TheWcckly Horists* Review. 



Fbbbuaby 8, 1906. 



DETROIT. 



The Market. 



Business remains about the same. The 

 weather has taken on more of a winter 

 aspect, it being cold and clear, with sev- 

 eral inches of snow on the ground, pro- 

 ducing a marked improvement in some 

 stock. Roses are a scarce article in 

 tlie market. Carnations sell about as 

 fast as they make their appearance, with 

 the exception of Lawson, The market 

 is fairly drugged with this variety 

 which seems to be getting poorer every 

 day. Shipments from different growers 

 all have the same fault, the flowers are 

 considerably smaller than formerly and 

 crippled; in fact, about the only good 

 feature left is the stiff stems and these 

 seem to be much shorter. 



Hyacinths, tulips, daffodils, narcissi 

 and spring flowers in general are in 

 great demand and as the market is well 

 supplied in this respect, this will no 

 doubt give carnations a chance to catch 

 up. iioth single and double violets are 

 very good at present and are selling well 

 at 75 cents and $1 per -andreu. 



The plant end of the business is re- 

 markably good this year. 



Various Notes. 



In a recent trip to Boston I had the 

 pleasure of visiting the private place 

 of Lars Anderson, at BrooK^ine, where 

 the greenhouses and gardening are very 

 ably conducted by Duncan Finlayson. 



In this estate is one of the most com- 

 plete Italian gardens in America, over 

 100 bay and box trees, from the small 

 swan shaped box to the large stately 

 bay, are used in its completion, these at 



E resent being in their winter quarters. 

 a. the greenhouses were a general assort- 

 ment of plants and flowers, including 

 some fine orchids, all stock being above 

 the average in appearance. 



Harmonic hall was elaborately deco- 

 rated by J. F. Sullivan for the Knights 

 of St. John's ball.
