FLOWER MARKET REPORTS. 



(Continued from page 2 ) * 



Last week — June 

 PHILADELPHIA 21st to 26th— 

 probably saw the 

 last of the good business of the sea- 

 son, so tar as commencements and 

 such affairs are concerned. StocK 

 now coming in is of but poor quality, 

 and there is nothing of extra grade in 

 sight to stimulate business. The quan- 

 tity of inferior grades arriving is enor- 

 mous — much greater than the market 

 will absorb. In fact there is hardly 

 any call for such — and it practically 

 lies over until the end of the week; 

 and is then cleaned out for almost 

 nothing or else sent to the dump. A 

 sharp advance in the price of Ameri- 

 can Beauty roses took place on the 

 2Sth ult. (nearly 25 per cent.) in con- 

 sequence of a rather general clearing 

 of benches among the growers to 

 make room for new planting. Kai- 

 serin roses are all to the good among 

 the whites at present, and for pink it 

 is — My Maryland. Everybody asks 

 for the latter in preference to any 

 other pink at present. Carnations are 

 very small flowers and inferior gen- 

 erally. There will be a crop of 

 outdoor carnations in a few days 

 — mostly Crocker, Enchantress and 

 Queen. The outdoor varieites are 

 not generally large, but they are 

 usually very durable and sell at 

 reasonable figures. A few outdoor 

 gladioli are now coming in; but so far, 

 they do not compare with the under- 

 glass May, Shakespeare and America. 

 The sweet pea crop is very fair con- 

 sidering the hot weather of- the past 

 week. Orchids, water lilies, white 

 Japanese irises, gardenias and candi- 

 dum lilies are normal as to supply, 

 quality and demand. All the minor 

 items are plentiful and bring up the 

 reluctant tail end of a sluggish proces- 

 sion. 



Real summer 

 INDIANAPOLIS weather has set 



in, an average of 

 about 90 degrees in the shade. The 

 stock coming in shows the effect of 

 this e.xtreme heat and is rapidly de- 

 teriorating. American Beauties, Kil- 

 larneys and Kaiserins have the call 

 and are fine, equal to any seen here 

 during the winter season. There are 

 still a few storage peonies which 

 come in fine shape and are used to 

 good effect in decorations. The 

 sweet peas are particularly fine this 

 week owing to the absence of the 

 heavy rains. Good lily of the valley 

 and orchids ai-e a trifle scarce. Blab- 

 orate wedding decorations are fewer 

 this June than for several years past, 

 a very strong feeling of simplicity be- 

 ing in evidence in this line. There 

 never was such a scarcity of Boston 

 ferns as at the present time. Ferns 

 and boxwood trees are in evidence by 

 a big majority in every. way that they 

 can lie used, hence the scarcity. 



Trade has dragged 

 ROCHESTER some and the week 

 has been quiet. Our 

 commission salesman, Geo. Hart, re- 

 ports that shii)pers were badly mis- 

 taken, commencement being over so 

 that it was impossible 1o obtain any 

 particular market prices, and he had 

 to tai-p practically any jirice offered. 

 The market is glutted with carnations. 

 We look forward to the finish of early 

 outside stocks to steady prices a little.
