. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. ^W7«Tn;-» T-TT^' X J- ^ 116 ?^ COLUMBUS, O. The Market. Trade is quite heavy, with some stock scarce, while other flowers are quite plentiful. Roses are coining in a little more plentifully and some good stock is on the market, while there also is some rather poor stock. Short roses are scarce, as nearly all the cut is of me- dium and long grade. Killarney as a rule is rather pale in color, but other- wise good. Beauties have been a little scarce and the demand rather light. Carnations are not blooming heavily at present and a great many splits are reported from some growers. The cuts are away below what they should be at this date, but with clear weather they should pick up at a rapid pace. Bulbous stock is quite plentiful and most of it moves about as fast as it comes in. Lilies have been a little scarce. Sweet peas are more plentiful than for some time and are moving well. Violets are quite plentiful, with the demand good. Valley is more abundant. The sale of potted plants has been heavy and a quantity of stock has been moved in the last week or so. Delivers has been difficult, as we have Imd real winter here for the last ten days or more. Various Notes. The Munk Floral Co. reports busi- ness good and the new branch doing well. The Livingston Seed Co. says busi- ness is heavy, with stock at times quite scarce. The Columbus Floral Co. is cutting some good roses and carnations. A flim-flam man was in town last week and tried to work several florists to take an order for flowers and send change for a twenty. After he failed to make connection with the florists, he finally caught a gents' furnishing goods concern and also passed several bad checks, so the florists are shaking hands. ,T. M. Iron Eiver, Wis.—Llewellyn Phillips has completed his greenhouse and ex- pects to have it in operation soon. Uptil it is ready to produce blooms, shipments are being brought in to take care of the trade he is working up. 'n
