The Florists' Review

ILeandro and Santa Cruz districts,. and 

 sold about 500,000 daflfodils per day last 

 week, some being handled on a com- 

 mission basis and some bought from 

 the growers. 



E. James brought in a few early ram- 

 bler roses last week. 

 T Joe Proietti is bringing in about 25,- 

 000 daffodils a day from the H. Hutton 

 place, near San Leandro, where he 

 bought the crop from five acres, about 

 500,000 in all. 



The preliminary entry list, which is 

 practically complete, for the Marin 

 county flower show in May, is being 

 sent out. Seventy-three entries are 

 provided for, those in the professional 

 class including, in addition to plants and 

 ferns and a large number of miscella- 

 neous entries, a number of prizes for 

 rose, carnation, sweet pea and gladiolus 

 exhibits. Only five entries are pro- 

 vided for florists, a basket of cut or- 

 chids, a basket of flowering plants, a 

 basket of cut flowers, a bridal bouquet 

 and a table decoration. 



It is announced from Eureka that the 

 retail business of the Cottage Gardens 

 Nurseries has been purchased by Dr. 

 H. F. Perkins, who will continue the 

 store under the name of Tbe Eosary, 

 He has leased a new locatioh in a good 

 district, and will have it handsomely 

 fitted up for his purpose. He expects to 

 secure at San Francisco a full stock of 

 such flowers as are not produced around 

 Eureka, and expects to employ a com- 

 petent designer. Most of the green- 

 houses of the C street plant of the nur- 

 series iviU be moved to the Eden estab- 

 lishment, leaving the house attached to 

 the residence for Mr. Ward's own ex- 

 periments. Mr. Nyeland, superintend- 

 ent of the Cottage Gardens Nurseries, 

 is giving considerable attention to 

 chrysanthemums. 



Joint rates on California nursery and 

 florists' stock to eastern destinations, 

 which mean a reduction of $1.25 per 

 hundred pounds in carloads of 20,000 

 pounds, were announced a few days ago 

 by the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and 

 Western Pacific railroads. The rates, 

 it is said, were made largely for the 

 benefit of growers on the line of the 

 Northwestern Pacific, but will benefit 

 growers throughout the state. 



An exact duplicate of the exhibit of 

 100 species of conifers, planted in the 

 lawn before the Lumbermen's building 

 at the exposition, has been presented 

 to the park board of Oakland by W. V. 

 Eberly, manager of the California Nur- 

 sery at Niles. The trees will be planted 

 in the new Lakeside park on the same 

 plan as at the exposition. 



Frank D. Pelicano now has his dahlia 

 tubers ready for shipment, and has al- 

 ready received many inquiries, espe- 

 cially for the prize-winning Minna 

 J^urgle, of which he has a large stock,

The Market. 



The cut of carnations which were 

 forced out by the warm sunshine 

 I'eaehed its maximum last week, causing 

 •I sharp decline in the prices realized 

 jy the growers. This is discouraging, 

 b«t is a condition, coming at the end 

 of a long spell of unfavorable weather, 

 over which the growers have but little 

 control. 



So far as reported, the February busi- 

 ness was less than that of last year.

During the first ten days of the month 

 there was but little doing on account 

 of the storms; hence it would not be 

 surprising if the decrease should aver- 

 age twenty per cent. At present the 

 demand for flowers is slightly below 

 normal, causing a surplus, part of which 

 will be wasted. Potted hyacinths of 

 good quality are offered in oversupply.
