Easter Notts. 



Easter trade was up to the best •ex- 

 pectations of the growers, sufficient 

 quantity of nearly evei-ything being 

 available. Beauties and other roses 

 were , plentiful and of a high grade. 

 Carnations were abundant and of .a 

 fair quality. Wholcsala prices ruled 

 much the same as Chicago quotations. 

 Retail prices were for ordinary stock 

 about the same as usual at Easter 

 times. Special grades commanded good 

 prices. 



Lilies, which were plentiful, were of 

 various qualities, some first-class, while 

 a portion were poor in quality. The 

 best retailed at 20 cents ix'r bloom and 

 bud, the poorer quality being hard to 

 sell. The supply of green such as smi- 

 lax, asparagus, etc., was sufficient to 

 cover all demands. 



Pot plants, such as azaleas spiraeas, 

 rhododendrons, etc., commanded a ready 

 sale, especially the smaller plants. 

 There was a good supply of bulbous 

 stock, which was cleaned up early. 



The Dunkley Floral Co. had a fine 

 stock of lilies. Their carnations, which 

 were in full crop, gave them an abun- 

 dance to supply their numerous cus- 

 tomers. 



Sam Batson also had a fine cut of 

 carnations and. as he confines himself 

 to this one thing, he invariably does 

 them well. 



The Central Michigan Nursery Co. 

 had a good display of rhododendrons, 

 lilacs, azaleas and other flowering 

 shrubs. 



G. Van Bochove & Bro., although be- 

 ing handicapped by, being flooded, made 

 a magnificent showing, their Beauties 

 and other roses being superb. They also 

 had an abundanc? of high grade carna- 

 tions, lilies, callas. and other supplies. 

 which were well cleaned up. Notwith- 

 standing their misfortune they reckon 

 this as being one of their best Easters. 



The weather was mild, which made 

 delivery a pleasure. Ribes.
