The Rorists' Review 



Apbil 24, 1913. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Sixth City. 



Favorable weather last week kept 

 trade moving at a brisk pace and the 

 market has been cleaned up closely each 

 day. Boses are improving in quality. 

 Some good Beauties are seen. Carna- 

 tions are fine and are plentiful enough 

 to meet all demands, but there will pos- 

 sibly be a considerable shortage by 

 Mothers' day. Snapdragons are at their 

 best now. Valley is plentiful. Green 

 goods are in fair demand. Of violets 

 there are only a few, home-grown. 

 Single sweet peas are short in supply 

 from local growers. Chicago stock is 

 plentiful and of good quality. Calen- 

 dulas and daisies are in heavy supply. 

 There is a good supply of Easter lilies. 

 Large quantities of lilies have been 

 used in the last few weeks. 



Various Notes. 



Guy Bate is busy at Newton Falls, 

 O., establishing the new plant of the 

 Cleveland Cut Flower Co. 



The bowling tournament of the Flo- 

 rists' Club is drawing to a close. The 

 game April 28, between the Daffodils 

 and the Tulips, will finish the season. 



Carnations are being planted in the 

 field by a few venturous growers. A 

 heavy freeze April 19 and 20 did some 

 damage to early sweet peas, etc. 



Adam Graham gave a talk on the 

 Panama canal before the Florists' Club 

 at its last meeting. Mr. Graham had 

 just returned from the canal a few days 

 before and his remarks were naturally 

 right up to the minute, as well as being 

 exceedingly interesting. 



Miss Schmitt, of the wholesale store 

 force of the J. M. Gasser Co., has the 

 sympathy of the local trade in the loss 

 of her father, whose death occurred 

 April 17. 



The Ohio Horticultural Society is 

 booming its flower show, to be held 

 .Tune 12 to 14. Several thousand "Wel- 

 come ' ' stamps have been passed around 

 to local florists, to be used on their out- 

 going mail. 



Carl W. Gerdum is getting estab- 

 lished in his new venture. He has pur- 

 chased the greenhouses on Schaff road, 

 formerly conducted by the Ohio Floral 

 Co. Mr. Gerdum will move his stock 

 of orchids, consisting of about 8,000 

 t-attleyas, from his old place in Lake- 

 wood to the new plant. He also in- 

 tends to grow a general line of cut flow- 

 ers and plants. 



W'. L. Rock, of Kansas City, Mo., 

 stopped off a few days on his return 

 from the big show. John Evans, Rich- 

 mond, Ind., was also a visitor.
