The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Mabch 7, 1912. 



BOOHESTEB, N. Y. 



The Market. 



Severely cold weather still holds this 

 •city in its grip, and naturally it ham- 

 pers business to some extent. How- 

 ever, for Lent, business has been un- 

 •usually good, aind there are numerous 

 informal social functions given at this 

 time, cut flowers especially being in 

 demand, while spring openings have 

 begun to draw on the florists for dec- 

 orations of all kinds. 



A little sunshiny weather has 

 ■brought on an abundance of blooms. 

 Carnations are plentiful and good in 

 •quality, but are selling at a low fig- 

 ure. Sweet peas are flooding the mar- 

 'ket and are much reduced in price, al- 

 though the stems are longer and the 

 flowers much larger. Roses, too, are 

 much more plentiful than at the last 

 •wi-iting and have gone down the scale 

 •of prices, except Beauties, which re- 

 main at a high figure. Calla lilies are 

 ■more abundant the last ten days, as 

 also are Harrisii. 



The effect of the spring sunshine 

 •upon flowering plants is wonderful. 

 Azaleas, primroses, camellias, lilacs and 

 imarguerites are in splendid condition 

 and full of flowers. Since there is a 

 ^reat demand for plants at this time 

 ■of the year, they are bringing a fair 

 iprice. Azaleas seem to sell the best. 

 Daffodils are in first-class condition and 

 are in great favor. 



Various Notes. 



A number of the downtown florists 

 'had special sales Saturday, March 2, 

 principally of violets, sweet peas and 

 roses. These sales made business hum. 



James Bishop is still confined to the 

 *house. 



Geo. B. Hart is handling some new 

 ^greens from California. 



The Maurer-Haap Co. is selling lilac 

 bushes, potted, budded and ready for

 tion with Henry P. Neun 's store in the 

 Mercantile building.

 •flower committee are S. C. Pierce, Fred 

 C. Cozean, J. G. Knittle and Philip 

 Mohr; N. O. Beilby, secretary; G. V. 

 Southard, treasurer. 



Henry P. Neun recently sent out 

 «ome attractive announcement folders 

 to the Rochester public, inviting them 

 to visit the new store and calling atten- 

 tion to the fact that Frank Reeg was 

 ■doing his landscape and gardening work 

 for him. Mr. Reeg has been with EU- 

 wanger & Barry for twenty-five years.

 grape culture on Lake Keuka, died at

 •cial sale of jardinieres.
