The Florists^ Review 



JULT 11, 1912. 



HOT WEATHER FLOWERS 



The summer months are indeed trying 

 ones for the Florist. You have to buy- 

 more or less stock, no matter how dull 

 business is. Anyone can give you rea- 

 sonably good flowers in Winter or 

 Spring, but it is more uncertain in Sum- 

 mer. More care must be used in select- 

 ing flowers for shipping, and still more 

 care in packing. This is the. season 

 when you particularly need our "Serv- 

 ice." We have the best of everything 

 in the market. Fortunately the extreme 

 scarcity of last July will not be re- 

 peated this year. We will have good 

 Carnations all this month. You will 



undoubtedly use large quantities of 

 Asters during the hot months. Every 

 one knows how miserable poor Asters 

 are, and how extremely unsatisfactory. 

 The really good ones, however, are quite 

 acceptable flowers to fill in the hot 

 months, when other stock is not in good 

 shape. We are fortunate in having the 

 best Asters that come into the market. 

 If you use Asters you may as well have 

 the best. At this season of the year 

 more than any other, you need a whole- 

 saler who is always trying to keep you 

 in business instead of trying to put you 

 out of it.
