The Weekly Florists^ Review- 



27 



TABLE OR WINDOW FLOWER BASKETS 



A stunning effect is produced by filling these 

 baskets, which have a pan lining, with cut 

 flowers. 



Their artistic shape permits their use as a 

 beautiful decoration for window, store or table. 



As an Easter remembrance, their worth is 

 unsurpassed. 



Made of rattan and finished with Blue An- 

 tique. 



For an additional charge of 50c each they 

 can be ordered in that exquisite White En- 

 amel, edged with gold. 



Instead of using a glass vase for cut flowers, 

 use one of these No. 2914 Baskets ; they are 

 admirably suited for this purpose. 



Style No. 2915 is an excellent basket for 

 Easter plant arrangement.

Mpntfon The Review when vou write 



Otto Sander had one of the most 

 attractive Valentine window displays 

 in the downtown district. He says the 

 demand for violets was the largest he 

 ever has experienced. 



Grimm & Gorly, the Paris Floral Co., 

 Alex Siegel and the Eiessen Floral Co., 

 each says that this year Valentine busi- 

 ness was double that of last year and 

 that violets had the call over any other 

 flower. 



K. J. Windier, on South Grand ave- 

 nue, says he disposed of 10,000 violets 

 on Valentine orders and that this day 

 is becoming better for the florists each 

 year. 



George Windier, the Delore avenue 

 florist, will be in shape with an extra 

 fine lot of blooming plants for the 

 Easter trade. Mr. Windier will lead a 



discussion on Easter plants at the 

 March meeting of the Florists' Club. 



Wm. Bouche, consulting landscape 

 architect at University City and Park 

 View Place, says that he has a great 

 deal of work ahead, which will begin as 

 soon as the weather opens. Nearly all 

 the California privet will have to be 

 replanted, as the severe winter killed 

 them. 



Frank Weber, E. W. Guy and W. C. 

 Young, trustees of the Florists' Club, 

 will meet this week and make arrange- 

 ments for the club's rose and carna- 

 tion exhibition, to be held in conjunc- 

 tion with the club's meeting Thursday 

 afternoon, March 14. 



The large refrigerator in the cut 

 flower department of C. A. Kuehn's 

 store, that the workmen have been in- 



stalling for the last two weeks, is now 

 complete and is one of the largest in 

 the city. 



A. S. Halstead, president of the St. 

 Clair Floral Co., Belleville, spent Sat- 

 urday, February 17, in the city. Mr. 

 Halstead has fully recovered from his 

 recent illness and reports that he is 

 grandfather to a little girl, born to his 

 daughter, Mrs. Stoval, at Cincinnati, 

 where Mrs. Halstead is visiting. 



It was estimated that the four whole- 

 salers combined disposed of 125,000 vio- 

 lets for Valentine 's day. The best 

 brought $7.50 per thousand, while 

 others ranged from $4 to $6. It surely 

 was a great violet day for the local 

 florists.

 & Sons, New York. J. J. B.
