The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



Jdnb 17, 1009. 



COLUMBUS, OHIO. 



The Market. 



Trade has been holding up well. There 

 /las been a brisk demand for bedding 

 plants ever since Decoration day, as there 

 were some who did not get in on the early 

 rush. There has been a great deal of 

 funeral work lately, and that, with the 

 commencement exercises, etc., has kept 

 things moving at a good pace. 



Stock has been of rather poor quality 

 lately, and is showing the effects of the 

 hot weather. Roses have suffered most 

 and they are small compared with a few 

 weeks ago. Carnations have been coming 

 in heavily, and some days it looked as 

 though we would have a glut, but, taking 

 it all around, they have fared as well as 

 could be expected during the month of 

 outdoor roses. Sweet peas are coming in 

 now from outdoors. While there is no 

 great quantity, the quality is good. The 

 demand for valley for bridal bunches has 

 been heavy, and there are still quite a 

 number of weddings booked for June. 



Various Notes. 



The Florists' Club^was entertained by 

 the Munk Floral Co. Tuesday evening, 

 June 8, at the firm's greenhouses. There 

 were about twenty-five who braved the 

 storm we had that night, to go to the 

 gathering, and they were well repaid for 

 going, as ' ' The Munks ' ' did credit to 

 themselves in handling the crowd of vis- 

 itors and in setting before them so fine 

 a lunch. 



Sherman Stephens reports the most of 

 the planting done at Greenlawn, and he 

 is well satisfied with the spring business. 



William Graff has his place remodeled 

 and everything is finished in white. He 

 has put in a shallow ice-box in place of 

 the large one he had, which adds greatly 

 to the appearance of the room. 



E. Metzmaier reports everything sold 

 out clean, with hardly enough left for 

 stock. 



The Franklin Park Floral Co. reports 

 an excellent business this spring. 



Mrs. E. M. Krauss has given up her 

 store for the summer. As her lease had 

 run out, she decided to wait till fall be- 

 fore looking for a new location. J. M. 



Allentown, Pa. — E. N. Kroninger, 

 whose range is located between this city 

 and Emaus, is adding two greenhouses, 

 each 50x400 feet, of Lord & Burnham 

 construction. They were to be finished 

 by June 1, but the work was much de- 

 layed by the rainy weather.

It's the Busy Season Now! 



The florist who is thinking of building a greenhouse 

 this summer, will do well to send in his order early. 

 All records for building will be broken during 1909, 

 and all the construction firms will be crowded with 

 work later on. Get your figures now and order early 

 if you do not want to be delayed. Delay means loss 

 of money, and in these days every dollar counts. 

 Send for our new 1909 catalogue — sent anywhere 

 free on request.
