The Weekly Florists' Review*

TWIN QTIES. 



The Market 



Business last week is reported by 

 most of the trade to have been very 

 good. The planting season was in full 

 swing and on that account all of the 

 dealers are kept going at a lively rate. 

 It appears that there has been more 

 planting done this year than in any 

 previous season. Geraniums in 4-inch 

 pots have been wholesaling at $1.25 a 

 dozen. It is evident that a great many 

 more were grown this season than last 

 year. Outside of geraniums there is not 

 a great deal on hand. Nearly every 

 order from outside calls for a number 

 of Baby Rambler roses, we presume on 

 account of the fact of it being so 

 heavily advertised. 



The cut flower trade is slow. The an- 

 nual meeting of the Federation of Wo- 

 men's Clubs created some demand, espe- 

 cially for American Beauty, but it did 

 not last long enough to give the dealers 

 a chance to make much, Eoses are now 

 plentiful, whereas a week ago they could 

 not be bought for any price. Carnations 

 arc back to 75 cents a dozen. Decora- 

 tion day they were sold quite readily at 

 $1 and $1.50 a dozen, and it was not 

 a matter of price, but a question of get- 

 ting them. 



St. Paul. 



L. L. May & Co. report good business 

 in the planting line. Retail business 

 has been somewhat quiet, but funeral 

 work keeps up. 



Holm & Olson are busy getting their 

 new store in shape, which they intend to 

 occupy about July 1. They are having 

 a skylight in the rear, which will act 

 as a conservatory and will no doubt 

 present a good appearance. 



C. F. Vogt says business is good, but 

 the trade is mostly in the plant line. 



H. Puvogel says that this is the best 

 plant year he has had, and that he is 

 still buried in orders. 



Minneapolis. 



The Whittcd Floral Co. now has one 

 of the prettiest stores in the city. The 

 display windows are large and give 

 ample room to make a good showing. 



Carl Johannsen, with the Powers 

 Mercantile Co., says trade is keeping up 

 fine. He says Saturday is his day, as 

 he sells carnations almost by the thou- 

 sand. 



Rice Bros, are 'doing a nice business, 

 shipping considerable stock into the 

 country. Tbcy also report a good city 

 business. 



"Will & Son are busy building their 

 new range of houses, which when com- 

 plete will be one of the finest in this 

 section. Felix.
