The Weekly Florists' Review* 



J«Lt 1, 1909. 



LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market 



Business conditions have not changed 

 much since last week's report. Boses 

 are plentiful, but are beginning to show 

 the effects of the warm weather. Car- 

 nations are arriving in large quantities 

 and some of them are of good quality, 

 considering the season, but the demand 

 for good stock is limited. Sweet peas 

 are becoming more plentiful and copse- 

 quently the prices are lowering. Gladioli 

 are in fairly good supply and demand; 

 the quality was never better here. Lilies 

 are of fairly good quality, but are rather 

 scarce at present. There is a good de- 

 mand for green goods, such as smilax, 

 fern leaves and asparagus. 



We are now having some extremely 

 warm weather and plenty of rain — in 

 fact, too much of it. 



Various Notes. 



Anderson & White have been quite 

 busy of late, with decorations, parties, 

 etc. 



William Bell says weddings are about 

 over and business is now falling back 

 with him. He is cutting some snap- 

 dragons of good quality at his green- 

 houses. 



Plenty of stock is being cut at the 

 J. A. KeUer estate. This firm has some 

 excellent gladioli. 



Albert Eeichspfarr, of the Richmond 

 Greenhouses, Richmond, Ky., was a re- 

 cent visitor here, calling on the boys at 

 the J. A. Keller estate and on Lucien 

 Le Clere at the South Broadway Green- 

 houses. Mr. Reichspfarr reports a good 

 spring business at his place. He is a 

 heavy buyer from this market. 



Blue Grass. 



NEEDHAM, MASS. 



At the nursery of W. A. Gates, on 

 Webster street, there has been a splendid 

 blooming season for peonies. A large 

 number of cut blooms were sent to Bos- 

 ton for sale. The Gates stock is that 

 formerly held by the well-known James 

 Hyde, of Newton, a peony fancier. The 

 latter was the first mayor of Newton. 

 Mr. Hyde and his father before him 

 made a specialty of peonies. Mr. Gates 

 is the successor of Mr. Hyde and the 

 Newton Cemetery Association in the 

 nursery line and represents their former 

 interests. 



New Milford, Conn. — Jos. E. Cornell 

 & Co., the L»anbury florists, have closed 

 their branch at this place. Fred Hoyt 

 continues to do a flourishing business 

 here, with his greenhouses on Town Hill.
