store, with many decorations, and at his 

 artistic store on Broadway. 



Many of the wholesalers are handling 

 choice plants for Easter. Ford Bros, have 

 their usual exhibit of giant daisies. 



Anton Schultheis is celebrating his 

 twenty-first year in plant growing, and 

 has now a model establishment, com- 

 pletely rebuilt and up-to-date. The Easter 

 demand, he says, is phenomenal. 



M. A, Bowe has a branch store and a 

 larger force than usual for the holiday. 

 He has already selected more heavily of 

 flowering plants than ever before, and 

 has planned for the biggest Easter in his 

 history. 



John King Duer is making an elabor- 

 ate Easter display in the large court at 

 the rear of his store, and has many 

 unique novelties in vases and statues in 

 his windows. 



David Clarke's Sons are celebrating 

 their sixty -first year. New York has 

 grown from a stripling to a giant since 

 the senior Clark built his first green- 

 house, in 1849. 



Gunther Bros, find room a necessity, 

 and expect to move into ampler quarters 

 on Twenty-eighth street shortly. They 

 have had the usual prosperous year, and 

 are now of age, this being their twenty- 

 first year. 



Since Henshaw & Fenrieh consolidated, 

 the firm has done an excellent business. 

 Both "Hen" and "Pen" are crack 

 bowlers. Mrs. Fenrieh has fully recov- 

 ered from a dangerous illness. 



August Millang, proprietor of Millang 

 Bros., has some fine stock from Ordonez 

 ■Bros., Madison, N. J., among his Easter 

 supply. 



■ M. H. Walsh 's many varieties of ram- 

 blers will again be in evidence at the 

 handsome store of Wadley & Smythe, on 

 Fifth avenue, at Easter. 



A. Warendorff now has a quartette of 

 handsome stores from Wall street to Har- 

 lem. 



Charles Millang calls his new store on 



Sixth avenue the Crystal Palace, and his 

 expanse of glass corroborates the title. 



All the seed houses are doing a phe- 

 nomenal business, which the continued 

 chilliness of March does not seem to les- 

 sen. Harry Bunyard says he has been so 

 busy since his return from his western 

 trip that he has only had cat naps.

FLORISTS* PUBLISHING CO. 

 530-60 Cazton Bldg. Chicago 



Pierson TJ-Bar Co., and the Johnston Co. 

 all report lots of building for the spring 

 and summer already contracted for. The 

 same hopeful outlook is reported by 

 Jacobs & Sons, in Brooklyn. 



Mrs. W. C. Krick and her two sons 

 are continuing the long established trade 

 of Mr. Krick, and aim to enlarge it. 



F. E. Pierson Co. is well on the way 

 with its fourth half -acre house, and will 



add still another of equal size before the 

 summer is over. 



The Newman Floral Co., the only re- 

 tailer now between Twenty-third and 

 Twenty-seventh streets on Fifth avenue, 

 is doing a good business. 



Eecent visitors included Geo. H. Ger- 

 aghty, with J. H. Dunlop, Toronto; Al. 

 Salter, of Salter Bros., Rochester. 



The plant auction houses find the sea- 

 son opening fully as well as ever before. 



J. K. AUen looks forward to a larger 

 Easter than usual. 



J. J. Foley says the Lecakes Co., in- 

 corporated twelve months ago, has had a 

 successful year. 



James McManus notes that this is the 

 thirteenth Easter since he undertook the 

 popularizing of the orchid — and the thir- 

 teenth year certainly finds the flowers in 

 much wider request than in the twelfth 

 or any other year. 



Moore, Hentz & Nash find conditions 

 fairly constant, and look forward to the 

 usual good Easter. 



A. J. Guttman has had, this winter, his 

 most successful season. There is no limit 

 to his ambition, and he has plans for still 

 better things for next season. 



Kessler Bros, make a specialty of 

 plants in the wholesale cut flower dis- 

 trict. 



Trepel has just opened a handsome 

 branch store on Fulton street, Brooklyn, 

 with Wm. Humphreys as manager. He 

 is doing an enormous business. 



The nurserymen are having their ban- 

 ner season. The weather is holding in 

 their favor. 



A. L. Young & Co. recently made a 

 lease on the large store at 46 West 

 Twenty-eighth street, between the big 

 markets of Ford Bros, and Traendly & 

 Schenck, planning to use the space for 

 their increasing business. They have 

 now decided to remain in their present 

 location, at 54 West Twenty-eighth, and 

 to sublet the new store, ^here is a well
