ThcWeekly Florists' Review.

January 19, 1911, 



PACIFIC COAST. 



Meadow Lake, Wasli. — 'John Maas 

 has just completed a new house, 18x40, 

 to be used for lettuce and a few plants. 



Los Angeles, Oal. — After an illness of 

 three weeks ' duration, Frederick Hauss- 

 mann was removed to the hospital De- 

 cember 23, for an operation. During 

 his absence the business will be con- 

 ducted by his son, Milton, and the rest 

 of the family. 



Seattle, Wash. — Wm. K. Gibson, 

 manager of the Hollywood Gardens, 

 who suffered a severe accident in No- 

 vember, was taken to his' home at 

 Philadelphia January 3 by his brother. 

 He will remain in the east until he has 

 fully recovered. 



Santa Barbara, Cal. — A. Verhelle and 

 E. Lejeune, proprietors of the Exotic 

 Nurseries, have dissolved partnership. 

 The business will be continued by Mr. 

 Lejeune, under the old name and at the 

 same location, on State street. Mr. 

 Verhelle has established a separate busi- 

 ness and has named his grounds the 

 Kentia Nurseries, as he intends to 

 make a specialty of kentias. However, 

 he will also carry a large stock of other 

 varieties of palms. 



McMinnville, Ore. — S. H. Maris, pro- 

 prietor of the Pioneer Greenhouses, says 

 that the winter here has been particu- 

 larly mild, with no lower temperature 

 than 30 degrees above zero prior to Jan- 

 uary 1. Greenhouse plants and flowers 

 are fine and sell readily at good prices; 

 in fact, the quantity of stock lately 

 has not been sufficient for the demand. 

 The year 1910, Mr. Maris says, was a 

 profitable one for both florists and gar- 

 deners. 



Santa Monica, Oal. — Fashionable out- 

 door feasts in midwinter may not be 

 common throughout the United States, 

 but on the afternoon of December 30 

 the managers of the Golden State Plant 

 & Floral Co. entertained a party of 

 twenty-five friends at an elaborate out- 

 door dinner. Among those who sat 

 down to the feast, spread beneath the 

 pepper trees, were Mayor Dudley, sev- 

 eral of the councilmen and city officials, 

 bankers and nurserymen from Pasadena. 



McMinnville, Ore. — Herbert & Fleish- 

 auer report as follows: "This winter 

 has been the best that Yamhill county 

 has enjoyed for some time. Up to this 

 date, January 5, there have hpen only 

 three or four slight frosts and most of 

 the winter has been free from storms, 

 except frequent showers of the Oregon 

 type. S. H. Maris, one of McMinn- 

 ville 's ambitious greenhouse men, has 

 his new house partly covered with glass, 

 and we notice he is changing from the 

 north and south idea and running his 

 new house east and west, so as to face 

 the light we so much need in the short 

 days of December." 



SAN FBANCISCO. 



The Maiicet. 



The long looked for and welcome rain 

 is at last with us and, although it 

 hinders business for the time, it is 

 bound to make things much better 

 than they have been. Advices from in- 

 terior points in the state seem to in-

dicate that the downpour is general, 

 and a quick resumption of trade should 

 follow. 



Owing to the mildness of the prevail- 

 ing elements, there is a great plethora 

 of flowers of all kinds, and a few good 

 stiff frosts are needed to make stock 

 scarce. Carnations are selling at a 

 lower price than is usual at this time 

 of the year, and almost similar com- 

 ments could be made on everything 

 else. As usual, however, good roses 

 are holding their own, and from pres- 

 ent indications they will continue to 

 do so for some time to come. Violets 

 are a drug and bulbous stock is fast 

 getting to be in the same shape. 

 Freesias and daffodils, valley and nar- 

 cissi and other stock of that nature 

 do not move as quickly as is usual 

 at this time. Chrysanthemums are 

 still alive, but they are on the wane. 

 Other kinds of outdoor stock^ with the 

 exception of the bulbous powers, are 

 over for the season.
