. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 1062 The American Florist. Mar. 2, Springfield, Mass, COLD WEATHER ENDED.—STOCK PLENTI- FUL AND TRADE BRISK —MANY FDNERAL FLOWERS NEEDED. The continued cold weather has broken at last, after seventeen days. No stock was injured, but the few days of mild weather are quite a relief. Stock is plenti- ful and of good quality, but none going to waste, quite a number of funerals call- ing for many designs. The funeral of Ex-Governor Haile kept Mark Aitken busy and a number of palms were used in the church decoration. There was quite a number of designs that came from Boston, which were very pretty and well made up. Some nice azaleas are to be seen now and sell well. Stock for Easter looks promising. Longiflorum lilies are strong, clean and not so much diseased as in former years. All the boys are busy getting stock ready for spring. A. B. Fremont, Neb. Business has been good all through the season. C. H. Green says that trade is so heavy that he has been trying to do with 10,000 feet of glass what one would expect to do with 25,000 feet. He will build a new rose house 20x150 this spring. Indications point to a very heavy Easter and spring business. Mr. Green is cutting some very high grade carnations, Genevieve Lord, Gen. Gomez and G. H. Crane. Ethel Crocker is act- ing badly with him but he thinks he has not given it the proper temperature and expects to do it better next year carried at 56° at night. >/2VS«D SonrHiNGTON, Conn. — The Bristol street greenhouses have been leased by Chas.
