Flower Market Reports 



f.C^nirniued from page s.^j 



as to quantity and quality. There is 

 a notably good demand for pompons. 

 American beauty roses are moving 

 fairly well, while short-stemmed roses 

 are less plentiful but also in less de- 

 mand. Lilies are holding their own, 

 but orchids are hanging fire. Aspar- 

 agus plumosa is a little on the short 

 side. The wholesale firms are all 

 more than rushed in their supply de- 

 partments 



No particular im- 

 ROCH ESTER provement has yet 



taken place in the 

 market and prices remain unchanged. 

 Mid-season chrysanthemums are arriv- 

 ing in good quality. Bonnaffon Is 

 probably the best seller on the market. 

 Artemisias are not overplentiful. 

 Roses are in excellent supply, but do 

 not move over fast and prices are 

 somewhat lower. Violets are selling 

 fairly well. Carnations are in heavier 

 supply but none too plentiful. A few 

 good lilies are in the market. 



Flowers of all kinds 

 ST. LOUIS are in good demand 



with prices reasonable. 

 Some fine fancy chrysanthemums are 

 now arriving. Roses and carnations 

 are excellent. Violets and sweet peas 

 are now getting more call. Pompons 

 and other chrysanthemum plants are 

 selling well. 



Report of the meetings of the West- 

 chester and Fairfield Horticultural So- 

 ciety, Holyoke and Northampton Flor- 

 ists' and Gardeners' Club, secretary's 

 report of the Chrysanthemum Society 

 of America and R. A. Vincent's inter- 

 esting paper on "Cooperation" have 

 been crowded out of our columns this 

 week but will appear in next week's 

 issue.
