Flower Market Reports 



{Confiirtufd fretn pagf I2Q^ 



calendulas, coreopsis and helianthus all 

 are in big supply, but do not sell very 

 good. Shipments of roses include very 

 good Sunburst and Marylands, but 

 they pop open very fast. Large quan- 

 tities of greens are reaching the mar- 

 kets, for which there is not much sale. 



Trade absolutely at a 

 ST. LOUIS standstill. Stock In 



asters small. Tube roses 

 are in but not in big supply. Roses 

 show the effect of the teriffic heat. No 

 supply of carnations at all last week. 



Consignments of gla- 

 WASHINGTON dioli are so great 



that the receivers 

 find difficulty in making room for 

 them and it has gotten to the point 

 ■where it is only where quality and 

 price are attractive that orders are 

 placed. Lilies giganteum, rubrum and 

 regale are in heavy supply and there 

 is little or no sale. Roses are very 

 small. Only a few of the Northern 

 roses are reaching the market in 

 salable condition. Carnations are 

 about done for. The summer slump is 

 not so bad this year because of the 

 largely increased population and the 

 fact that there is more entertaining 

 this summer than ever before. It has 

 rained practically every day for so 

 long that twenty-four hours of fair 

 weather would come as a surprise.
