The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



Deciuibbb 5, 1007. 



DETROIT. 



The Market. 



Thanksgiving business was good. Most 

 of the stores report their sales as be- 

 ing ahead of last year. About the 

 only flower that went begging was the 

 violet, and this is the growers' own 

 fault. They held back the violets until 

 the day before Thanksgiving, thereby 

 making it appear as if violets would 

 be scarce and scaring the retailers out 

 of taking orders. 



This market is well cleaned up at pres- 

 ent on all good stock. The chrysanthe- 

 mum season is rapidly nearing the end, 

 and the chances are that then we will 

 get funeral work with no flowers to 

 make it. The medium grade mums 

 seemed to be in the best demand last 

 week, although all the higher priced 

 stock cleaned up well. 



Boses are in good demand and are 

 bringing good prices. The stock on this 

 market is nothing to brag about, but 

 it no doubt compares favorably with 

 stock in other cities. Some good car- 

 nations are arriving daily and meet with 

 a ready sale, bringing from 2Y2 cents 

 to 3 cents. For Thanksgiving they 

 brought as much as 4 cents. To make a 

 long story short, all good stock sells 

 rapidly at a good price. Galax, leu- 

 cothoe, ferns, smilax, etc., are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



A commendable exhibit of pompons in 

 pink, yellow and white was made by 

 Fred Pantke, of Grosse Pointe, at the 

 club's show November 19. 



B. Schroeter tells us that orders for 

 Beacon, Winsor and White Enchantress 

 cuttings are coming in with every mail. 

 Many thousand cuttings are in the bench 

 and the first shipment will be made next 

 week. The stock plants at Schoeter's 

 greenhouses look healthy and strong, and 

 are good for many more cuttings. Win- 

 sor seems to be the strongest grower of 

 the trio. 



J. F. Sullivan displayed a beautiful 

 lot of extra large mums in his window 

 before Thanksgiving, and no doubt this 

 helped him to increase his sales con- 

 siderably. H. 8. 



Olean, N. Y. — Mrs. F. H. Johnson 

 says there was more business than money 

 during the last month. Besides some 

 small receptions, there were two or three 

 weddings, for which good decorations 

 were ordered. 



MoNTQOMEEY, Ala. — 'Robert W. Pat- 

 terson has added four houses, 30x200 

 feet, heated by a Kroeschell boiler. This 

 gives him a glass area of 90,000 feet. 

 His stock is in excellent shape. His car- 

 nations are the best seen in this section. 

 He is also very successful with Begonia 

 Gloire de Lorraine. Bose Kate Moulton 

 is a money maker, as grown here. A re- 

 cent purchase of fifty acres of rich, 

 loamy land will supply soil for a while.
