The Weekly Rorists' Review. 



August 8, 1907.

KANSAS QTY. > ^ 



The Market 



Good stock is scarce, sweet peas are 

 about gone, carnations are scarce and 

 of poor quality. Roses are small and off 

 in color. Some fine gladioli are to be 

 seen. Snapdragon is quite plentiful 

 and goes a good ways in helping out on 

 funeral work. Asters are becoming 

 more plentiful and are selling at from 

 $1 to $2 per hundred. Most of the down- 

 town florists are complaining of dull 

 business; only funeral work to help 

 break the quiet spells. Some pretty work 

 was to be seen at a large funeral last 

 week. One design, a wreath, was made 

 solid of double white hollyhocks and 

 Lilium auratum, which was a credit to 

 the artist. 



Various Notes. 



K. S. Brown & Son have all of their 

 chrysanthemums planted and are grow- 

 ing them one flower to each plant. They 

 are looking flne. Tliey report that their 

 spring trade was double any previous 

 year 'a business. 



Albert Barbe is taking it easy now, 

 after a heavy spring trade. He will 

 not attend the convention this year. It 

 seems that the last year's heat was too 

 much for him. W. H. H. 



NEW ORLEANS. 



At this time of the year in New Or- 

 leans, when planting is out of season 

 and the sale of plants is limited, there 

 is a business which is booming in a live- 

 ly manner, and the scarcity of labor, 

 and also the number of places newly 

 built, makes it that much more impor- 

 tant. It is the work in the gardens. 

 Instead of the few gardeners who were 

 in the business some years ago, there 

 are hundreds now in this occupation and 

 there is a good opening for more. 



Beds of tuberose are noticed all 

 around. It has been found one of the 

 best flowers to fill up orders for white 

 cut flowers during the summer. 



R. Lockerbie, who had the contract 

 for leveling and keeping the neutral 

 ground of Canal street, has given it up.
