Flower Market Reports 



{Centinued from pagt 2bfi 



ready buyers. Mignonette has im- 

 proved in quality and is now a factor 

 of more importance, commanding 

 quick sales at good figures. Ttie spell 

 of darlc weather ■which we have had 

 since the middle of December still 

 continues — the worst in many years. 

 American Beauty roses are among the 

 scarcest things on the list. A few 

 good specials coming in and that is 

 about all worth speaking of. The me- 

 dium and lower grade Beauties as 

 usually seen are conspicuous by their 

 absence. 



St. Valentine's day was 

 ST. LOUIS an exceptionally good 



business day tor both 

 retailer and wholesaler. All through 

 the week the commission men had a 

 splendid market in both business and 

 con.signment. There was plenty of 

 stock and it seemed that all In the 

 trade were busy at the same time. 

 Roses are coming in better than for 

 the past tour weeks and price is down 

 to $S per 100 for choice. Carnations, 

 too, took a drop and $2 is about the 

 average price for the best. Violets 

 were so lileutiful all week that $2 to 

 $2.50 per 1000 was asked for good Cali- 

 fornias. Sweet peas also dropped to $2 

 In 1000 lots for good stock. All bulb- 

 ous stock is in plenty and down in 

 price, averaging $3 per 100 for the 

 best
