The Weekly Rorists' Review* 



V' 



Januaby 14, 1909. 



Cyclamen Gigahieuih 



Sturdy plants, once traneplanted and ready to go into 3-inch pots. ThiB is as fine a strain as 

 can be found in the country — the result of buying the best ' seed we could find and eight years of 

 careful selection of vigorous plants as seed bearers. 



We recommend these especially to western growers who need strong young plants for next 

 Christmas. 



Separate colors, pink, red, white and white with carmine eye. 



$4.00 per lOO; $30.00 per lOOO. 



Cash with order or satisfactory references before opening account.

COLUMBUS. OHIO. 



The Market 



Trade has been brisk for the last 

 week or so, as there have been a great 

 many receptions and dances, and the 

 numerous debutantes in the last two 

 weeks have aided much in giving the 

 florists plenty to do. On several oc- 

 casions the decorations were elaborate, 

 and the call for fancy grade stock has 

 therefore been strong since Christmas. 

 There has been a good sprinkling of fu- 

 neral work, too. 



The Killarney rose is coming into 

 favor more and more and promises to be 

 a good rival of the old favorite. Brides- 

 maid. Violets, sweet peas, valley and, in 

 fact, all fancy stock have been at a 

 premium for the last week.

The decoration for the inauguration 

 of Governor Harmon was quite elabor- 

 ate, both at the State House and at 

 Memorial hall, where the ball was held. 

 This was one of the biggest events in 

 years, as there seemed to be unusual en- 

 thusiasm shown. The whole city was 

 decqrated with flags, bunting, etc., and 

 made a beautiful sight, especially the 

 electric arches, on which many flags were 

 displayed. 



The city of Columbus will be called 

 the Arch City in the future, as the elec- 

 tric arches originated in Columbus some 

 years ago and have proven such a good 

 advertisement for the city that the North 

 Side Board of Trade extended the arches 

 several squares farther north some 

 months ago, and now they are to run 

 east and west on Broad street. So it 

 can well be called the Arch City, with 

 several miles of electric arches. 



There has been no meeting of the 

 Florists' Club since the holidays, as 

 everybody has been too busy. 



The Munk Floral Co. reports that 

 stock is cleaned up daily and a great 

 deal more could be sold. 



E. Metzmaier had hard work on sev- 

 eral occasions to get enough stock for 

 orders. 



The Franklin Park Floral Co. reports 

 heavy business in decorating, etc. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has 

 leased a big portion of the store of the 

 C. T. Phillips Wall Paper Co., 44 North 

 High street, and this will give them 

 plenty of room for their increased busi- 

 ness, which outgrew their old quarters at 

 47 North High street. 



Robert Schenck was in the city last 

 week. J. M.
