The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



JrLr 11, 1007. 



V 



BALTIMOHE. 



The Market 



The retail trade last week was not 

 rushing and orders could be taken care of 

 without difficulty. However, some fine 

 design work was disposed of. For the 

 balance of the summer the florists will 

 depend on funeral work arid odds and 

 ends. 



The growers have been up against it 

 for the past few weeks and some are 

 seeking the city markets, trying to dis- 

 pose of their cut flowers. The reason for 

 the glut is possibly the cold weather in 

 June, for when the change of weather 

 took place the general run of outdoor 

 stock was all in bloom at one time. 



Roses are selling well, but at low 

 prices. Carnations are still abundant 

 and fine considering the weather. Sweet 

 peas are a glut on the market and can 

 be had at almost any price. Greens of 

 all kinds are enough to meet the de- 

 mand. 



Qtib Meeting. 



The last meeting of the Gardeners' 

 and Florists' Club was held Monday eve- 

 ning, July 8, with President F. C. Bauer 

 in the chair. Only sixteen members were 

 present and little business was transacted. 

 John Severon, who is employed at the 

 Fernery greenhouses, was elected a mem- 

 ber. The secretary read a letter from 

 R. Vincent, Jr., stating that he will give 

 the club another talk on the labor ques- 

 tion, for which the club will later set a 

 date. 



There will be only one meeting in Aug- 

 ust, the second Monday. 



Bowling follows most of the club meet- 

 ings. 



Various Notes.

 new greenhouse 30x200 near the Belair 

 road for carnations and asparagus. At 

 present there are ten men employed.

 ton, is erecting another house 35x100 and

 scale.

 sition of market master in Lexington 

 market, Mr, Patterson is the only flo- 

 rist who ever held such a position.

 a number of pink rambler roses on the 

 market last week and they sold well,
