The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Mat 12, 1910. 



KANSAS OTY, MO.

The Market. 



Roses are plentiful and are selling 

 readily at good prices! Carnations aUo 

 are plentiful and are selling well. Irises 

 are I .ng used a great deal at present 

 for centerpieces in decorations, but the 

 supply is small, considering the dejnand, 

 as the heav^ frosts spoiled a great many. 

 Some peonies are blooming in sheltered 

 yards. The supply of sweet peas is equal, 

 to this demand. 



There has been a good demand for 

 shrubbery this spring and all who handle 

 it were quite busy; some are not through 

 planting it yet. There is one shrub that 

 is extremely scarce in this market' — the 

 desmodium. The question is often 

 asked, "Why don't the nurserymen grow 

 more, since the demand is always far 

 more than, the supply?" 



Various Notes. 



The Geo. M. Kellogg Flower & Plant 

 Co. is now cutting large quantities of 

 roses. Some of their Beauties are extra 

 fine. Their carnations are better than 

 ever before and they are getting good 

 prices for them. Their retail cooler is 

 always filled with the choicest of stock. 



D. Freudenthal is now dealing in bed- 

 ding plants — a new addition to his trade. 

 "We hope he will be successful in his new 

 venture. 



C. C. Maynard, the nurseryman, says 

 he has had an excellent trade, this spring. 

 His supply yard is located at Thirty- 

 fourth and Maitt streets. 



J. Austin, at Thirty-fifth street and 

 Park avenue, says that some one is gath- 

 ering porch boxes, to be planted in his 

 name. He is anxious to find out who it 

 is. Mr. Austin has just received a large 

 lot of box trees, in all shapes and forms. 

 He says be is doing a fine business in his 

 new store. He expects to build two 

 large greenhouses this summer, to grow 

 carnations for his store. His rheuma- 

 tism is disappearing fast. 



The window of the Kock Flower Co. is 

 always handsomely decorated and is re- 

 markably pleasing to the eye. This firm 

 was quite busy last week with funeral 

 work. 



Nelson Jarrett has his wagons in the 

 market filled with good stock. He al- 

 ways has some of the best grown gera- 

 niums in the market and they- sell at 

 sight. 



R. S. Brown & Son report a heavy 

 trade for the last six weeks. On some 

 stock they are already running extremely 

 short. 



A. Barbee, the republican candidate, 

 was elected alderman for the upper house 

 in our last election. He feels justly 

 proud in being so popular as to receive 

 80 large a majority of votes. 



The W. H. Humfeld Floral Co., now 

 at Ninth street and Highland avenue, 

 will move August 1 to their new location, 

 1010 East Thirty-first street. They have 

 leased a store room at this number and 

 will fit it up as a first-class cut flower 

 shop about July 1. They vdll build 

 greenhouses to connect vfith the rear of 

 the store at once. They have also rented 

 a large piece of ground north of this 

 store, in which to plant out their summer 

 stoek, such as asters, snapdragons, 

 gladioli, dahlias, etc. Their greenhouse 

 will be built with brick walls and heated 

 by hot water. The firm name will be 

 changed to Humfeld-Orear Floral Co. 

 Leon Orear will be half owner in thb 

 new firrt.- He is a natural artist and can 

 hold his own with anyone in the west.
