The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



NOVEMBEB 29, 1906. 



VASHINGTON. 



The Market 



Chrysanthemums continue to monopo- 

 lize attention. The local cut is now at 

 its best and a few fine blooms are being 

 received from out-of-town growers. Of 

 the inferior grades there is a great sup- 

 ply and it does not take much money to 

 get some kind of a flower. This does not 

 mean that the bulk of the crop is in- 

 ferior, but the inevitable culling leaves 

 an accumulation of cheap flowers. 



Various Notes. 



A feature of the trade at present is a 

 big lot of poinsettias being put on the 

 market by A. B. Garden. They are long 

 stems and better flowers than are usually 

 seen at Christmas. 



Z. D. Blackistone is receiving from the 

 north shipments of a fine quality of the 

 Enchantress carnation. 



J. H. Small & Sons are handling fine 

 blooms of several of the new varieties of 

 carnations originated by Weber & Sons 

 of Oakland, Md. 



The Thanksgiving trade is good. From 

 now to the opening of congress is but a 

 breathing spell. Then good-bye to the 

 melancholy days. 



Mr. Hanson, now in charge at F. H. 

 Kramer's Anacostia range, is showing 

 a disposition to push things. 



A noteworthy feature on the fine 

 grounds near Gude Bros.' range is a fine 

 residence being erected for Adolphus 

 Gude, the senior partner. A. F. 



S. C. Briggs' place at Mount Pleasant 

 is worth going to see. Mr. Briggs is a 

 man who wants nothing but the best and 

 his greenhouses show it in construction as 

 well as productiveness. Here the new as 

 well as the best standard varieties of 

 carnations are grown to perfection and 

 the roses are equally good. The Amer- 

 ican Beauties are fine and Killarney, 

 Chatenay, Eichmond, Wellesley, Safrano, 

 Maid, Bride and Liberty are also grown. 

 The palms and ferns are in a healthy 

 condition and violets are coming into 

 bloom. Mr. Briggs is an enthusiastic 

 hybridizer and there are a lot of seedling 

 roses and carnations, also geraniums, 

 some of which look promising. Besides 

 flowers, lettuce and tomatoes are grown. 

 Carl Anderson is in charge and shows his 

 ability in keeping the place in good 

 order. ^^ 



Marietta, 0.— Charles Dudley, of 

 Parkersburg, while in this city last week 

 stated that he intends to have a chrys- 

 anthemum show with 10,000 blooms.
