A Fashionable Florist Sketches its Present Oonaition and Proba- ble Future. New York Post. The flower busines: seems to be in & transition state this winter ‘‘Have fiowers bacome fashionable?” asked a reporter of the Evening Poat of the florist who has for yeara done the largest business among the ball- glvers and dioner-givers of the town “No,"” was theauswer, ‘‘that is not s0. Poople think so becaus they see that Indles do not oarry a0 many and 80 larga boquets ¢s they dii, and be- cause funeral notices always end with ‘Please omit flowers.” We ssll more flowers than ever, but the manncr of their distribution 1s diffsrent; tho time is coming when flowers will be looked upon ns wholly lndispensable to a ball or dinner; bat guests will be no more ,expected to bring thelr own flowars than their own supper. This 1is ‘one of the rodults of the change from cheap to coatly flowers. - A few years ago peo- ple knew comparatively littla about flowers, especlally roses, and wanted quantity rather than quality; then, as people grew to be conuoiskeurs in such matters, only the finest roses were wanted, which, of courss, resulted in fower flowers of a botter 'quality. When the times grew prosperous ersentlal, but one man, with aptitude | for the busiiess, can produce twica the effect with the same material as an fuferlor workman, That is why | New York florista do some of the | oream of the business in Boston, | Philade!phia, Washington and | even Bultimore. All these ocities | have as many flowers as Wwe have, but their florists do not know how to uee the materinl. Besides dec- orating the supper table and rooms for balls, we frcquoutly have to make up favors for the Garman, and these are often mude to coat from §3 to §6 aplce. The futention is generally to combine in a favor a few beautiful | flowers ond something that will ra- main 88 & m mouto of the occasio 80 the holder is of silver or porcelain, or a basket of valne is nsed. A few | nights sgo the baskots wera Leghorn hats, which will doubtless be trimmed and wora next summer, ““PLEABE OMIT FLOWERS.” “The reascn that sp many persons | have ‘‘Ple sy omit flywers” aiter funeral notices is, I believe, beoaure the flowers teut do not always suit the fastidious taste of the present day, and I hive noticed that the very people who do not want flowers sent give costly ordera to the florists, only, instead ¢f a wroath or s brok:n col- umn, and so forth, all the money is spent on a basketful of loose fliwers of value, which nre thrown over the again a few years ago the orders for flowers became as many. as ever, but only costly l wers were in demand, and there are to-day forty-eight flor. {ets doing business in N.w York city, their total earnings swounting to nearly $2,000 000. WHAT FLOWERS CAN BE MADE TO COST. “‘The best business comes from rich pecple who give orders to furnish flowers and decorations for such sn evening at such a price, and do not covcorn themselves with details. Thue flowers for a dianer party of fifty cov- ers can easily be made to cost from $600 to $1,000, and I have hsd one dinner this winter for which my bill wae $3,000. That, of cougee, Incladed the decoration of the dining room after spoclal deslgos, which were first prepared In color, showing tho masses of follage, the palme, and the beds of flowera in different parts af the room When you consider that hybrid roses, of which there are seven different vari- etles, oost §1 aplecs, and that 100 cf them can be crowded Into a vess or mantelpicos, you sce how the money goes. Marshal Nlel and Jacqueminot roses are worth now fity oents apiece, bat there is & little follage with them, whereas o hybrid rose with ite atem and leaves is quite » boquet in itself Here are the desigus for the decora- tions of & great ball to be given at| Dalmonico's next month. Kach side of the room forms a noparate design, the masses of the foliage and flowers belog first considered and then the colors. Differevt kinds of palws are used to glve rellef to flac walls and light and ehade to brilliantly lighted | rooms, Much art s displayed in | uslng green of different color val ues. And this brings me to say thatin the good taste drsplayed in srra exv:g | the flowers, In the make-np of floral desigos aud bouquets and decrations, gonsista tho advantege which & fow florlsts have over thelr competitors To have besutiful flowers is of course coffiu, Some of the desigos that are sent fo funerals would make me turn in my coflin if put over me, and the present step is in the right direction. ““In single bouquets the businces is large, bat perbaps not so large as it used to be. The prices rangs from 86 | to $25, ' ¥ havesenc out §6/0 worth | of small bovquets in one day., With rores at $1 apieco, violeis at $10 a thonsand— they were §30 a thoussnd | ot Christmas time—ard lilies of the valley at the same prico, i s easy to make bouquets that ¢t moucy and people who buy flowers can appralse the value of a bouquet at a glanco nowadays. To sum vp, I may say that no city in the world speuds | more money than Now York for cut flowers, I frequently uee ap & thoueand doliars’ worth in one day Lo Paria and London the bustneas con- oists more in potted plants.
