The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



IPBIL 29, 1900. 



COLUMBUS, OHIO. 



The Market. 



Trade for the last two weeks has been 

 good, both in funeral work and in recep- 

 tions, etc. Stock has been somewhat 

 scarce, as the bulb stock is pretty well 

 cleaned up and we have to fall back on 

 roses, carnations, lilies, etc. Roses are 

 in fine shape and of good color. Carna- 

 tions are good, and while they are coining 

 in heavily, it does not take long to <;lean 

 them up. There is a good sprinkling of 

 Harrisii and callas, which help to swell 

 the stock. 



Pot plants are selling well, and there 

 are quite a few ramblers, etc., still to 

 be had. Azaleas are about cleaned up. 

 Everybody is getting busy on the spring 

 rush, and we all look for a good plant 

 trade, with stock in good shape. 



Various Notes. 



The Plorists' Club held a meeting at 

 the store of the Fifth Avenue Floral Co. 

 Tuesday evening, April 13. There was a 

 good attendance, and everybody wanted 

 to get in line early for 'our annual picnic, 

 which will be held at Buckeye lake. 



Mr. Jones, formerly grower for J. R. 

 Hellenthal, is now with the Fifth Avenue 

 Floral Co., at its country plant. 



The change in administratipn will no 

 doubt make some big changes in the 

 state institutions, and the boys here are 

 on uneasy seats at present. J. M.

We are having nice spring weather 

 and outdoor stock is budding. Business 

 is brisk, Avith many parties and luncheons. 

 Orchids, gardenias and violets are in 

 great demand. Carnations and roses are 

 at their best. 



The preparations for the florists' em- 

 ployees' dance are steadily going on. 

 This promises to be a delightful affair. 



Ogden Gaul, of the Cleveland Cut 

 Flower Co., was in the city on business 

 April 24. 



Miss Thekla Baur has returned from 

 a visit in Toledo, O. B. P. 



Jacksox, Tenn. — The Metcalfe Floral 

 Co. had probably the largest Easter trade 

 in the history of the firm ; almost every- 

 thing salable was cleaned out by 8:30 

 Saturday evening, April 10. Mrs. J. A. 

 C\inningham, of Institute street, also sold 

 a large quantity of stock, consisting 

 chiefly of carnations, valley and roses. 

 Wilson's Greenhouses reported big sales, 

 with the best demand for carnations.

It is like this: It has always 

 been difficult for us to give our 

 numerous western inquiries the 

 personal attention we wanted to. 

 We believe there is a special 

 advantage in being in closer 

 touch with you all. 



Chicago is the business center 

 of the West and Far West, and 

 naturally enough we have lo- 

 cated there. Of course, we want 

 to be right in the business center, 

 so we have selected an office in 

 The Rookery Building, on the corner 

 of La Salle and Adams Streets. 

 You will find this office in 

 charge of a member of our 

 firm, Mr. George Sykes. He 

 has been with us going on 

 fifteen years, and thoroughly un- 

 derstands greenhouse building. 



When you are in town, look in 

 upon him. If not convenient to 

 do this, drop him a line.
