The Rorists' Review 



Mabch 1\*. 1914. 



contained twenty and thirty blooms, 

 which were pronounced by everyone 

 the largest and most perfect ever seen. 

 Another interesting exhibit was a speci- 

 men plant of Boston fern, which was 

 exhibited by H. Theuergarten, for 

 which he was awarded 90 points. 



Harry Spencer and J. A. Schillig 

 were admitted to the society as new 

 men^bers. 



' Various Notes. 



The activity in the retail business is 

 in evidence in the opening of three new 

 stores in San Francisco. Among them 

 is the establishment of H. Lavazelle, 

 who has fitted up a small place in the 

 Hotel Stewart. 



The reestablishment of the Francis 

 Floral Depot in a new location on 

 Powell and Sutter streets has been 

 completed. Mr. Schlotzhauer has been 

 known to the trade of San Francisco 

 for the last twenty-five years and his 

 skill and dexterity as a decorator have 

 given him a place among our leading 

 florists. His shop is an attractive one 

 and located in an excellent business 

 district. 



Albert O. Stein has completed the 

 entire remodeling of his quarters in 

 Sutter street and now boasts of the 

 finest flower shop in San Francisco. 

 Mr. Stein has a frontage of over 

 seventy-five feet in plate glass. Mr. 

 Stein's originality is everywhere in 

 evidence. He has dispensed with the 

 old-fashioned idea of white enamel 

 trimmings, and there are no counters 

 visible. On one side of the spacious 

 floor is a fountain of Pompeian model 

 ordered from Europe. Valuable Per- 

 sian rugs are artistically laid on a 

 gray imitation tile floor. Up to the 

 time that Mr. Stein opened his shop 

 our downtown establishments have been 

 considered the highest grade stores, 

 but it must be admitted by everyone 

 that there is nothing in San Francisco 

 to compare with the rich and soothing 

 effect that Mr. Stein has obtained 

 through his artistic ingenuitv.

The Market. 



Usually for a month or so preceding 

 Easter business is quiet in the flower 

 trade of this city, but it seems as if it 

 is quieter than ever this year. The 

 last two weeks have been depressing in 

 the extreme. Stock of all kinds is in 

 oversupply and carnations are a big 

 glut. Of course prices are slashed. This 

 condition is likely to continue until the 

 cucumbers are all planted. If any 

 grower of Holland bulbs has made any 

 money out of them this year he has 

 been fortunate indeed. Many hundreds 

 of the bulbs were blind in some orders, 

 and with flowers selling little in ad- 

 vance of the price of the bulbs, one 

 has to figure considerably to see where 

 the profit is. The outdoor narcissi are 

 coming in and bringing nearly as good 

 prices as forced stock has brought. 

 Koses are arriving in good shape from 

 the south. Hardly any local stock is 

 offered. The sale for pansies, daisies 

 and such planting stock has begun early 

 this year on account of the phenome- 

 nally advanced season. Good azaleas aire 

 selling well, but other pot plants move 

 slowly. 



The condition of the nursery trade 

 here is shown by the frequent Adver- 

 tisements of cheap sales. The trouble
