The Florists' Review 



87 



HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE. 



(jodfrey Aschmann, the Philadelphia 

 plantsman, at the age of 60, Is as active 

 as ever (a visit to his establishment will 

 convince you). He is a native of Switzer- 

 land, ef the right thinking, active, fiery 

 type, and, lil?e the Deutsche Kaiser, full 

 of courage and ambition. He is not afralil 

 of the combined armies of the so-called 

 florists, and he is sure he will carry the 

 field when other florists are down-hearted 

 and holding back on account of hard times 

 and afraid to invest a dollar. Godfrey 

 Aschmann has his eyes open — he watches 

 and looks into the future — buys up all the 

 good stock he can get, fills his houses with 

 the choicest and is prepared when the 

 rush comes.
