The Weekly Florists' Review* 



July 13, 1911. 



PACIFIC COAST. 



PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



Business conditions are about the 

 same as previously reported. Funeral 

 work constitutes the major part of the 

 business, with a few belated weddings 

 to fill in. Stock is plentiful in all 

 varieties. Sweet peas are in profu- 

 sion. It is hard to maintain any 

 standard of prices, as some of the 

 smaller stores persist in cutting 

 prices in order to get the business. 



Carnations are holding their quality 

 well, regardless of the warm weather. 

 The rose stock has been plentiful. The 

 Maryland rose is useless here as a 

 summer rose, as it frequently gops to 

 pieces over night. New ferns are com- 

 ing into the market, displacing the 

 old crop. The storing of ferns is not 

 practiced in this section, as the 

 weather permits gathering them the 

 year around. At the greenhouses the 

 forces are busy planting the carna- 

 tion beds with new stock. 



Various Notes. 



S. E. Lundy, representing the A. L. 

 Randall Co., of Chicago, is calling on 

 the local trade. 



S. H. Forshaw, of Pendleton, Ore., 

 was in town over the Fourth. 



E. R. C. 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



The weather for the first part of 

 July has been quite cool in this neigh- 

 borhood. The thermometer has not 

 registered higher than 62 degrees, 

 though it is much warmer in the in- 

 terior towns. Consequently flowers of 

 all kinds are in splendid shape here for 

 keeping and shipping. Boses and car- 

 nations are much better than those 

 usually seen at this season of the year 

 and all sorts of outside stock show the 

 results of the cool summer breezes. 



Business is not brisk and would exist 

 in name only were it not for the wed- 

 ding orders that have been liberally 

 sprinkled around town. Funeral work 

 has not kept pace with decorations for 

 more pleasurable occasions, and much 

 light colored stock has been thrown 

 away. Gladioli and dahlias have not 

 been in as good demand as in former 

 years and it is useless to quote prices 

 on them. Orchids, valley and other 

 choice flowers hold their own fairly 

 well, but flowers of most kinds can be 

 bought for almost anything the retailer 

 chooses to allow. 



Various Notes. 



H. M. Sanborn, of Oakland, who has 

 been confined to his home for several 

 weeks by a severe injury to his foot, 

 is able to attend to ^jusiiiess again. 



The Pacific Coast Horticultural So- 

 ciety will give its second annual picnic 

 at San Anselmo, July 23. Coppa's Villa 

 has been secured for the occasion and 

 everyone is looking forward to an en- 

 joyable outing. 



H. M. Lichty, well known to the 

 trade, is here from Seattle for a short 

 visit.

 daughter, who have been in San Fran-
