The Florists' Review 



August 20, 1914. 



NEW SWEET PEA 



MONROVIA 



For several years this has been the best seller 

 on the Los Angeles and otber local markets, 

 and I have decided to offer it to the trade as 

 long as the stock lasts at 



98.00 par ounce. 



Monrovia begins to flower when only about one 

 foot high and continues to bloom prof usely until 

 it reaches 8 feet high outdoors. It will make a 

 splendid greenhouse variety, as the buds do not 

 drop under any conditions. The color is a deep 

 purple outside, inside heliotrope, and it is un- 

 auestionably the finest wioter-blooming pnrple 

 in existence. The seed has been carefully re- 

 selected from large pods only. It was gathered 

 in April and May in the foothill section, and 

 is consequently mature and of high germinating 

 power. It is an exceptionally stout grower and 

 throws long stemmed flowers all through the 

 season, four to six flowers to the stem. This 

 offer will be withdrawn as soon as present stock 

 is exhausted.

new plants were in this eollection. 

 They are for the most part unkoown 

 to us on this continent, but judging 

 from their appearance, many of them 

 will be well adapted to the climatic 

 conditions of California, and they are 

 certainly a fine looking lot of shrubs. 



Miss Josie L. Robbie, of Chi(?o, has 

 been spending a few days in San 

 Francisco, visiting nurseries and sight- 

 seeing at the exposition. Miss Robbie 

 is well known in the trade as one of 

 the best-informed women florists in the 

 state 



Wednesday, August 12, H. Plath, P. 

 Ferrari and nephew, and D. MacRorie 

 departed for Boston to attend the S. 

 A. F. convention. These gentlemen 

 had with them the official invitation to 

 San Francisco for the S. A. F. con- 

 vention in 1915. 



The American Florist has just com- 

 pleted the construction of a tile floor 

 in the window and has renovated the 

 store in general. It presents a clean 

 and attractive appearance, and, accord- 

 ing to C. A. Stoppenbeck, is fully 

 equipped for a big winter season. 



The Art Floral Co., which now has 

 Julius Eppstein as one of the man- 

 agers, has been displaying attractive 

 windows during the last week. Huge 

 baskets of Lilium rubrum in one win- 

 dow and an effective arrangement of 

 dahlias in the other attracted the at- 

 tention of many passers-by Wednesday, 

 August 12. 



Hogan, Kooyman & Co. are showing 

 a fine lot of asters. Mr. Kooyman re- 

 ports the shipping business quite ac- 

 tive. He has received a consignment 

 of over 1,000,000 freesia bulbs, which 

 he is featuring as a specialty. 



Gardner A. Daily, landscape engineer, 

 has just returned from an outing in 

 the southern part of the state. Mr. 

 Daily's home is at Long Beach, where 

 he spent a good part of his time.

The Market. 



Market conditions remain practically 

 unchanged. Asters, which, as a result 

 of the extremely hot weather, were 

 rather smaller than is usual for Spo- 

 kane, are now improving in quality. 

 Gladioli are coming in plentifully and 

 are of good quality. Fine stock may 

 be had for $2 to $3 per hundred. Car- 

 nations are not much in demand, though 

 the quality generally is fair. Business 

 conditions are considered good and are 

 fully up to the usual expectations at 

 this season of the year. 



Various Notes. 



The Hoyt Bros. Co. is rearranging 

 the interior of the store and adding 

 more balcony space. Samuel Younkin 

 thinks that when all the improvements 

 have been finished they will have the 

 best arranged store in the northwest. 



Henry E. Reimers is one florist who 

 can safely be said to be making money 

 this summer. His ice cream and soda 

 fountain business, maintained in con- 

 junction with his retail store, gives 

 him a good income during what would 

 otherwise be a dull time. 



Paul Winkler has left the employ of 

 A. ,T. Burt, returning to his former 

 employers in Oklahoma. 



The Spokane Florist Co. will open a 

 branch store in the new Hotel Daven- 

 port, the two-million-and-a-half hotel 



nams in flats
