The Weekly Florists' Review. 



NOTEMBBB 16, 1911. 



HOLLY- HOLLY- HOLLY 



I have just returned from a two weeks' trip through the Holly eectiona of Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, and have 

 contracted for my supply for the season of 1911. I expect to have several cars of very fine, dark green, well-berried Swamp 

 Holly. I will have it packed as usual in regular size cases, 2x2x4, and guaranteed as represented. My flret car will arrive 

 in Philadelphia about December Jst. I filled all orders received last year and gave entire satisfaction and I hoj)e to do so 

 again this season. My price this year on orders received up to December 1st is $3.00 per case. After that date, at 

 market price, which I am quite sure will be higher on account of scarcity. 



HOLLT WREA.THS 



My Holly Wreatfas will be made of tfae very 

 finest selected dark (rreen Hully on 10 loch 

 hoops, and will be well-berried tlO 00, $12.60 and 

 $16 00 per 100. according to quality.

My Laurel Wreat tng will be made of the 

 brivhtest Swamp Laurel that It Is possible to 

 secure. In SO-yird lengths. Prlcp, 2^c and 3c 

 per yaid.

 extra selfcted and full of berries. Per case.

feature of the meeting was an illus- 

 trated talk by G. H. Pring, of the Bo- 

 tanical Garden, on "The Evolution of 

 the Cultivated Chrysanthemum." The 

 meeting was well attended. 



C. Young & Sons Co. had a grand 

 opening of the firm 's new branch store, 

 on Waterman avenue. For souvenirs 

 they gave away a few thousand small 

 ferns in gilded pots. This store is sure 

 to become one of the most attractive 

 places in the west end. 



The Eggeling Floral Co., for many 

 years at the northwest corner of La- 

 fayette and Grand avenues, will move 

 to the new location this week, just op- 

 posite, in a new, modern building. The 

 old stand belongs to the Shaw estate, 

 which will be laid out in lots and sold. 

 The firm's name has been changed to 

 Margaret Eggeling, Florist. 



Messrs. Steidle, Bergstermann, Brue- 

 nig, Bourdet and Tesson, who judged all 

 the exhibits at last week's flower show, 

 did their work well. All the exhibitors 

 were satisfied with the awards made. 



Wm. F, Nichol, president of the St. 

 Louis Seed Co., and A. J. Butterfield, of 

 Farmington, Mo., made applications for 

 membership in the St. Louis Florists' 

 Club. Both will make valuable mem- 

 bers. 



Fred Lautenschlager was with us last 

 week and, in company with W. J. Pil- 

 cher, visited the growers in St. Louis 

 county in the interest of the Kroeschell 

 boilers. J, J. B. 



PROVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



Considerable improvement in the 

 flower market was noticed last week, 

 brought about by the slightly cooler 

 weather, the opening of the reception 

 season, several weddings, and funeral 

 work. Mums were in good demand and 

 supply, and some choice Major Bon- 

 naffon, Maud Dean, Col. Appleton and 

 others were received and met with a 

 good call. Koses are rather plentiful 

 and of excellent quality, but the de- 

 mand has been sluggish, the mums hold- 

 ing the center. Violets are arriving in 

 good shape and carnations are coming 

 better. 



Various Notes. 



George C. Kelley was defeated for 

 membership in the general assembly 

 from Providence at the recent election. 



Joseph l^opelman was a visitor at 

 the Boston flower show last week. 



O. H. Williams was elected a member 



Costs no more, and wher*" quality is considered is 

 worth more than double.
