DENVER. 



The Market 



The Christmas trade was better than 

 in previous years, most retailers report- 

 ing from ten to twenty-five per cent in- 

 crease over last year, the stock averaging 

 good. Prices were higher and held firm 

 to the end. Very little unexpected stock 

 came in, to cause a slump. The weather 

 was ideal, not only on Christmas day but 

 for several days previous. Just to show 

 what a fine climate Denver has, there 

 was a band concert in the City park, 

 where one could sit on the benches with- 

 out heavy wraps and enjoy the music. 



There was, of course, a decided scarc- 

 ity in red flowers of all kinds. The 

 fancy grades of carnations were $8 per 

 hundred and retailed readily at $2 and 

 $2.50 per dozen; none were less than $4 

 wholesale. 



Beauties sold, well and the supply was 

 not heavy. The large stores sold out 

 early at $20 per dozen. Brides and 

 Maids also sold well. Maids being most 

 called for, as well as Chatenay. The vio- 

 let market was strong, quality good, the 

 wholesale price $2 per hundred and the 

 retail $4. Only one store had orchids 

 and they sold well. 



The quantity of flowering plants sold 

 was enormous, and to these must be 

 added a moderate number of palms and 

 ferns. Azaleas were almost as popular 

 as at Easter and sold well. Lorraine be- 

 gonias were fine and perhaps more of 

 these were sold than of any other plant. 

 Cyclamens were also in good demand, but 

 as a rule no one had what might be 

 called first-class stock. Poinsettias sold 

 well, both cut and in growing form. 

 Nice pans of these plants were largely 

 used as table centerpieces. 



Among the novelties, the Park Floral 

 Co. had Skimmia Japonica side by side 

 with Ardisia crenulata. They were 

 rather high in price in comparison with 

 other stock, but sold well. 



Various Notes. 



The year 1907 was welcomed by soci- 

 ety with a round of entertainments call- 

 ing for the decorators' skill. The Den- 

 ver club ball last Friday evening called 

 for a large decoration. Eed and green 

 were used in the various rooms. The 

 work was done by A. H. Bush, of the 

 Daniels & Fisher Stores Co. 



The Florists' Bowling League post- 

 poned its games until after the holidays, 

 the first match to be rolled January 7. 



The Scott Floral Co. has added a fine 

 new wagon to its delivery department.
