FANCY STOCK 



FOR YOUR JUNE WEDDING WORK 



|F there is any time your customers will not forgive you the use of anything 

 but the best grade of flowers, it is for the June Weddings. Give a bride 

 the best and you win the new family for regular patrons, but let the wed- 

 ding flowers be open to the slightest criticism and you not only lose the 

 bride but her parents. To be on the safe side, use Smiing's flowers. 



ORCHIDS 



The Cattleyas we offer are western-grown, shipped fresh— nothing finer 

 in the country and sure to reflect credit on the florist using them. 



SWEET PEAS FANCY VALLEY 



There are no sweet peas to com- 

 pare with our Butterflies. And our 

 supply is by far the largest in the 

 middle west. All colors. Use these 

 for your Bridesmaid's bouquet and 

 make a hit. 



For years and years it has been 

 recognized by those who know Chi- 

 cago market conditions that Amling 

 can be depended on at all times to 

 supply the very best grade of Val- 

 ley. We always have it. 



We have fine crops of Roses in all varieties and can furnish any length 

 in quantity, but are specially strong on the medium and long grades. The 

 quality of our Roses is excellent. If you have not tried them, you will find 

 the size of bud is larger than ordinarily is found on stems of equal length. 

 Our special long Roses are the ones you want when your customer demands 

 the best money will buy. 



CARNATIONS 



The first few warm, bright spring days will relieve any shortage of Car- 

 nations in this market, but then the buyer who wants to avoid disappointment 

 will be all the more certain to order of Amling— our stock has the reputation 

 of holding up long after it is unsafe to ship the ordinary grade of Carnations. 

 Our stock is good— and it also is in large supply right now. 



PEONIES 



You know, and we know, that there is a lot of difference in peonies. 

 Good peonies are about as profitable as anything a retail florist can handle 

 in the season of June Weddings and Commencements, while poor peonies often 

 are a dead loss, not to mention the disappointment. We do not handle mis- 

 cellaneous consignments of peonies. Our supply comes from a few sources 

 that have proved dependable and which have been steadily enlarged. You 

 can bank on the quality of the peonies you get from Amling. 



EASTER LILIES 



We can supply flne Easter Lilies in large quantity every day in the year. 

 Prices always reasonable. 



OUR FERNS ARE GOOD 



There are plenty of Ferns in the country, but those in storage are 

 spoiling fast, and no one wants the soft new slock while grood stored 

 stock is to be had. Our Ferns are good— never kept better. How many 

 will you have?
