The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



December 17, 1908. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



The much looked for shortage in cut 

 flowers seems to be close at hand, which 

 no doubt means an advance in prices at 

 once. Carnations are moving better than 

 heretofore, with indications of better 

 prices. Boses have improved greatly in 

 quality. Beauties are still coming in 

 poorly. There are quantities of good 

 lilies, valley, stevias, Eomans, Paper 

 Whites and callas, all of which are sell- 

 ing more readily than they have been, 



A Viut to PainesvUIe. 



A jaunt to Painesville was greatly 

 enjoyed by a party of Cleveland boya 

 December 11, visiting the different places 

 in that vicinity. They called first on 

 the Storrs & Harrison Co., where they 

 were taken in hand by the ever agree- 

 able Ed George, who showed the party 

 around. Quantities of good stock were 

 in readiness for Christmas, among which 

 was a fine lot of Lorraine begonias, just 

 right for the holidays. There were also 

 some good Jerusalem cherries, peppers, 

 and an exceptionally fine lot of arau- 

 carias. A bench of ficus was in the best 

 of shape, as well as many houses of 

 young palms, which seemed to be in the 

 most healthy condition. Mr. George 

 then conducted the party to one of their 

 cold houses for nursery stock, and the 

 extent of such stock carried here goes 

 to show what an enormous quantity of 

 trees, shrubs, etc., is disposed of each 

 year by this firm. The packing depart- 

 ment is an ever busy place, as a great 

 part of their business consists of mail 

 orders. 



At C. Merkel & Son's place there are 

 some excellent Christmas plants, among 

 which were some good azaleas and potted 

 ferns. The Lorraine begonias grown at 

 this place are among the best ever seen 

 in this market. 



Carl Hagenburger has a fine lot of 

 stevia that is just ready for the holidays 

 and also great quantities of Boston 

 ferns that will be about right for spring 

 trade. A bench of Boston Market seed- 

 lings shows prospects of some good re- 

 sults. 



Various Notes. 



Smith & Fetters were unusually busy 

 last week, having had a large dinner, a 

 wedding and a funeral on the same day, 

 which consumed quantities of first-class 

 stock. 



F. W. Griffin has been showing some 

 nice windows of novelties for Christmas. 



The quality of violets received from 

 the east is of the best, but the demand 

 has been rather slow. B.
