LOOSE FLOWERS OF ALL KINDS AT ALL SEASONS. 



OUR SUPPLY PRACTICALLY UNLIMITED. 



VARIETY AND QUALITY UNEXCELLED. ALL FLOWERS GUARANTEED FRESH. 



BEING always fully alive to the importance of this branch of our business, and being greatly encouraged by the annual in- 

 crease in the trade, we were not only the first in our city to build gTeenhouses especially aud exclusively for 

 the cultivation of plants to supply cut-flowers only, but we have unremittingly kept in view the requirements of 

 the trade and the demands of our patrons, and have from time to time made additions to our greenhouses, and, in every 

 vpay suggested to us, increased our facilities for producing- and handling- large quantities of flowers, so that 

 to-day we are justified in saying we have tlie most extensive range of greenhouses for the production of cut- 

 flowers and tbe best equipped store, exclusively devoted to this special trade, in the Xorthwest. Further- 

 more, it has always been our aim not only to supply such flowers as are popular and in demand, but also to introduce every 

 new thing- suitable to the trade and worthy of attention. 



WE ARE NOW IN A POSITION TO SUPPLY EVERY DEMAND.-it must be evident 



that the product of any one florist's establishment is more or less limited, and that it would be at least impracticable to grow 

 such quantites of flowers as might at certain times be in demand, flowers being such perishable articles they cannot be kept 

 fresh beyond a day or two. However, by special arrangements and contracts we now have with several of the large wholesale 

 flower growers, easily accessible, men who make a specialty of growing flowers to supply dealers such as ourselves, we uow 

 bave at command almost unlimited quantities of the very choicest flowers at all seasons, for in addition to 

 the large quantities we ourselves produce, we receive daily shipments from these establishments under contract with us, the 

 supply being limited only by our demands. 



WE NEVER FAIL TO FILL AN ORDER if sufficient time is allowed us. Generally a very short time 

 suflices, although for our own and our customero' sake we desire all the time the circumstances will permit; we are thereby 

 better enabled to do full justice to the order.

 The main oflices of all Express Companies are in the next block from our store, so that an order for a quantity of loose 

 flowers can be boxed and delivered in the Express office in ten minutes after its receipt, and almost any ordinary floral piece

 tent stalf of workmen, assisted by every facility known to the trade, accomplish their work well and expeditiously.

 particular to give full naiue and address, and state distinctly the article 

 required and when you wish it shipped or the time you wish it to arrive. If floral pieces are required for some 

 special purpose, and customers cannot determine what to choose as most appropriate, if the selection is left to us we alwaj'S 

 carefully exercise our best judgment to send that which is suitable. Persons unknown to us will please give satisfac- 

 tory city references, or send cash with their orders; or, if so desired, we will ship C. 0- D.

 compared with those of a few years ago, they are very low, placing even the choicest flowers within the reach 

 of every one.
