TORONTO. 



We have had an unusual amount of 

 bright weather this spring and the sea- 

 son is about three weeks ahead of last 

 year. The city parks and gardens are 

 gay with spring flowers and foliage. 



Trade in general has been good, very 

 good, and I doubt if we will have sutli- 

 cient bedding stuff to go round, as there 

 has been and will be an unprecedented 

 demand this spring. Pansies wintered 

 well and there is an abundance of fine 

 stock. They sold slowly at the opening 

 of the season, but are going fast enough 

 now. 



Roses and carnation.s have been plen- 

 tiful and the prices, I think, a little 

 stiffer than last year, though not high 

 by any means. 



G. P. Plumb, who opened a retail 

 store in the upper portion of Yonge 

 street (one of our main thoroughfares), 

 reported satisfactory business results. 

 Mr. Plumb was recently at the head of 

 the flower department of one of our big 

 stores; he is also one of an old flower- 

 growing family. 



A very successful "at homo" was 

 held by the local Gardeners' and Flor- 

 ists' Club recentlv. C. W. 



ROCKPORT, O. 



May 10, as I was passing Gasser's 

 Rockport greenhouses, I ran in to get out 

 of the snowstorm (which was a lively 

 one), and was well paid for it. 



Mr. Kennedy showed me a large house 

 of roses planted last fall for summer 

 blooming, containing Kaiserin, Testout 

 and others. Some of the Kaiserins are 

 .just coming into bloom and they are the 

 finest I ever saw. The other kinds are 

 later, but are in splendid condition. 



They have the sides and bars up for 

 two large houses, 300 feet long, to be 

 planted to roses. Other houses will be 

 built, also a new boiler-house with two 

 80-liorse power boilers. 



Mr. Schuman, formerly with Bassett & 

 Washburn, Chicago, is in charge of the 

 Essex Greenhouses, Mr. Jacobson going 

 to Bridgeport, Conn. Acme. 



Ft. Wayne, Ind. — Miss Flick has re- 

 moved from her old salesroom at 33 W. 

 Berry street to the new building at 43 

 and 45 W. Berry street. The new store 

 is splendidly arranged and equipped.
