Flower Market Reports 



iCetitinued from pagf S77) 



Beginning late last 

 PITTSBURGH week, Easter plants 

 have been moving 

 along nicely, and flowers continue 

 plentiful at about the usual prices, 

 sweet peas being the one exception. 

 The demand for these is rather un- 

 osual. 



The market was in a 

 ST. LOUIS deplorable condition all 

 of the past week, 

 every seasonable flower being in abun- 

 dance and prices differing greatly. 

 Extra fine roses will bring a price for 

 Easter, but the bulk of the stock in 

 roses will be as low as $10 per 1,000. 

 Carnations also will be in plenty. 

 Lilies, according to quality. Bulb 

 stock and sweet peas coming In 

 heavy. Smllax is again coming in 

 fine, also other greens. 



Despite the usual 

 WASHINGTON before-Easter dull- 

 ness, prospects are 

 excellent for a big Easter. Lilies will 

 be over-plentiful. Lily of the valley 

 will be scarce and the price probably 

 high, according to predictions. Car- 

 nations were profuse last week; this 

 week finds a shortening up in the sup- 

 ply. There will be plenty of violets 

 and sweet peas. On roses there will 

 be no shortage of any type. Orchids 

 have been very scarce and this condi- 

 tion will increase to the end that $12 

 and $15 per dozen will be the quota- 

 tions later in the week. Snapdragon 

 is good, but in little demand. Gladioli 

 are now to be had. Very fine pansies 

 and cornflower are offered and gar- 

 denias are in good supply and demand. 



The exhibit of the Cloche Company, 

 131 Hudson street. New York, was in- 

 advertently overlooked in our list of 

 the trade booths at the International 

 Flower Show last week. 



Saturday, April 29th, will be the 

 :50th anniversary of Arbor Day in 

 Massachusetts.
