Flower Market Reports 



^Continued /rum page 757) 



supply of flowers of all kinds to fill 

 the Thanksgiving demand. The month 

 of November as a whole has been 

 quiet, there being few decorations of a 

 size worthy of mention. Chrysanthe- 

 mums have reigned supreme through- 

 out the month and fair prices pre- 

 vailed. Roses are in fine form and 

 moving nicely in the cheaper grades. 

 Some exceptionally fine orchids have 

 been appearing during the past week 

 or ten days and violets are consider- 

 ably better than they have been. 

 Sweet peas, both pink and white, have 

 begun, and considering the earliness 

 of the season they are quite good. 

 The same can be said of lupin, snap- 

 dragon and narcissus, which are be- 

 ing offered by local growers. 



The steady improve- 

 NEW YORK ment of last week 



has been well main- 

 tained and the general tone of the 

 market is decidedly good. Some of 

 the wholesalers have been able to re- 

 port a clearance, but at prices, how- 

 ever, which do not show a great ad- 

 vance upon those which have lately 

 been quoted. The supply of roses has 

 not been any too bountiful, in fact we 

 have been short of American Beauty, 

 Taft and Sunburst. We have a quanti- 

 ty of stevia and mignonette. The 

 latest addition in the cut flower line is 

 poinsettia with 3 feet stems, but there 

 is no great demand for this Item for 

 which the dealers ask $3 per dozen. Pa- 

 per whites and yellow narcissus do not 

 move at all well. Pot plants have 

 been making a fine show and trade 

 for these is flourishing.

 servatories. They are fine flowers and 

 easily bring 40 to GOc. 



H. B. Buck, of A. T. Boddington's is 

 just back from an extended trip in 

 southern parts and reports business 

 good. There is a great demand, he 

 says, for eastern novelties. Things are 

 brisk at the 14th street store and the 

 spring catalogue will be ready well on 

 time.

 bor, Me.; P. Welch, Boston; Mr. and

BOSTON NOTES. 



W. J. Stewart and two daughters 

 have returned from Bermuda whither 

 they went on Nov. 16 for a short recre- 

 ation trip. 



J. K. M. L. Farquhar, who recently 

 returned from the St. Paul show is full 

 of enthusiasm over the splendid suc- 

 cess attending that enterprise and the 

 optimistic spirit existing in the twin 

 cities regarding the S. A. F. Conven- 

 tion of 1913, at Minneapolis. 



Comment on the extraordinary long- 

 keeping qualities of the new rose Mrs. 

 Charles Russell is repeatedly heard. 

 In this respect the rose is positively 

 unique. The petals are very thick and 

 wax-like and do not seem disposed to 

 fall off at all even after being cut tor 

 two weeks. Mr. Montgomery reports 

 an insatiable demand for the blooms 

 fi-om all parts of the country. 



Visitors: D. Cameron, representing 

 F. Sander & Son, St. Albans, Eng.; 

 Gustave Thommen, Billerica, Mass.; 

 Prof. E. A. White, Amherst.
