The Weekly Florists^ Review*

DENVER. 

 The Market. 



The continued mild weather has af- 

 fected the retail trade in general, but 

 the flower business keeps on about the 

 sjtme, although the past week was not 

 up to the preceding one. Grand opera 

 was the charm that lured society from 

 the drawing rooms this week and many 

 guests from out of town were enter- 

 tained at Denver homes and there were 

 many dinners for these guests, all of 

 which used flowers, more or less. 



Eoses have continued to hold their own 

 pretty well, for the cut of these is not 

 the heaviest. Some of the largest grow- 

 ers have their Beauties off crop and the 

 quantity of select stock coming in is 

 much smaller. A few select reach $50, 

 a more popular grade going at $35. 

 Brides and Maids have made $8 to $10 

 for good stock, but there are rather too 

 many second and third grades coming in. 



There is not much change in prices of 

 carnations, about $3 to $4 being as much 

 as select stock has brought, a few fancies 

 selling higher. 



There are plenty to go around but 

 there is much poor grade stock, one store 

 selling at retail last Saturday at 35 

 cents a dozen. Violets are coming in 

 much more abundantly, and have taken 

 a slump in prices, the best making 75 

 cents per hundred and ordinary, 50 cents 

 a hundred. Tulips are arriving in a 

 greater variety, some colored ones ap- 

 pearing, and good prices are realized for 

 them. Some fine plants are seen at the 

 different shops; viz., azaleas, begonias, 

 etc. 



Various Notes. 



The Alpha Floral Co. is in its new 

 store, with a new coat of paint inside 

 and out, new ice box and more floor 

 room, as well as basement. They are 

 in much better shape to attend to their 

 customers' wants. 



There are three holidays or anniver- 

 saries next month, Lincoln's birthday, 

 "St, Valentine's day and Washington's 

 birthday, all three of which are observed, 

 more or less, here, St. Valentine's day, 

 especially, calling for a large number of 

 violets. Mr. Peterson and Mr. Dank- 

 worth are cutting some extra select ones 

 now and say they will have a fine lot 

 for February 14. 



J. A. Valentine is still in the east, 

 having been in attendance at the Ameri- 

 can Carnation Society at Boston, reading 

 a paper on the carnation in the Rocky 

 Mountains. He is expected back the 

 coming week. E. S. K.
