The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Seftkhber 28, 1911. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



Last week will go on record as one 

 of the poorest of the season. Supplies 

 accumulated to such an extent that no 

 reasonable offer was refused, and large 

 quantities of flowers could not be 

 cleared up. The Jewish holiday made 

 considerable difference to business. 

 With the Hebrew element out of the 

 market for several days, there was a 

 marked falling off in sales. The out- 

 look for this week's business was bet- 

 ter, but such unwieldy quantities of as- 

 ters, dahlias and carnations seemed to 

 overwhelm every one. 



Some fine roses are to be seen and 

 the better grades move fairly well, but 

 there is a veritable deluge of short - 

 stemmed blooms of Killarney, Brides, 

 Maids and any quantity of Cochets. 

 Carnations are rather more plentiful, 

 but are not selling well and any num- 

 ber could be had on the streets. 



Golden Glow mums seem to move a 

 trifle better and will be seen in large 

 quantities this season. The chrysan- 

 themum, not satisfied with its own sea- 

 son, is overlapping on the aster and the 

 dahlia. October Frost made its appear- 

 ance in fine form September 23. Tube- 

 roses are exceptionally scarce and in 

 excellent demand. 



Various Notes. 



The fifth annual dahlia show is held 

 this week at the greenhouses of B, 

 Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co., at Cowenton. 

 Nearly forty acres are planted in dah- 

 lias alone and about fifteen acres in 

 cannas. It is one of the best displays 

 that this firm has ever shown and the 

 Gardeners' and Florists' Club attended 

 on Wednesday in a body, as that was 

 Florists' day. 



James Hamilton has finished glazing 

 his new house, 40x200, which is the 

 most up to-date house built around 

 Baltimore this season. Mr. Hamilton 

 is one of the largest growers of car- 

 nations in the state. 



F. C. Bauer will give a talk at the 

 club in the near future on his travels 

 in Europe and what he saw there.
