Flower Market Reports. WHOLESALE FLOWER MARKETS.- 



PUK lUU. 

 TO DEALERS ONLY. 



Business has taken a 

 BOSTON lalher unexpected turn 



since last report. In fact, 

 the most abrupt interruption of the 

 present season has been experienced 

 during the past few days. The sum- 

 ni'-r business has come to a very sud- 

 den end and the regular fall trade has 

 not yet crystallized. The conditions 

 as thev now exist are a disappointment 

 to the wholesale trade especially, but 

 are not by any means abnormal and 

 an exercise of reasonable patience will, 

 no doubt, see things eventually righted. 

 Asters are easily the prime favorites 

 of the market. Beauty roses hold their 

 own as leaders. Other roses are doing 

 fairly well, Liberty, Kaiserin and Car- 

 not holding a position of pre-eminence. 

 The young roses, of whatever variety, 

 are beginning to develop strength and 

 stock generally is improving from day 

 to day. 



There was plenty of 

 BUFFALO everything the past 

 week, especially asters 

 of ordinary quality and gladiolus of 

 mixed varieties and a good quantity 

 carried along from day to day with 

 prospects of an outlet, but trade on 

 the quiet side. Very few carnations 

 are seen; there is a good supply of 

 roses, also lilies and other material. 

 The demand for Beauties has been bet- 

 ter and the medium and short grade 

 having sold the best. The late branch- 

 ing asters are coming in more plenti- 

 fully, and some excellent stock is seen, 

 but rain is wanted badly. Some choice

gladiolus are had and have sold well. 

 Plenty of greens. 



The almost entire ab- 

 CmCAGO sence of carnations 

 marks the close of Au- 

 gust. The young plants in the fields 

 are greatly refreshed by the long-de- 

 layed rain and stock is generally ex- 

 pected to be good, though rather small. 

 Gladioli have had a good chance to 

 add to their reputation as summer 

 flowers and certainly plenty of fine 

 blooms are to be seen everywhere. A 



little more knowledge of how best to 

 use them would do much towards fur- 

 ther increasing their popularity. There 

 are now all the Beauties and other 

 roses that the trade needs and the 

 quality is very good. Asters are very 

 satisfactory, all sizes and colors being 

 seen in abundance. So far the aster 

 growers have had no reason to com- 

 plain, the crop turning out much bet- 

 ter than at first anticipated. The usual 

 early chrysanthemums are in and
