week in his new store at 20 Geary 

 street. He is making an attractive 

 display on a rather unpretentious scale, 

 and has the interior neatly fitted up in 

 green tones, with furnishings to match. 

 He reports a satisfactory start. 



Schwerin^ ^08. last week brought in 

 the first good Pink Pearl rhododendrons 

 of the season. The stock looks nice 

 and has been well received. They also 

 have been bringing in forced hyacinths 

 and tulips. 



E. James has been putting on the 

 market a large lot of cinerarias during 

 the last few weeks. Much of the stock 

 was exceptionally good and made a fine 

 showing at the stores, particularly be- 

 fore the spring stock came in so abun- 

 dantly. 



The MacRorie-McLaren Co. is laying 

 out a large planting for the Fitzhugh 

 place at Woodside. 



Mrs. K. E. Darbee has been shipping 

 many violets and says stock is quite 

 plentiful now, though it was hard to 

 get for a time. She has been trying 

 some shipments of pussy willow, which 

 has been plentiful. She finds tnat the 

 gardens and flower shows at the expo- 

 sition have brought a great deal of at- 

 tention to California flowers. 



Miss Rothschild, of the Bellevue Flo- 

 rists, says business is picking up. She 

 believes that San Francisco needs a 

 larger population to support the trade 

 as it has been conducted for the last 

 few years; but from present indications 

 she believes the needed growth will 

 now come fast. 



Podesta & Baldocchi are specializing 

 in orchids this season and have been 

 doing some advertising along this line. 

 They have maintained excellent orchid 

 displays, using many of the less plenti- 

 ful varieties as well as the ever-present 

 cattleyas. 



Frank Pelicano now is bringing in a 

 nice cut of his new violet, Quaker Lady, 

 though he has not yet enough of them 

 to sell other than at retail. 



Jack Olson, of the New Roserie, has 

 been busy this month executing many 

 dinner decorations, in addition to a 

 steady run of funeral work. He finds 

 the potted tulips and hyacinths ex- 

 tremely popular during the fortnight 

 or 80 that they have been in. 



W. Bingham has bought out the Jor- 

 dan Park Flower Shop, at 323 Clement 

 street, which has been conducted for 

 some time by F. E. Stratton. 



Miss Jennie Miller, formerly of Mo- 

 desto, is opening a new flower shop at 

 617 L street, Merced, Cal. 



Charles Willis Ward has returned to 

 Eureka and is ready for the receipt of 

 large shipments of foreign plants and 

 shrubs from Avery Island, La., for 

 which arrangements were made during 

 Mr. Ward 's eastern trip. Plans are be- 

 ing drawn for a new lath house. 264x

The Market. 



Business last week showed the ef- 

 fects of the stimulus of the near-spring 

 weather that prevailed all the week. 

 Valentine's day was observed by many 

 with gifts of cut flowers and potted 

 plants. Several retailers report the 

 best business they ever had on that 

 day. Funeral work was considerably 

 above normal and there was unusual 

 activity in decorations. Several deal-
