BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



There is an increase in the supply of 

 some items, but a decrease in others. 

 There is little change in the market 

 compared with that of a week ago. 

 Beauties are scarce and those to be 

 had are not of good quality. As for 

 other roses, the supply is exceedingly 

 short, but growers assure us that with 

 a little fair weather there will be a 

 larger supply of roses. Carnations are 

 increasing in quantity, but most of them 

 are of inferior grade, either split or 

 with weak stems. First-class carna- 

 tions are none too plentiful. Bulbous 

 stock is becoming more abundant. Eed, 

 white and yellow tulips, daffodils and 

 jonquils are all plentiful. With a good 

 supply, these seem to have a tendency 

 to drag. Paper Whites meet with a 

 fair demand. Sweet peas, freesias 

 and hyacinths continue to sell well, 

 Violets, especially singles, meet with 

 an increasing demand. Orchids and 

 valley are decidedly scarce. Asparagus 

 Sprengeri has been on the short side 

 and Asparagus plumosus has been more 

 plentiful, but there is not enough of 

 «ither to supply all wants. 



Various Notes. 



Eecent visitors in Buffalo were A. B. 

 Ruppert, of Philip L. Carbone's, 

 Boston; W. A. Manda, of South Orange, 

 ^ . J. 



Edward Walthers, who has been on 

 the sick list for several weeks, has 

 fully recovered. 



William Adams, E'mil Brucker and 

 Mark Palmer attended the meeting of 

 the New York Federation of Floral 

 dlubs at Cornell last week. 



Mrs. Katherine A. Backer, 485 West 

 Utica street, died suddenly last week. 

 She had charge of a flower shop on 

 Elmwood avenue. 



The Buffalo Cut Flower Co. has dis- 

 ■continued business and the Wm. F. 

 Kasting Co. has bought its remaining 

 ■stock and supplies. 



Charles H. Netsch, who has a flower 

 store on Genesee street, will open a 

 wholesale house March 1. He formerly 

 -conducted a wholesale house at 355 

 EUicott street. The trade wishes him 

 success. 



S. A. Anderson had a unique St. 

 Valentine's window. In the center 

 there was a large kewpie doll with rib- 

 bons reaching to different articles in 

 the window, among which were some 

 pretty valentine boxes. 



The carnations in western New York 

 are at present not of the best quality, 

 being weak of stem, split and faded. 

 The wholesalers are getting some nice 

 -carnations from Boston and New York. 



ANEMONE NUMS 



Japanese Anemone C. L. HUTCHINSON Single Anemone MRS. CARRIE RYERSON 



In this variety we have the ideal Anemone. 

 The color of the petals is a pure white and the 

 center a bright yellow, making a beautiful con- 

 trast. It is a good grower, splendid dark foli- 

 age, and, the best of all for pot work, needs no 

 support. 



Japanese Anemone MARIE POOLE 



Very distinct and beautiful flower, which is 

 very large, and the color is a combination of 

 bronzy salmon, flushed with pink; the high 

 center is bright oran«?e yellow. One of the 

 oddest and must novel flowers ever introduced. 

 Good pot plant. 



D. D. P. ROY •••Sr.nS"- 



Creamy white; very good habit: needs no sup- 

 port. An excellent variety for Thanksgiving. 

 Makes good pot plant. 



Single Anemone THOMAS DUNN 



A very free bloomer, good foliage; ten to 

 twelve flowers on spray, open at once. Color 

 yellow, under petals bronzy yellow. Splendid 

 keeper.' Blooms for Thanksgiving and is good 

 two weeks or more afterwards. Needs no sup- 

 port.

An artistic window display for St. 

 Valentine's day was that of W. J. 

 Palmer, 304 Main street. In the central 

 background was a heart four feet in 

 diameter, with an arrow of Harrisii 

 lilies piercing it. In the front part of 

 the window were many prettily 

 trimmed baskets and boxes of valen- 

 tine flowers. A. E.
