The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



Decbmbbb 19, 1907. 



DETROIT. . - 



The Market* 



One more issue of the Review and 

 Christmas will be a thing of the past 

 for another year. Present indications 

 all point to a fair Christmas business. 

 It lies to a large extent with the mer- 

 chants themselves whether they get what 

 business there is or not. Those who put 

 on all the extra war paint they can will 

 get the orders, while the fellow" who 

 goes along with the idea that there 

 simply will be nothing doing is not likely 

 to be disappointed. A great deal will 

 also depend on the growers. If the 

 price of cut flowers is reasonable, all 

 well and good, but if some of the pres- 

 ent quotations really go into effect many 

 people will buy candy instead of flowers. 



All of the good stock remains well 

 cleaned up from day to day. There has 

 been no noticeable change in prices since 

 the last report. 



Holly and ground pine are in good 

 supply; the former sells for from $4 

 to $4.50 per case. 



Various Notes. 



Hubert Pierce, of the Detroit Cut 

 Flower Supply House, has just returned 

 from a trip through Michigan. In his 

 opinion there will be a good supply of 

 carnations in this section for the holi- 

 days. 



J. F. Sullivan disposed of a large 

 number of Iferns last week by filling the 

 window with them and displaying a card 

 bearing the words, "Special Sale of 

 Ferns." The price was not reduced on 

 the better grade of plants. 



B. Schroeter, Jr., who is attending the 

 University of Michigan, is at home for 

 the holidays. He will help out at the 

 greenhouses during the rush. 



The Michigan Cut Flower Exchange 

 has had exceptionally good luck with its 

 cold storage ferns. The first lot was 

 taken out last week and there were 

 twenty-six good ferns in each bunch. 



Nothing has as yet come of the suit 

 against George Leadly by Mrs. Allen 

 P. Cox. The case was again postponed 

 last week. 



Schroeter had the decorations at the 

 Hotel Ponchartrain for the New Eng- 

 land Society. Green and red were the 

 colors. 



Philip Breitmeyer made bis annual 

 Christmas trip to New York, taking his 

 son Harry along. Harry Breitmeyer is 

 already one of the regulars in the store.
