The Weekly Florists' Review. 



March 26, 1908. 



NEV BEDFORD, MASS. 



The Market 



Trade has improved a little in the last 

 week. There is a good supply of flowers 

 on hand. Carnations of good quality 

 bring 50 cents per dozen retail. One re- 

 tailer advertised 8,000 of these flowers 

 last Saturday at 20 cents per dozen retail. 

 Sweet peas bring $1 per hundred retail. 

 They are of fine quality. Violets are a 

 drug on the market. They are selling as 

 low as 50 cents per hundred retail. From 

 present indications there will not be an 

 overabundant supply of these flowers for 

 Easter. Eoses retail at $1.50 per hun- 

 dred. Bulbous stock is plentiful. Fu- 

 neral work has been heavy during the last 

 week. 



Various Notes. 



8. S. Peckham is cutting a large crop 

 of carnations. He reports a big demand 

 for cuttings of White Perfection. His 

 Winsor is looking fine. 



E. Y. Pierce is picking some nice Bos- 

 ton Market carnations. 



A. B. Hathaway is strong on bulb 

 stock, as is also E. E. Noflftz. 



Peter Murray is sending in nice Win- 

 sor carnations to E. H. Chamberlain. 



W. L. 



ANTHERICUM. 



Would you please tell me the best way 

 to start anthericum seed ? L. P. V, 



Anthericum seed is of slow germina- 

 tion. The best method is to sow the 

 seed immediately after it is ripe in either 

 a coldframe or in flats in a cold green- 

 house. Do not become nervous about the 

 seed not germinating. It will take sev- 

 eral months to show. Propagation by sto- 

 lons is the best plan for increasing stock.

Dunkirk, Ind.— Mr. and Mrs. Leon G. 

 Barbier are rejoicing over the advent of 

 a little daughter, born March 16. 



Enclosed find $2 in payment of one 

 year's subscription to the Beview. I 

 find no other paper that covers the 

 ground so thoroughly as the Eeview. — 

 W. L. Lindsay, Tillsonburg, Ont. 



OwENSBORO, Ky.— The Nanz Floral 

 Co. held its formal opening, in its new 

 store at the corner of Main and Allen 

 streets, March 14. The new place has 

 been remodeled and renovated, and is 

 much better adapted to the business than 

 the one formerly occupied. Handsome 

 display windows have been put in on 

 both the Main street and Allen street 

 sides.
