The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



Sbptbubbb 20, 1906. 



GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. 



We have had no rain since before the 

 Dayton convention, it has been hot for 

 weeks and everything suffers. Flowers 

 are plentiful. Carnations still are short 

 of stem, but they now will lengthen fast. 

 Boses, considering the hot weather, are 

 of good quality, but inclined to be a 

 little soft. 



The "West Michigan state fair was 

 held last week. The Grand Rapids Flo- 

 ral Co. and Crabb & Hunter had all the 

 plant entries; Chas. Chadwick, Crabb & 

 Hunter and the Grand Rapids Floral 

 Co. all the cut flower and design entries, 

 while Eli Cross showed carnations and 

 put up a floral piece. 



Funeral work was general Monday on 

 account of the demise of A. May, of the 

 Giant Clothing Co., a popular business 

 man. 



The aster beetle did its best to ruin all 

 within reach. Hand picking has at last 

 got the pest under control, but the grass- 

 hopper is still with us and refuses to go 

 hungry while he can find an aster or 

 carnation to dine on. Violets are look- 

 ing fine, and are the cleanest, healthiest 

 looking stock seen in several years. 

 Carnation plants, in spite of the hot 

 weather, took hold well and promise a 

 better crop of flowers for the coming 

 winter than we got last season.

Paducah, Ky.— C. H. Brunson, of C. 

 L. Brunson & Co., is in poor health, and 

 will go south to recuperate. 



Saginaw, Mich.— The William Roethke 

 Floral Co. expects to erect a building 

 on the lot recently purchased by it, cor- 

 ner of Michigan avenue and Adams 

 street, in which a downtown flower store 

 will be established. The company has 

 just completed several large greenhouses, 

 giving it one of the finest establishments 

 in the state.
