 Flower Market Reports 



{Continued from page 4QQ) 



The market fell down 

 NEW YORK badly directly after 

 our last report, but 

 soon recovered in some degree, al- 

 though in the s|)ell of warm spring 

 weather which appears to be immi- 

 nent, it can hardly be expected to long 

 retain its backbone. Prices are down, 

 of course, and the winter schedule is 

 a thing of the past. It will be, from 

 now out, not so much a question of 

 market price as market activity, so 

 that the goods may be quickly un- 

 loaded. There are plenty of all roses, 

 carnations, sweet peas, violets, daisies, 

 lilies, cattleyas, etc., and quality holds 

 good. American P.eauty is the only 

 item that still lacks in supply and 

 quality. Daisies, both yellow and 

 white, are now overplentiful after a 

 long period of scarcity. Schroederae 

 is the main reliance in cattleyas at 

 present and the llowers sell slowly 

 at low figures. Dendrobiums War- 

 dianum and nobile are in good supply. 

 at $.5 per 100 blooms. Wallflowerg of 

 superb quality are seen in abundance. 

 They bring about 20 to 2.5 cents a 

 bunch of a dozen spikes. There are 

 plenty of lilies, and all bulbous ma- 

 terial is still abundant and cheap. 



There was a good 

 PHILADELPHIA volume of busi- 

 ness last week, 

 with large supplies and moderate 

 prices all through the list. The street 

 boys were a big factor on Friday and 

 Saturday and helped to clean up the 

 accumulated surpluses, so that there 

 was little left over and nearly every- 

 thing found a market of some kind. 

 The rose market is very well supplied

and all grades hang fire, especially in 

 the higher priced qualities. Where a 

 dozen American Beauties were being 

 cut a week ago there are now a hun- 

 dred. In pink roses, Russell and Kil- 



larney are the leaders. The former is 

 particularly fine just now and one of 

 the features of the market. The only 

 white is Killamey, but there are some
