IRISH GARDENING. 



J^ettuce is still very scarce. TJiere were some nice 

 lots of Cucumbers for .sale, and some Peas from 

 the Channel Islands, all realizing novelty prices. 

 The early Potato growers from Rush were first on 

 the market ; they offered a coiisignment of verv 

 good Potatoes in the middle of Mav. which were 

 bought up eagerly at 2s. per lb. 



In the fruit section Gooseberries are the newest 

 commodity. A few baskets of these were on the 

 market towards the end of the month; they were 

 hardly wliat might be termed large enough for 

 picking. Tlie amount of Strawberries for sale 

 IS not any greater than was offered a month ago. 

 but the price has fallen considerably. 



There was a lively demand for cut flowers and 

 a fairly good variety was offered. The leading 

 features just now are Arum Lilies, Tulips, Roses. 

 Rhododendrons, Lily of the Valley, Carnations 

 and Stocks. There was a large collection of 

 flowering plants in pots and all met with eager 

 purchasers.
