Short Christmas greens supply hits Freeport market
Christmas greens for holiday decorations will be scarce in Freeport this year and prices are expected to rise sharply. A dealer said prices could advance about 100 percent by mid next week due to poor crops in northern Wisconsin, rising demand as woodlands are cleared elsewhere, and rising local use. Florists’ orders placed months ago are only partly filled and last year’s high sales are likely to recur. Texas holly and mintletoe may substitute for some greens.
