The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



ShYTKMBBR 22, 1910. 



Three More Novelties 



Silver Filigree Baskets* Exquisite combinations in silvery effect, beautiful for favors or 

 any variety of choice work where a small handle basket of artistic appearance is required. These 

 baskets will be especially popular this season because fashion favors silver just now. 



Metal Dutch Figures* Quaint little conceptions, true to nature, in typical Dutch costume. 

 They come in pairs, a man and a woman, each with his and her basket, ready to hold a little bunch of 

 Howers or a fern, just the thing that will attract in your window. 



New Style imperial Chinaware* Branching combination vases, high vases, odd shaped 

 vases, all finished in the popular imperial style, giving height and variety that could not be attained 

 with the older and better known vases.

retail windows are resplendent in dahlia 

 decoration and the best varieties arc 

 now in evidence everywhere. Some of 

 the wholesalers are making the dahlia 

 this week their specialty. 



Gladioli have retired from competi- 

 tion; what few arrive sell readily at 

 2 cents, when perfect, because of their 

 scarcity, but the big shippers are 

 through. Asters, too, are shortening 

 fast, and the market is getting ready 

 for the inflow of the chrysanthemum. 

 Roses are improving and lengthening 

 rapidly, and prices will soon follow suit. 

 Carnations are rapidly coming into fa- 

 vor and in length of stem and size of 

 flower begin to look quite natural again. 



The first violets arrived September 

 l(j, and every day now will add to the 

 shipments. Quality was better than 

 expected, and the few that arrived were 

 snapped up by the big stores that are 

 striving for the record — on Fifth ave- 

 nue and Broadway. 



The best valley sold at 4 cents at the 

 beginning of the week, and lilies arc 

 holding their own. Orchids are increas- 

 ing, as also are gardenias, both having 

 larger sources of supply than ever be- 

 fore, and growing in popularity. 



The demand for green goods is light; 

 only the best smilax commands a pay- 

 ing figure. Wild smilax is arriving reg- 

 ularly, and is of excellent quality. 



American Institute Exhibition. 



The seventy-ninth fair of the Ameri- 

 can Institute opened at the Berkeley 

 Lyceum building September 20 for a 

 three days' run. There were over 400
