Flower Market Reports ! 



{Cotttiiiitfd from pa£^ 101) 



Wholesale market is in 

 ST. LOUIS better conditiou than 



for some time. Show- 

 ers have helped greatly the outdoor 

 stock which was nearly all burned out. 

 Prices are not high and quality is 

 poor. Gladioli are much in evidence 

 just now. Roses are in fair tlower but 

 short in stem. Lily of the valley holds 

 well, also lilies. Hydrangeas are in 

 demand. 



Business during 

 WASHINGTON the past week has 

 been comparative- 

 ly satisfactory considering the season _ 

 of the year. The bulk of the sales are P 

 on gladioli which are flooding the mar- g 

 ket. It is practically impossible to H 

 get high-grade roses and carnations B 

 and orders for these are turned down. m 

 Dahlias are improving in quality. g 

 Asters are more plentiful but are prac- B 

 tically worthless. ■ B
