The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



June 29, 1911. 



PACIFIC COAST. 



Aberdeen, Wash.— M. C. Louis, for- 

 merly of Chicago, is now proprietor of 

 the Aberdeen Greenhouses, in this town, 

 and recently opened a store on East 

 Heron street. 



Tacoma, Wash.— At a recent meeting 

 of the Tacoma Florists' Association an 

 able paper on dahlia culture was read 

 by E. K. Roberts, formerly superinten- 

 dent of parks in this city. 



Eugene, Ore.- R. Rae, who has been 

 conducting a flower shop on East Ninth 

 street, has purchased the store of Rug- 

 gles Bros., on the same street, and will 

 consolidate the business of the two 

 jjlaces. 



Alameda, Cal.— Simon Winkler and 

 William F. Resimius have severed their 

 connection with the firm of Gresens & 

 Werner. Henry Gresens and Carl Wer- 

 ner will remain in business together and 

 will retain the Park street store, while 

 Messrs. Winkler and Resimius will con- 

 duct the business at 1419 Bay street. 



. Spokane, Wash.— The Inland Nursery 

 & Floral Co. has completed its new 

 range of greenho^ises at Washington 

 street and Madison avenue, at a cost 

 of $30,000. The new structures include 

 a large concrete office building. The 

 business of this company was founded 

 eight years ago. by H. C. and E. L. 

 Rice and J. H. Mumm. 



• Los Angeles, Cal.— It is said that 

 Kanier Duinker, from Boskoop, Hol- 

 land, is establishing a business here in 

 the growing of the azalea-rhododendron. 

 He is reported to have brought with 

 him, from the University of Boskoop, a 

 special variety of the flower, which is 

 particularly well adapted for the Cali- 

 fornia soil and climate and may be 

 grown here to great commercial advan- 

 tage. 



PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



Business is down to summer level; 

 there is practically nothing doing ex- 

 cept an occasional funeral or wedding 

 to break the monotony. With the pass- 

 ing of the fair graduates, there is noth- 

 ing special to look forward to, except 

 vacations, which are the next in line 

 on the calendar. 



Carnations, roses and sweet peas are 

 in abundance, and the first Jiamed can 

 be bought as low as $1 per hundred; 

 of course the prices on the better 

 grades are firmer. Delphiniums, gail- 

 lardias, coreopsis and campanulas serve 

 their i)urpose for decorative work. 



Peonies are on their last legs; only 

 a few more days of sunshine and they 

 will be gone. Lilium auratum is being 

 displayed in various windows. 



Various Notes. 



Activity in greenhouse construction 

 is noticeable on all sides, and only the 

 best types and materials are consid- 

 ered. The rapid growth of the city 

 makes it expedient for the growers to 

 build farther out, where more spaceman 

 be secured at a nominal cost. 



Through the efforts of J-. B. Pilking- 

 ton, the American- Association of Nur- 

 serymen will be invited to Portland for 

 1913, in conjunction with the Pacific 



Cycas Circinalfs Stems.
