The Weekly Florists' Review* 



JULV 2«, 1911. 



PACIFIC COAST. 



Lob Angeles, Cal. — The business of 

 the Ingleside Floral Co. was recently 

 incorporated, with a capital stock of 

 $20,000. The directors are H. D. Eoss, 

 A. W. Ross and F. Edward Gray. 



PASADENA, CAL. 



While the National Sweet Pea So- 

 ciety was holding its annual exhibition 

 at Philadelphia, sweet pea enthusiasts 

 were getting busy here as well. Among 

 the displays at the rooms of the Board 

 of Trade was a large collection of sweet 

 peas from the Floradale Farm of W. 

 Atlee Burpee & Co., at Lompoc, where 

 Edwin Lonsdale is resident manager. 

 The flowers were sent in by express 

 and later Mr. Lonsdale received the 

 following acknowledgment from Mr, 

 liarnhart: "The sweet peas arrived in 

 perfect condition. I had a bevy of 

 pretty girls unpack them and arrange 

 them, in a way that only girls can. 

 Lonsdale! They were great, and no 

 mistake. The crowds of people who 

 visited the show took down every name 

 and absorbed the firm's thirty-fifth an- 

 niversary supplement in no time; not 

 nearly enough of them were sent." 

 Had the show been made two weeks 

 later, many more varieties could have 

 been sent, for the season was such that 

 planting on the Burpee farm was much 

 later than last year. 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



Cold winds and plenty of fog are 

 the prevalent conditions in this locality 

 at present, in pleasant contrast with 

 the situation of our eastern friends. In 

 addition, we have the National Asso- 

 ciation of Teachers here in convention, 

 but they have not helped trade, as far 

 as we are able to discover up to this 

 time. Everything in the flower line 

 is as cheap as it is possible for it to 

 be and the quality of stock is much 

 better than what we generally have at 

 this time. The last few weeks of cool 

 weather have had the effect of bringing 

 out the good points that are not always 

 in eridence in the summer time. 



Funeral orders up to within the last 

 two weeks had been rather plentiful, 

 but since that time they have greatly 

 decreased and white flowers are no 

 more in demand than anything else. 

 Gladioli, dahlias, coreopsis, sweet peas, 

 ^aillardias and everything else that is 

 seasonable are brought into town in 

 about ten times the quantity for which 

 there is any sale and the street huck- 

 sters get the benefit. Out-of-town ship- 

 ments are also moving slowly and things 

 in general are about as quiet as it is 

 possible for them to be.
