The Florists' Review 



HAT 16. 1818. 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The Market. 



Mothers' day at Indianapolis was 

 quite a success. The market was thor- 

 oughly cleaned up and little stock was 

 available May 12. Not only white car- 

 nations, but anything in the shape of 

 a flower sold. There was quite a little 

 newspaper advertising done this year 

 and nearly every mother's son thought 

 it his duty to buy her flowers. 



Trade has been somewhat better the 

 last week. 'The weather has been ex- 

 tremely cold for this time of the year, 

 there being a light frost on the night 

 of May 12. The florists doing a bed- 

 ding business are hustling now, and 

 judging by the way things have opened 

 up this should be a good year. Good 

 vinca vines are a little scarce this year, 

 and the price is going up every day. 

 There is not a great variety of cut 

 flowers at this time. Good roses and 



ileauties are plentiful, as are carna- 

 ions. Snapdragons find a ready call, 

 ut the supply is short. Sweet peas 

 and daisies are cleaned up dllily. 



Various Notes. ^ 



S. T. Hitz & Son are installing a new 

 boiler and erecting another greenhouse. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 State Florists' Association was held in 

 the store rooms of the Smith & Young 

 Co. May 6, with about eighteen mem- 

 bers present. President Coles was in 

 the chair. Considerable business was 

 transacted. It was decided to omit 

 the June meeting on account of the 

 business rush of the florists. The meet- 

 ing was followed by the usual lunch 

 and social features. 



Albert Marshall, formerly with A. 

 Wiegand's Sons Co., has opened a stand 

 at the market. 



Bertermann Bros. Co. furnished the 

 decorations for the opening of the 

 Canoe Club. 



George Wiegand has the golf fever. 

 The Wiegands are well represented at 

 the Highland Golf Club. 



Frank Hasselman is busy with the 

 plant business. H. L. W. 



NEWPORT, E. I. 



A large shed for gardeners' tools and 

 a potting house are being erected on the 

 Cr. Roderick Terry estate on Gibbs 

 avenue. 



"William Jurgens has commenced the 

 erection of a terra cotta dwelling with 

 brick trimmings, on Butler street, to 

 cost $4,500. 



H. J. Hass & Son are maintaining an 

 all-night service, so that flowers may be 

 ordered at any hour. W. H. M.
