Flower Market Reports. 



{Covtin,.f,i from fag, t75) 



hair t'pni. Hydrangeas are the princi- 

 pal attraction in pot plants at present. 

 ■The common ferns, both fancy and 

 dagger, are getting quite scarce. 



The situation im- 

 PHILADELPHIA proved considera- 

 bly last week. 

 Trading was more active, and the in- 

 flux of stock fell off a good deal. 

 Quite a number of weddings and other 

 social functions took place, and one 

 big event in especial — the Tatt recep- 

 tion at the Union League — had a mar- 

 kedly good effect on the general tone 

 of the market. Richmond roses, 

 cattleyas, sweet peas, and gardenias, 

 were the most active stocks. American 

 Beauty roses were in good supply, and 

 sold fairly well: but at prices much 

 in favor of the buyer. The man who 

 had a good order got what he wanted, 

 generally at a good deal less than 

 quoted figures. Brides and Brides- 

 maids were in over supply. Killarneys 

 sold better than any other pink — with 

 the exception of .lardine. There are a 

 few Marylands coming in again, and 

 finding a ready market. They are 

 rather short stemmed. Carnations are 

 cleaning up well, and it looks as it 

 there would be no surplus of these un- 

 til after Memorial Day. The special 



carnation event known as "Mother's 

 Day'' is slated for next Sunday, which 

 ought to make a good demand for 

 Friday and Saturday. Easter lilies 

 and the general run of stock abundant 

 and in fair demand. Smilax is the only 

 scarce item among greens. New ferns 

 are commencing to arrive. 



NEW YORK MARKET. 



This a time of plenty— a surfeit of 

 plenty— in the New York cut flower 

 market. Not plenty of business or 

 plenty of money, but plenty of roses 

 and other things that the anxious 

 grower and bewildered wholesaler 

 would like to see moving on. Our 

 price quotations tell the story con- 

 cerning American Beauty only in part, 

 for most of the sales are made at the 

 lowest figure quoted for each grade. 

 All through the rose list the best 

 grades are the most difficult to real- 

 ize on. Carnations are not so heavi- 

 ly overloaded as other things and are 

 enjoying a little better call. 



Cincinnati and vicinity was visited 

 liy a damaging hail storm on April 20. 

 .\mong the heaviest losers in the 

 trade were W. K. Partridge, Max 

 Ruloph, Geo. Corbett, Walter Grey, J. 

 T. Conger and Geo. Meyer.
