The Florists^ Review 



JuNB 5, 1913. 



houses and frames here shows that there 

 will be plenty for everybody for late 

 planting. Mr. Turner has ideas of his 

 own as to how a pipe frame house 

 should be put up and his plans for 

 this latest house show some interesting 

 deviations from the usual. 



R. W. Saakes returned recently from 

 a trip to San Francisco. 



Frank Lichtenberg has been suffer- 

 ing from a severe attack of rheuma- 

 tism. 



S. Eoberts, of the nursery staff of 

 the Germain Seed & Plant Co., has 

 been away from his post several weeks 

 on account of sickness and does not 

 rally as quickly as his friends and 

 co-workers could wish.

The Market. 



From all accounts, the shipping for 

 Memorial day was even better than it 

 was last year. There was considerable 

 difficulty in some instances in getting 

 sufficient stock of the kinds most popu- 

 lar with the out-of-town florists. There 

 were plenty of roses and carnations, 

 but such items as stocks, candytuft, 

 gaillardias and coreopsis were not in 

 such profusion as they are usually seen. 

 The extreme dryness of the season un- 

 doubtedly had much to do with this. 

 Bride gladioli were plentiful enough; 

 the full crop opened more favorably to 

 the growers than it did last year, when 

 it was about one week late. Other vari- 

 ties of gladioli are not yet in great evi- 

 dence. Peonies, except for the darker 

 sorts, were also past their prime. 



The street hucksters seem to have had 

 the best of the cheaper lines of Memo- 

 rial day business and many hastily 

 improvised stands in the vicinity of 

 the cemeteries reaped a good harvest. 

 Inside roses, especially the short- 

 stemmed stock, are in heavy supply and 

 the prices are much below their usual 

 level at this time. Green goods are not 

 overabundant and some of the stores 

 had difficulty in getting enough with 

 which to fill country orders. Taking 

 the situation in its entirety, however, 

 the shipping trade was good, while the 

 town business was not quite up to ex- 

 pectations. 



Various Notes. 



The E. W. McLellan Co. has taken 

 charge of the store of the Hackel Floral 

 Co. and has retained E. Hackel as man- 

 ager. 



Frank Bradford, of the Mayflower 

 Flower Shop, who has been ill for the 

 last two weeks, is able to attend to his 

 duties again. 



One of the largest out-of-town ship- 

 ments made this season for Memorial 

 day was a dray load of mixed flowers 

 from N. Bolleri & Co., of Oakland, and 

 consigned to the Eddy Floral Co., of 

 Reno, Nev. 



The Trumbull Seed Co., on Market 

 street, has added a full line of bee-keep- 

 ers ' supplies to its poultry and seed 

 business. 



Emil Serveau is completely renovat- 

 ing his Fillmore street store. 



H. Plath has returned from a pleasant 

 trip in the southern part of the state. 



The California Retail Florists' Asso- 

 ciation, held its regular meeting on the 

 evening of May 26, at Native Sons' 

 hall. The new set of by-laws was 

 adopted. There was a large attendance.
