 mas trade. 



Mrs. C. W. Keimers made a fine dis- 

 play in her window of large cut poinset- 

 tias, the handsomest ever seen here. 



August E. Baumer, the king of the 

 bowlers, as we call him, was smiling all 

 over about the Christmas trade.
