Flower Market Reports NEW YORK QUOTATIONS PER 10 0. To Dealers Only 



{CanttHuid from pagt 85i) 



In the cut flower do- 

 NEW YORK main it is now prac- 

 tically a waiting game. 



The public are not disposed to do much 



flower buying at present and conse- 

 quently the call is light, as is the case 



every year at this particular period. 



The inclement weather — much more 



wintry than we usually experience in 



early December — has helped the situa- 

 tion materially and prevented any 



great accumulation ot stock or any se- 

 vere price depreciation. Stevia, Ro- 

 man hyacinths and paper white nar- 

 cissi are everywhere, in unreasonable 



quantities, and their market value 



will not make the growers rich. All 



other things are in moderate supply 



and excellent quality and prices are 



easily maintained. Strong values are 



indicated for Christmas on choice 



goods. 



Business kept up 



PHILADELPHIA last week in good 



shape, and there 



was a pretty general clean-up all along 



the line. Prices on the average were 



good, although in the opinion of good 



judges, not quite up to the record of 



previous years at this date. This is 



especially true as to high-grade roses. 



In the lower grade roses prices have 



been proportionately better. White 



roses and good Richmonds are on the 



scarce side. There is an abundance 



of pink roses. Carnations continue 



of fine quality, and prices have 



stiffened a little, if anything. Jeanie 



Nonin is about the only chrysanthe- 

 mum left, and it is not coming in now 



in its best form. Orchids still scarce and 



prices holding firm. Cattleya Trianae 



and Cypripedium are the leading sorts, 



with a few spray orchids. Violets are 



plentiful and good— the local supplies 



being supplemented in some quarters 



withHudson River stock. Lily of the 



valley is still rather scarce. Sweet 



peas are coming in more freely and 



will improve right along. What little 



mignonette is arriving is only of medi- 

 um quality as yet. There is a regular 



supply of white lilac sprays which 



finds ready takers at good figures. 



Boxwood, holly, lycopodium and other 



greens are unusually scarce, and most 



dealers have stopped taking more or- 

 ders, and are having difficulty in fill- 

 ing those already on hand. 



The market has been 

 ST. LOUIS scarce of stock for the 

 last two weeks and the 

 outlook for Christmas is not very 

 bright as to the supply of cut flowers. 

 Everything in the market at present 

 is at top price. Roses are in fairly
