The Florists' Review 



97 



■^Prepare for Easter 



It is time to get busy, for Easter is near. 

 The birds are singing, to bring us good cheer; 

 And this is the message that sweetens their song— 

 That Aschmann has plants for which buyers long; 

 Azaleas, cohered with blossoms; Bulbs, radiant and sweet; 



Araucaria.s, perfect; Palms, stately and neat: 

 Ferns, sturdy and green; Lilies, gleaming and bright; 

 The stock is complete, the prices are right. 

 There's no time to be lost, wise florists all hurry 

 To buy up the best, and save money and worry.
