ThcWeekly Florists' Review. 



77 



The express drivers' strike is now a thing of tfie past. Have 

 your mind now on business, be wide-awake and prepare for 

 Tlianksgivins: and the holidays. It won't pay you to let otiiers 

 set ahead of you. Don't look at what is behind, but go right straight 

 forward. Make a break for GODFREY ASCHMAIWS peea- 

 houses, to the old reliable firm who always looked after your inter- 

 ests and who protect you in your trade. We have no department store customers. We sell strictly to the trade only. If yoo have room, 

 liow is the time to purchase your supply, while the weather is mild and shipments can be made safely. ' 



It is of no use to look elsewhere for cheaper prices. Remember that we are, and always shall be, in control of the market in 

 America for ARAUCARIA EXCELSA Robusta Compacta and Glauca. 10,000 of all sizes, last spring's importations, now ready for 

 .-shipment. Remember this is our 25th Anniversary in importing and shipping Araucarias. Can handle the largest order at short notice.

AZALEA INDICA. 



Now Is the time to force Azalea Indica for 

 Christmas. What varieties will you force? Sure- 

 ly the ones, the early varieties, that I know I can get 

 in in time for Xmas. There is Deutsebo Perle, one 

 of the best early double whites. We liave plants full 

 of buds, at 80c. 60c, 76c. $1.00. $1.26. $1.50 to $2.00 each. 

 Simon Mardner, you know this variety well. It is an 

 early, deep, double pink variety. 60c. 60c. 75c, $1.25, 

 $1.60 to $2.00 each. Vervaeneana, one of the old 

 standard, well-favored, large, double, variegated 

 varieties. 60c, 75c, $1.00. $1 26. $1J»} to $2 00. How 

 about Apollo? This is a deep, single red variety, al- 

 ways full of buds. 60c. 60c, 75c, $1.00. $1.26 to $1.60. 

 Didn't you ever hear of that earliest of all varieties, 

 Mme. Petrick? This is a variety hard to beat, pink, 

 doable flowers, full of buds and never falls to 

 bloom. A child can bring this variety into bloom 

 for Christmas. It is very scarce and high in price 

 this fall in Belgium. You must have a few of them 

 anyhow, $1 00. $1.28. $1.60 to $2.00 each.

 only the well known standard American varieties, 

 such as Mme. Van der Cruyssen. pink (very scarce
