The Weekly Florists' Review* 



NOVEMBEB 9, 1911. 



among the nurserymen of Idaho every 

 year. Practically every nurseryman has 

 a bearing orchard of his own. It is 

 possible that slightly fewer trees will be 

 planted this fall and next spring, but 

 the home nurseries expect to sell more 

 than ever. ' ' 



DETROIT. 



O 



The Market. 



This is the season of the year when 

 every bit of space in a commission 

 bouse is taxed to the limit. Mums re- 

 quire lots of room. Shipments are 

 heavy, not only in mums, but all kinds 

 of stock. Business has been good, but 

 not quite equal to the supply, espe- 

 cially in mums. 



Eoses and carnations are of finest 

 quality. Peas are now arriving, and, 

 being of best quality, they sell readily. 

 Cosmos also is good. Ere long the forget- 

 me-not will make its appearance. Vio- 

 lets are popular as ever. 



Various Notes. 



In all, about five dozen florists board- 

 ed the special car which conveyed the 

 members of the Florists' Club to Mt. 

 Clemens, November 2. The various 

 growers were visited in the usual rota- 

 tion and the most favorable exclama- 

 tions concerning the stock were heard, 

 as one establishment after another was 

 seen. Carnations at Robert Klagge's 

 and Theodore Mallest's places loomed 

 up above all else. Every available cor- 

 ner at the former place is devoted to 

 cosmos. Breitmeyer's whole range 

 never looked better, and Fred himself 

 looks as though growing flowers agrees 

 with him. Here a bountiful lunch was 

 served, accompanied by |the usual 

 speechmaking. Stevens, Taylor and 

 Carey -were next visited, and only words 

 of praise were heard. When August 

 Von Boeselager's place was asrived at 

 it was too dark to see much, but so 

 uniquely -was the large potting shed 

 decorated and so high were the tables 

 heaped with turkey and other eatables 

 that flowers -were for the time being 

 forgotten. 



Breitmeyer's new store was formally 

 opened to the public with a chrysan- 

 themum show November 8 and 9. 

 Breitmeyer is now featuring a regular 

 sale every Saturday. Mums have been 

 the inducement, at $1.50 and $2 per 

 dozen. 



Jerome K. Stock has commenced the 

 erection of a new store and conserva- 

 tory on Warren avenue, just west of 

 Avery. The store proper will be 24x55, 

 with offices, workshop and show house 

 in the rear. Mr. Stock will live up- 

 stairs. Just across the alley from this 

 new store is his large range of green- 

 houses. 



B. Schroeter's new store will be 

 opened next week, November 14 and 15. 

 Dainty ferneries will be presented to 

 the visitors as souvenirs. 



The Florists' Club will hold a fall 

 show November 14 and 15 in the Twen- 

 tieth Century Club building. A good 

 premium list has been issued. 



As previously stated, the Eose and 

 Carnation Societies' show, January 10 

 to 12, will be held in the Wayne pa- 

 vilion. Headquarters will be the Wayne 

 hotel, immediately adjoining the pa- 

 vilion. H. S.
