. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. 90 The Florists'Review adoost lo. me. NEWARK, N. J. The Market. The florists' business in Newark is exceptionally quiet. It is only occa- sionally there is a wedding or social event that requires flowers or plants, and funeral work is less in volume than earlier in the summer. Gladioli are arriving in large quan- tities and each week sees a greater va- riety of them. The quality of the flow- ers is good and the price reasonable.
