. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 996 The American Florist. Jtme 2^1-^. SOMETHING NEW. CALDWELL THE WOODSMAN. The Man Who Cava You the Wild Smilax. Now that the season for Wild Smilax is over, and no more stocli can be supplied, I wish to call your attention to the Branches of the Huckleberry Tree as a most elegant Decorative Green. It is largely used by the florists of the Pacific Coast, Washington and Oregon, in decorations. The branches are FLAT, very thickly turnished with exceedingly lustrous, green leaves, and it seems to adapt itself to almost any posi- tion in decoration that the Wild Smilax can be used in. As the introducer of Southern Wild Smilax, I think you can give me credit for knowing a good thing when I see it, and I am convinced that in Huckle- berry Branches you will have a very beautiful substi- tute for the Wild Smilax, of great value to you through the months of May and June. I am anxious to get the verdict of the floral trade on this Introduction, and offer to send you a case on suspicion, price $ per case if it suits you, nothing if it does not. Will you try a case on these terms? THE VERDICT We are in receipt of your shipment of one case Huckleberry Branches, and are pleased with it. Send by express five cases at once. WM.
