The Weekly Florists' Review* 



March 3, 1910. 



orchids are now arriving in greater va- 

 riety. Lilies are down to 6 cents and ' 

 only the long-stemmed command this fig- 

 ure; 4 cents buys them in large quan- 

 tities. Freesias, tulips and daffodils over- 

 load the market. Of spring flowers there 

 is an abundance. Flowering shrubs are 

 in all the retail windows. Crimson Eam- 

 bler roses in pots are already abundant. 



y arioitt Notes. 



The rose show is only two weeks dis- 

 tant. The exhibit at the Museum of Nat- 

 ural History promises to exceed any 

 display ever seen in New York. The 

 silver cup given by Moore, Hentz & Nash 

 will bring out one of the most novel 

 exhibits. The banquet will be a great 

 success. Chairman Sheridan reports many 

 tables spoken for and preparations will 

 be made to accommodate 400. The fol- 

 lowing have been appointed the reception 

 committee; P. O'Mara, chairman; F. 

 H. Traendly, A. T. Boddington, Harry 

 Turner, C. B. Weathered, W. A. Manda, 

 F. L. Atkins, W. H. Siebrecht, Jr., A. S. 

 Burns, John I. Kaynor, J. Austin Shaw, 

 E. Dailledouze, John Birnie, C. A. Small, 

 W. J. Stewart, W. E. Marshall, H. O.

 opening of the auction season Tuesday, 

 March 15. Evergreens and roses have al- 

 ready arrived at Elliott's for the initial 

 sale. 



The greenhouse men are getting busy 

 all over the east. From present contracts 

 and indications the coming season will 

 break all records for increase of glass 

 area and add immensely to the problem 

 of the wholesalers another year. 



Mr. and Mrs. Le Moult contemplate a 

 trip shortly to Carlsbad, Germany. For 

 the Sullivan funeral Le Moult had the 

 largest number of funeral pieces ever 

 made for one, person in New York.

 so ill at Pittsburg during the carnation 

 convention, has fully recovered. 



The officials of the Growers' Cut 

 Flower Co. were in the city February 26 

 and all seem well pleased with the re- 

 sults of the enterprise and efficient man- 

 agement of J. J. Coan. 



B. Gretsch, 52 West Twenty-eighth 

 street, reports an encouraging growth in 

 his wholesale business since his purchase 

 of O. v. Zangen's interest. A. Tishman, 

 who has had fourteen years' experience 

 in the cut flower trade with A. L. Young, 

 Scallen and O. V. Zangen, is foreman

 Brooklyn, is selling her store. 



G. Lutz, formerly of Eockville Center, 

 is now with J. J. Foley on the Bowery.
