The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



APBtL 11, 1912. 



F LOWER BOXES 



Successful Florists use Sefton Boxes. To have success in shipping 

 flowers, YOU should use them. 



We offer a complete and superior line of cut flower, folding boxes in 

 numerous grades and sizes, as well as Corrugated Fibre Board Boxes 

 for Live Plants and Floral Designs. 



Sefton Florists' Boxes combine high quality with low price. We man- 

 ufacture them in large quantities and thus are able and pleased to 

 give you the benefit in reasonably low prices. 



I 



A box of high quality attracts the eye and makes it a pleasure to open 

 a neat, tasty package. Sefton Florists' Boxes are trade builders, inas- 

 much as they are high class and make a good impression. Purchasers 

 of our boxes were once users of the inferior grades.

Menaon Tbe Keview woen you wilt*- 



ter trade, as had W. S. Phelps, of 

 Marlboro. 



Adolph E. E. Koch, of Nobscot, has 

 a white seedling carnation for which 

 the demand is strong. He had an 

 almost insatiable call for his pink 

 snapdragon, 



Everett E. Cummings, of Woburn, has 

 one or two of his violet houses planted 

 with cucumbers, which look fine. He 

 had 75,000 single violets for Easter and 

 says he could have sold twice as many. 



W. R. Morris, of Wellesley Hills, 

 had a splendid lot of Killarneys and 

 Richmond roses April 6, which B. J. 

 McGinty soon cleared out. 



W. A. Hastings has been handling 

 the bulb stock of John J. Fee, at the 

 Boston Flower Exchange, during Mr. 

 Fee's enforced absence on account of 

 rheumatism. 



Remember the meeting of the Gar- 

 deners' and Florists' Club April 16. 

 There will be a lecture, fine exhibits, 

 a question box and plenty of interest 

 lor everyone. It has been decided to 

 postpone the annual banquet until 

 autumn. 



Arthur E. Thatcher, of the Arnold 

 Arboretum, leaves April 15 for Bar 

 Harbor, Me., to become manager of the 

 Mount Desert Nurseries. His many 

 friends here wish him every success in 

 his new and enlarged field. He is suc- 

 ceeded at the arboretum by Christian 

 Van der Voet, lately with Duncan Fin- 

 layson, on the Larz Anderson estate. 



W. W. Edgar Co. was simply over- 

 whelmed with Easter business, having 

 to turn down or cut on many orders. 

 Mr. Bartsch, the manager, says they 

 never experienced such a rush. 



Wax Bros., on Tremont street, had 

 attractive Easter windows. They had 

 a splendid lot of plants, while among 

 flowers they had a grand lot of cat- 

 tleyas, anemones, Spanish iris and 

 agathseas, or blue marguerites. 



The W. E. Doyle Co., on Boylston 

 street, was more than pleased with 

 the Easter trade. The big, handsome 

 store never had a more cleaned out 

 appearance than on the evening of 

 A'pril 6. 



W. B. Goodenow, of Stoughton, sold 

 90,000 double violets for Easter. .John 

 T. Gale, of Tewksbury, had over 75,000 

 and each says he could have sold many 

 more. 



Benry M. Robinson & Co. never ex- 

 perienced such a tremendous Easter 

 rush before. In addition to cut flowers 

 they had a great call for greenery.
