The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



Mabch 29, 1906. 



ROCHESTER. 



Last week business was rather slow. 

 Naturally, some reason had to be found 

 and Lent got the brunt of it, whether 

 guilty or otherwise. All sorts of stock 

 dragged, including the much abused 

 daffodil. Well, honestly, it was the 

 worst sinner in the bunch. People did 

 not give afternoon teas, get married or 

 die. Hence the doleful expression on 

 the countenances of our local trade. 

 This week, however, things have as- 

 sumed a rosier hue and the prospects 

 are happier. 



I had a chance last week to have a look 

 at J. B. Keller's Sons' establishment. 

 Everything is in healthy condition, 

 promising well for Easter wealth, and 

 the florists, not only in Eochester but 

 elsewhere, can stand all the profits com- 

 ing their way. Keller's folks grow a 

 large variety of plants and the product 

 is immense in quantity as well as qual- 

 ity. Bulbous stock as well as rhodo- 

 dendrons, azaleas, lilacs, genistas, 

 spiraeas, etc., all speak highly for the 

 growers' care. 



George Hart predicts a good Easter 

 trade, and at present, among other cut " 

 flowers, is receiving some extra choice 

 Beauties, hyacinths, tulips, sweet peas, 

 mignonette, all coming in large lots.

The florists took three straight bowl- 

 ing games from the gardeners March 

 20, in a match on the Antlers alleys, 

 leading by a safe margin in each game.
