The Florists^ Review 



August Hi, lei i 



DEMVEB. 



The Market. 



Business continues dull iu most of 

 the flower stores. Some are occasion- 

 ally busy with funeral work, but trade 

 on the whole is quiet. Good gladioli 

 are arriving in large quantities and 

 are being used by the stores in win- 

 dow displays. Dahlias are good and 

 find a ready market. The supply of 

 asters is equal to the demand, but they 

 arc not as good as expected. 



Various Notes. 



I'red Wilke, of the Park Floral Co., 

 and Ben Boldt, Jr., went dove shooting 

 at Littleton, August 16. They had 

 good luck, returning with forty doves, 

 all the law allows for one day's 

 shooting. 



The Barteldes Seed Co. has rented a 

 store room at 821 Fifteenth street, in 

 which the firm expects to open an up- 

 tordate retail seed store about Sep- 

 tember 1. 



George C. Breakert surprised e\er\- 

 one by going to Colorado Springs Aug- 

 ust 19 and getting married. His many 

 friends in the trade offer him and his 

 bride congratulations and best wishes. 



The Boldt-Lundy Flower Shop at- 

 tracted a good deal of attention 

 August 21 and 22 with a window dis- 

 play of night-blooming cereus. These 

 plants are something of a novelty here, 

 being the only ones in Denver with 

 the exception of a few plants at the 

 city park greenhouses. R. S.
