The Weekly Florists' Review* 



OCTOBBB 18, 1006. 





CINC3NNATL 



The Market 



This is a season of weather surprises. 

 We have had our first freeze and our 

 first snow, but what was unusual about 

 it was that we had a hard freeze before 

 we had a frost. We were sorry to see 

 the outdoor stock destroyed, as it was 

 selling first-class, owing to the scarcity 

 of all indoor-grown blooms. There is a 

 fair quantity of everything in season 

 coming in, but the demand is so large 

 that it is sold out as fast as it arrives. 

 Business is all that can be desired. All 

 grades of stock go out at good prices, 

 which are now about equal to those of 

 midwinter. The retailers are busy with 

 funeral work and there are many wed- 

 ding decorations. 



Boses are in fairly good crop and the 

 quality has been improved by the colder 

 weather. White and red sell bgst, but 

 pink is not far behind. Beauties are 

 meeting an active demand, and sell out 

 clean at top prices. As to carnations, 

 there does not seem to be much chance 

 for a good supply for a month at least. 

 They are late this year, and as a conse- 

 quence there are not enough to fill or- 

 ders. The prices are high. Some fine 

 carnations are being shipped from the 

 Richmond growers. This stock is sold 

 at sight. Mums are selling well, and 

 prospects point to a successful season 

 for them. Many growers have already 

 sold out their early varieties and soon 

 will be in with the midseason ones. The 

 local growers are late this year, and 

 few of them are in with even the earliest 

 varieties, but the market has been pretty 

 well supplied by out of town growers for 

 the wholesale trade. Lily of the valley 

 is selling well and some good stock is 

 coming in. What few violets come in 

 find a ready sale. Green goods are plen- 

 tiful, with the exception of smilax. 



Variotts Notes. 



On Saturday evening the regular 

 monthly meeting of the Florists' Society 

 will be held, it having been postponed 

 one week, as stated in last week's notes. 

 It is to be hoped that the retail florists 

 will avail themselves of the invitation 

 to meet with the society, and that plans 

 pointing towards an improvement in the 

 flower shows given by the society will 

 be the result. 



E. G. Gillett made a trip into In- 

 diana last week. C. J. Ohmer. 



Warren, 0. — Mrs. Geo. "W. Gaskill 

 sold her greenhouse to D. P. Nelson, of 

 Chicago. 



Clakinda, Ia. — The greenhouses for- 

 merly owned by Pfander & Peirce have 

 been torn down and replaced by modem 

 ones in a better location. J. V. Pfander 

 has bought the interest of Mr. Peirce, 

 who retires from the firm. The new 

 buildings consist of two houses, one de- 

 voted to carnations and the other to pot- 

 ted plants. The walls are made of ce- 

 ment blocks.

Last Winter a local grower visited otir place for the ptirpose of buying a stock of 

 some £ood crimson carnation. "We showed him a good bed of Harlowarden 

 and took his order for a qtiantityr. A few minutes later we showed fiim 



POCAHONTAS 



wherettpon he decided tfiat he did not want Harlowarden, but would wait a 

 year atid get Pocahontas. Now that's the kind of argument that talks. You 

 would do the same as he did* that's why we want you to come and see 

 it growing. Will promise to show it to you just as it irrows. No dressing-up 

 for company every morning) Pocahontas does not need it.
