WHOLESALE GROWER OF CUT FLOWERS

derfully skilful in his color combina- 

 tions. 



It was W. J. Smyth's first Easter in 

 his enlarged store and he was able to 

 make a much better display than ever 

 "before, principally plant combinations 

 in baskets. The Michigan avenue win- 

 ■dow was used for an arrangement in 

 which both plants and cut flowers were 

 in the rich real Italian terra cotta Mr. 

 Smyth picked up on his recent trip to 

 Boston. There was a considerable 

 force of extra clerks to handle the 

 trade, a large part of which came the 

 last day. True to tradition, the largest 

 show window was broken Easter week, 

 but this time it was only splintered by 

 a stone. A smaller window also 

 ■cracked April 14. 



C. A. Samuelson had a rose garden 



for his Easter window, the center occu- 

 pied by a pink rambler trained on a 

 cross, with lilies, spiraeas and valley 

 growing naturally from a ground of 

 green moss in front. The stock of 

 plants, especially roses, was larger than 

 ever and a satisfactory clean-up was 

 made. A large number of mail orders 

 are handled here. 



George Wieuhoeber, of the Fleisch- 

 man Floral Co., says the lenten sea- 

 son was the best his concern has yet 

 had, scarcely less active than before 

 Lent. The week before Easter he says 

 sales every day ran ahead of the cor- 

 responding day last year. 



Andrew Miller got in from California 

 Thursday, helped out in the Easter 

 rush at Mangel's, where Henry Klun- 

 der now is right-hand man, and went 



out on his run again April 18. Last 

 fall Mr. Miller, who once was one of 

 Chicago's leading florists, decided to 

 return to the trade, but a few weeks 

 in the Mangel store brought on an 

 attack of his old ailment and he went 

 back to conductoring for the Pullman 

 Co. 



For its Easter comment-maker the 

 Bohannon Floral Co. showed several 

 rambler roses trained on balloon trel^ 

 Uses, with live song birds in small 

 cages hung inside. 



Harry Eowe's new conservatory was 

 a great aid in making a display and 

 in handling the rush. A rambler rose 

 trained in the form of a yacht was 

 the central feature of the window dis- 

 play. 



Gus Lange had his store so full of
