Tlip sjKH'iinons were too expensive to bo 

 used freely; all the other sizes were 

 pojiular. Roses were not so much grown 

 as usual. Some of those that were 

 K'lowu (lid not bud well. The smaller 

 Iilaiits of the rambler type were best. 



Genistas were good and fairly plen- 

 tiful. Daisies were grown freely with 

 the idea that they would do service 

 as .substitutes for spirsea. They failed 

 to meet the approval of many of the 

 t'uyers, though marketed in fair num- 

 bers. Rhododendrons and bougainvilleas 

 were absent. Bulbs were fine; hyacinths 

 were especially so. They were largely 

 used both in pots and pans at prices 

 iimcli higher than were asked before. 



The sweet pea was the disappoint- 

 ment of the cut flower market. Out- 

 ride of peas the stock was, in the main, 

 satisfactory. Sweet peas were at their 

 '■•'St a fortnight ago, maybe a little 

 more. By the time Easter arrived they 

 were not at their best. This fact was 

 =|frgravated by the growers' attempt to 

 ' iild the flowers on the vines and by the 

 •lamp weather coming at just the wrong 

 ' ime. There was a pretty good crop of 

 ■•^weet peas for Easter. It was not so 

 large as it had been and it was not of 

 ^'iph superlative quality; so the buyers 

 i;rumbled a little. Fancy peas brought 

 $4 and even $5 per hundred; most of the

stock sold at from $1.50 to $3. Double 

 violets sold well at $1.50 per hundred, 

 and even more. There were not nearly 

 enough of them. There were no single 

 violets. Orchids were in fair supply. 

 C. Mossise brought $1.25 to $1.50; C. 

 Schroederffi, 75 cents to $1, and a few 

 tight C. Trianse brought $1. 



Spring flowers were much in evidence 

 in the shops. Snapdragon was consid- 

 ered excellent value at from $8 to $16 

 per hundred. Daffodils came next at 

 $4, $5 and even $6. Good daffodils were 

 worth these prices. Unfortunately, 

 there were many poor daffs, soft, over- 

 ripe. The growers kept them until the 

 last moment, hoping they might retail 

 them direct. Failing to do this, they 

 were cut and rushed in to the wholesale 

 market in an evident state of "going." 

 Good callas were popular at from $25 to
