The Florists' Review 



August 27, 1914. 



PITTSBUBOH. 



The Market. 



Business is decidedly quiet, more so 

 than it has been at any time this 



^ month. The retail department literally 

 is "closed for repairs." The one sav- 

 ing fact is the county fair faker busi- 

 ness, which has developed into a good 



'^ cut flower outlet. Beauties and teas 

 are all fine. Carnations are seen only 

 occasionally. Asters of all grades are 

 plentiful. Choice, fancy varieties of 

 gladioli can be had at one's own price. 

 Lilies are moving at fair prices. Eub- 

 ruras and valley are abundant. Dendro- 

 bium formosum is offered in quantity. 



Vajious Notes. 



The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. is 

 busy shipping carnation plants from 

 the field. This is the first season this 

 (rompany has made special preparation 

 to supply the^ trade. 



Albert Lorch, of Allison Park, has 

 his. houses about all planted and says 

 his carnations look fine and should pro- 

 duce good stock. 



John Wyland is busy planting car- 

 nations and adding improvements. 

 Special mention should be made of the 

 beautiful plantings of flowers about his 

 home and Lake Viola. "Uncle John" 

 Wyland loves flowers and he shows it. 



Henry Menschke, of Castle Shannon, 

 is in the midst of heavy work. Three 

 houses are being completed, a new 

 heating plant is well under way and a 

 refrigeration plant is being considered. 

 The product of this range is sent to 

 the Ludwig Floral Co., in the north 

 side. 



P. S. Randolph & Sons are finishing 

 their new addition of plant houses. 



A carload of Pittsburgh convention- 

 ites is already predicted for the 1915 

 convention at San Francisco. 



Visitors were: E. Hichle, manager 

 for J. W. Dudley & Son, Parkersburg, 

 W. Va., who stopped over on his way 

 home from the convention at Boston; 

 J. W. Furrow, of Furrow & Co., Guth- 

 rie, Okla., who spent a few days with 

 our prominent growers, and Miss Flor- 

 ence Nies, with Miss M. Schneider, of 

 .Tohnstown, Pa. 



Edward Ashcroft and William CoUi- 

 gan are again on duty after two weeks' 

 vacationing. T. P. L.
