The Florists' Review 



OCTOBBR 20, 1921 



Melby's Flower Shop enjoyed a fine 

 run of funeral work for the latter half 

 of last week, and the lighter deliveries 

 of gladioli and dahlias necessitated the 

 use of other flowers in this work. 



The Hollywood Gardens have handled 

 a nice general run of decorative orders 

 of late, and are getting, from the green- 

 houses, some of the best late asters seen 

 here this season. Koses of fine quality 

 are another big feature of the late win- 

 dow displays, fruits and foliage being 

 combined with these in the production 

 of large fancy baskets. The carnation 

 crop is coming along nicely. 



Seattle retailers have started a move- 

 ment which is expected to benefit the 

 entire trade. A committee from the as- 

 sociation, headed by David Jones, has 

 been appointed to call on the various re- 

 tailers in an effort to compile a list of 

 poor-pay or unreliable charge accounts, 

 and this list will be supplied to every 

 retailer in the city. In this way efforts 

 of this class of customers to continue se- 

 curing credit by changing dealers will 

 be defeated. 



L. W. McCoy developed a five-pointed 

 star for the celebration of the tenth an- 

 niversary of the founding of the Chinese 

 republic, using red dahlias for one point, 

 black dahlias for another, blue asters 

 for the third, yellow dahlias for the 

 fourth and white dahlias for the fifth. 

 A number of good-sized baskets were 

 also sent out, zinnias being especially 

 popular here. 



City authorities have applied for an 

 order to tear down the ruins of the 

 greenhouses formerly occupied by Ber- 

 nard and Fred Gasch. These houses 

 were destroyed by fire last spring, but 

 the framework has never been removed. 

 The ofiicials hold that there is danger of 

 the timbers falling and injuring the 

 children who play there. Some good 

 ferns are being shipped in from the 

 new Gasch greenhouses, located farther 

 out of town. 



Charles Gilmorc, until recently with 

 the Public Ijundscape Garden, in Van- 

 couver, B. C, has accepted a position 

 at the Rosaia Bros, greenhouses at 

 Thomas, wliere he succeeds Thomas V. 

 Keeling. Mr. Keeling is now with the 

 Woodland Park Floral Co. Some fine 

 Panama and War gladioli are still being 

 cut, and a good increase is noted in or- 

 chids of late. George Rosaia advises 

 that the potted cyclamens arc coming 

 along in good style, and that there will 

 be more space than ever devoted to the 

 growing of poinscttias this year. No 

 white or pink stock is being grown. An 

 increase is seen in the cut of Ward roses.
