The Florists^ Review 



NOVEMBEB 21, 1912. 



HOLLY 



nHAVE just completed my contracts with the Holly peo- 

 ple of Delaware, Maryland and Virginia for my supply 



HOLLY 



for the season of 1912. I secured my Holly this year 



to be cut from the swamps in the lower part of Delaware and 



Maryland, as it is greener and has more berries on than the 

 upland Holly. It will be strictly first-class in every particular. I will have it packed as usual, in regular size cases, 

 2x2x4, and I positively guarantee it as represented. My first car will arrive here about December 1. The price on orders 

 received during November will be $3.00 fper case, f . o. b. Philadelphia. 



I have my Wreaths made of the brightest dark green 

 Holly possible to secure, wrapped with wire, on 10-inch 

 hoops, and each Wreath has four or five spots of berries. 

 Price. $10.00, $i2.50 and $16.00 per 100, according to weight 

 and quality. 



My Laurel Wreathing comes from New Jersey. The 

 Laurel is gathered in the swamps, and the Wreathing is made 

 by hand on heavy roping in 50-yard lengths. Price. 3c per yd. 



The Mistletoe comes mostly from North and South Car- 



olina and is well berried. Price, $2.50 to $4.00 per barrel ; 

 $6.00 to $10.00 per case, according to quality, about 100 lbs. 

 to case. 



Lycopodium, in 10-yard rolls, 4c to 6c per, yard. 



Christmas Trees, 6 to 20 feet high, 76c to $2.60 each. 



Send me your orders ; state the day you want it shipped, 

 and if by freight or express and by what route or railroad. 



All Christmas Greens are sold on spot cash terms, and 

 checks must accompany all orders.

and the quality is right up to their 

 usual high standard. 



Inquiries at the several seed stores 

 show that Dutch bulbs are now quite 

 low, and in many varieties entirely 

 sold out. The season has been a satis- 

 factory one. 



Kameyama & Serada, of Stoneham, 

 were unfortunate enough to lose a 

 house of 600 dozen mums, owing to the 

 cold snap. A bursting steam pipe com- 

 pletely spoiled the entire crop. 



W. W. Edgar Co., of Waverley,, and 

 W. H. Homlinson, of Dorchester, are 

 shipping in fine batches of Mme. Fet- 

 rick and other early azaleas to the 

 Boston Flower Exchange. 



The E. Sutermeister Estate, of Read- 

 ville, was the first to send in stevia. 

 They sipl have a fine lot of candytuft 

 and have a big lot of bulbous stock 

 coming along. 



PkKe Bros., of Waltham, have this 

 se#l|oS five large houses of roses, the 

 entire cut being handled by the Flover 

 . Giovugm' Sales Co. Varieties grown are 

 KUlttt^ey, White Killarney, Hillingdon 

 and Bichmond. 



J. N, Leach & Son's new light pink 

 ' carnation, Pink Supreme, is doing 

 splendidly with them this season, and 

 J. M. Cohen, who handles Messrs. 

 Leach's flowers, says that the demand 

 for it is far in excess of the supply. 



Stanley R. Fisher, son of Peter 

 Fisher, was quietly married last month 

 to Miss Jennie Hubbard, of Norwood. 

 The young couple have returned from 

 a two weeks' honeymoon and are 

 ensconced in a fine new house just com- 

 pleted near Mr. Fisher, Sr. A host of 

 friends wish the young couple every 

 success in life. Mr. Fisher, Jr., is asso- 

 ciated with his father in business. 



John K. M. L. Farquhar is home from 

 his Minneapolis trip enthusiastic over 

 the outlook for the S. A. F. convention 

 there next August. He praises the St. 

 IPaul show highly. Mr. Farquhar now 

 has two presidencies, each calling for 

 much of his time and lat>or, viz.; the 

 S. A. P. and Massachusetts Horticul- 

 tural Society. W. N. Craig.

The weather is ideal for growing, the 

 days being bright and the nights cold. 

 Roses are thriving particularly well, 

 and the prospects for heavy cuts for 

 Thanksgiving are excellent. My Mary- 

 land is scarce, but Killarney can take 

 care of all the demand for pink roses.
