The Florists' Review 



Jandabi 16, 1913. 



Eight Pages of Retailers' Cards 



This department for the cards of Leading Retail Florists — those florists who have the 

 facilities for filling the orders sent them by other florists — has made possible the recent rapid 

 development of this branch of the business, a branch of the trade now established for all time and 

 so helpful that its volume will keep on increasing for many years. 



Are you sending and receiving your share of these orders? You can send your share (and 

 make 20 per cent profit without effort) if you let your customers know you can perform this service 

 for them. To receive your share — well, The Review's department for Retailers* cards remains the 

 one way of getting prompt action on the order in hand. 



To be represented costs only 70 cents per week on a yearly order. This is for one-inch space. 

 Other spaces in proportion. 



Why not send your order today — ^now — before you forget it?

The weather continues to be extraor- 

 dinarily mild for January, with much 

 dark, rainy weather. Such conditions 

 are not the best for the florists' busi- 

 ness, but flowers continue to clean up 

 remarkably well. The hot weather is 

 not liked by the rose growers. Flow- 

 ers arriving are lacking in substance 

 and consequently in keeping qualities. 

 Mme. Eussell and Beauty share the 

 leading position, the first named being 

 in particular demand for high class 

 functions. For all short-stemmed roses 

 the demand is strong and these have 

 advanced in price, but the better grade 

 flowers are not moving so well, nor 

 are prices as they should be. The 

 leading call now is for funeral work, 

 and the short-stemmed flowers are used 

 in this way. 



Carnations are still in undersupply 

 and prices are holding up well. The 

 demand for whites has improved, but 

 colored varieties also move well. Vio- 

 lets hold about the same as a week 

 ago. Sweet peas are selling better and 

 valley has been meeting with an excel- 

 lent sale. Dutch bulbous stock is 

 steadily increasing in quantity, but no 

 glut is in sight. In addition to tulips 

 and narcissi, quite a few hyacinths are 

 also coming in. 



Lilies and callas are each in good 

 supply and sell well. In the way of 

 miscellaneous flowers, marguerites are 

 more plentiful and in good demand. 

 Snapdragons sell quickly, also forget- 

 me-nots. Other flowers include coreop- 

 sis, calendula, dimorphotheca, wall- 

 flower, English primroses and bache- 

 lor's buttons. Cattleyas are inclined
