Flower Market Reports 



t,Ccntinued front pa^e S''>9^. 



consumers have switched to chrysan- 

 themums for the time being. Carna- 

 tions continue to improve and are 

 moving very well. Orchids not quite 

 so plentiful. Lilium rubrum continues 

 a feature of the market, the shorts 

 being a favorite item for design work. 

 Pink snapdragon is arriving in quan- 

 tity and is long stemmed excellent 

 stock. 



Business continues 



PITTSBURGH fairly quiet with no 

 excitement along 

 any line of trade, owing to the pre- 

 cluded society entertaining incidental 

 to war conditions. There are plenty 

 of good quality flowers of all varieties, 

 American Beauties being over abun- 

 dant and having absolutely no demand. 

 Business has 



ROCHESTER, N.Y. not been very 

 brisk for the 

 past week. Chrysanthemums are very 

 abundant. The run of pompons have 

 begun and includes yellow, bronze, 

 white and lavender, the yellow being 

 the best seller. Roses are all in good 

 quality. Some very fine American 

 Beauties and Francis Scott Keys are 

 on the market. Violets are coming 

 better In color and the demand is 

 larger. Harrisii lilies are in again. 

 Gladioli are still on the market but the 

 quality is poor. Carnations are scarce 

 and not very good. Autumn foliage is 

 being used extensively in basket ar- 

 rangements of pompons and other 

 chrysanthemums.
