A large percentage of them are split. 

 (Jallas and Easter lilies are none too 

 plentiful yet. Violets are about the 

 same as last reported. Sweet peas are 

 in great demand and there is a limited 

 supply of them. They are used exten- 

 sively in corsage bouquets. 



Snapdragons, calendulas and mignon- 

 ette are in somewhat small supply. 

 Daffodils and jonquils are at present the 

 feature of the market and are clearing 

 well, considering the abundance of other 

 stock available. Narcissus poeticus is 

 plentiful. Tulips are more than ffuf- 

 ficient in all colors. Roman hyacinths 

 and freesia are poj^ular, especially the 

 latter, which is used considerably in 

 the making up of baskets and table 

 decorations. Myosotis also is added to 

 the array of spring flowers. Pussy 

 willows are in adequate supply. Greens 

 are sufficient in quantity and continue 

 to sell easily. 



Various Notes. 



A representative of Reed & Keller, 

 of New York, was in town last week. 



Charles Butt, manager at S. A. An- 

 derson's greenhouses, reports having 

 some extra fine La Reine and Yellow 

 Prince tulips. His lilac plants also are 

 in excellent condition. 



Hugo Burkle, on Long avenue, finds 

 his calla lilies to be quite profitable, 

 considering the small amount of space 

 they use. Business at his place has 

 been good. 



John Schweichler, of North Tona- 

 •wanda, has an excellent batch of Easter 

 lilies, which will be ready for the mar- 

 ket about the right date. 



Barney Myers, of Lancaster, N. Y., 

 is sending some extra fine snapdragon, 

 which is in large demand. 



The Buffalo Florists' Club will hold 

 its annual banquet and election of offi- 

 cers at the Hofbrau, March 7. The af- 

 fair has long been looked forward to, 

 on account of the great merriment and 

 sociability that always prevail. E. E. 

 McLeish will deliver an address on 

 "Salesmanship and Advertising," 

 which will probably give many of the 

 florists some new ideas to develop. Wil- 

 liam F. Kasting will give a talk on a 

 stimulating topic, of interest to every-
