Flower Market Reports 



{Cotttinned frontpage 3Q7) 



where in demand on St. Patrick's Day. 

 Out door narcissi are coming in from 

 Soutliern Illinois. 



There were plenty 

 WASHINGTON of flowers to be 



had last week at 

 practically the buyer's own price. This 

 was particulary true of violets and 

 sweet peas with which the market was 

 badly overcrowded. The latter part of 

 the week found conditions somewhat 

 improved but not to the extent where it 

 would do much good. White carna- 

 tions sold well for St. Patrick's Day. 

 Outdoor daffodils are to be had at low 

 figures. The greenhouse stock con- 

 tinues good and is in fair demand. 

 Most of the local growers are cut out 

 of freesia and this flower is one of the 

 few scarcities. There are more lilies 

 now to be had than the market can 

 possibly consume. Roses have been 

 selling better.
