The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



May 2, 1907. 



DENVER. 



The Market* 



There has been little change in market 

 conditions the last two or three weeks. 

 Stock is fairly plentiful, especially roses 

 and carnations, the demand being good, 

 although the storm of last week may have 

 slackened it a trifle. Little salable stock 

 is left on hand. The quality in some 

 cases is a little bit off. 



Carnations, some of the growers seem 

 to think, will be coming in more heavily 

 by the end of the week, as it is good 

 stock and is bringing 2 cents and 3 cents. 

 Sweet peas are coming in more abun- 

 dantly, first-class stock with good stems 

 selling at 75 cents, wholesale. Violets 

 have seen their best days, owing to the 

 warm weather, and are small. A few 

 more days will see their finish. 



Beauties are first-class and a good de- 

 maud for them is noticeable. Growers 

 are throwing out rose plants in both 

 American Beauty and tea sections. Bride 

 and Bridesmaid are particularly fine in 

 quality, while Chatenay and Alice Roose- 

 velt hold their own in fine shape. The 

 funeral demand uses up nearly all of the 

 short stock. Pansies are also in heavy 

 demand and selling well, both blooms and 

 plants. 



Lilac is something not to be had on 

 this market and, owing to the last cold 

 spell, it is feared there will be a lack of 

 snowballs and other outdoor flowers for 

 Decoration day, most of them being 

 frost-bitten. There may be some from 

 southern localities where they were not 

 far enough advanced to be nipped when 

 the cold spell came on. 



Various Notes. 



Ben Boldt is again in possession of the 

 Mud Lake Greenhouses, Mr. Braidwood 

 having turned them back. Mr. Boldt will 

 run both the West Twenty-ninth street 

 houses and the present ones. 



E. E. Petersen and his wife have gone 

 to California for Mr. Petersen's health, 

 which has been poor. His son, Ernest, 

 will have charge of the business during 

 his absence. 



The Denver Florists' Bowling League 

 closed the season April 22, after a suc- 

 cessful run. Some good bowlers com- 

 peted and the prize money was well dis- 

 tributed. The convention team, with N. 

 A. Benson as captain, captured most of 

 the prizes, he himself getting first money 

 for high, game and second money for 

 handicap prize. Chas. Benson won first 

 prize and R. S. Mahan, of the Alpha 

 Floral Co., third prize. 



Chas. Benson is now with the Mauff 

 Greenhouses. E. S. K.
