The Florists^ Review 



October 22, 1914 



were resumed October 13. The election 

 of officers resulted iu all the old staft' 

 being reelected, except that .1. J. Bon- 

 uell took the place of vice-president, 

 vacated by John Holze. An interesting 

 discussion on cooperation occupied the 

 rest of the time. 



ti rowers of Dutch bulbs have just re- 

 ceived their shi})ments for this season. 

 Wiiile possibly there are not such large 

 quantities received here this year, on 

 account of the poor prices realized for 

 the flowers in recent seasons, the bulbs 

 jare reporte<l to be much superior to the 

 ffnea received in the past. Shipments 

 of Lilium giganteum were received from 

 Jai)an last week. It seems that there is 

 a shortage in the supplj^ this season. 



Hollywood Gardens had the decora- 

 tions for the coming out of Miss Baillar- 

 geon last week. It was one of the most 

 important society events of tlie season.

 the Butler hotel has been taken over

The Market. 



The weather continues bright and 

 warm, to the disadvantage of the trade, 

 for it is a condition which induces many 

 flower buyers to gather autumn foliage 

 and wild ferns, which, together with 

 home-grown roses, cosmos or dahlias, 

 make a really presentable decoration, to 

 the total exclusion of the services of 

 the florist — a case of the good wind blow- 

 ing someone ill. Carnations are now of 

 prime quality, and though several social 

 affairs have used some of the surplus 

 stock, there is still a heavy oversupply. 

 Eoses have decreased in quantity and 

 the supply is absorbed by the market at 

 normal prices. Local-grown mums are 

 more abundant and of better quality. 

 "White Ivory, Chrysolora and Comoleta 

 are among the best local varieties shown, 

 while Early Snow, Bonnaffon and Queen 

 lead in the displays of California-grown 

 stock. Dahlias are to be seen every- 

 where and are in the height of their 

 glory. Callas and snapdragons are seen 

 in limited quantity. Asparagus is in 

 oversui)ply. 



Various Notes. 



The Floral Studio, on Alder street, 

 furnished the bouquets and table deco- 

 rations "tor the recent Baron-Fitzitatrick 

 wedding. The bouquets were of gar- 

 denias .and valley. 



Howard K. Weed has received the con- 

 tract for landscaping the Washelli cem- 

 etery, at Seattle. He has ^ust planted 

 20,000 peonies, furnished by the Capitol 

 Point Nursery, of Olympia. 



E. R. Chappell has taken a position at 

 S. G. Lubliner's store, in the Portland 

 hotel block.

 a strong effort to bring to Portland next 

 year the show of the Northwest Dahlia 

 Society.
