The Florists^ Review

MAS-ART BASKET WORKS, Inc., 2001 East 14th St., Oakland, Cal. 



for several weeks. Some stores are 

 using them in preference to chrysanthe- 

 mums, which, for the most part, are 

 shipped in from California. The latter 

 prove quite costly after shipping ex- 

 pense is added to the invoice cost and 

 some retailers cannot see any profit in 

 them. The varieties arriving at pres- 

 ent are William Turner, white and pink 

 Chieftain and BonnafEon. Some locally 

 grown stock of Chrysolora and Crystal 

 Gem is coming in and other varieties are 

 promised shortly. 



Orchids continue to be scarce and the 

 few arriving are quickly taken. Oregon 

 violets are obtainable in limited quanti- 

 ties. Lily of the valley, Cecile Brunner 

 roses and bouvardia constitute other 

 material suitable for corsage work. 



Various Notes. 



A visit to the range of the Wilson- 

 Crout-Gehr Co. reveals the fact that 

 this firm has a promising lot of cycla- 

 mens and poinsettias coming along for 

 holiday sales. Mr. Wilson is at present 

 away on a trip to his old home in In- 

 diana and, before returning, will visit 

 the large greenhouses at Richmond and 

 Springfield. 



Rapid progress is being made with the 

 new office and service building being 

 erected by J. B. Pilkington on his newly 

 acquired property, at Second and Sal- 

 mon streets. Sufficient space is being 

 left for a city nursery yard, where a 

 variety of ornamental stock will always 

 be on display. 



A venison dinner at the Multnomah 

 hotel, followed by a dance, was an event 

 of last week attended by a good num- 

 ber of florists of this city. Leo Weide- 

 man provided the venison, which he ob- 

 tained on a successful hunting trip in 

 southern Oregon. 



The new rose-pink carnation pro- 

 duced by Weideman Bros, has been 

 named after the chief executive of our 

 state, Governor Olcott. The new carna- 

 tion is a sport from Enchantress Su- 

 preme and is proving to be a ready seller 

 in the retail stores. 



Martin Reukaiif, of H. Rayersdorfcr 

 & Co., IMiiladelpliia. Pa., called on the 

 trade last week, while Earl Alilrich, of 

 M. Rice Co., Pliiladcli)liia, Pa., came in 

 from an extended trip which covered 

 all the Pacific coast and Rocky mountain 

 states.
