The Market. 



Business was good last week, in spite 

 of the changeable weather. There was 

 a good demand for spring flowers and 

 roses for wedding and table decora- 

 tions. Potted plants sold well, espe- 

 cially cyclamens, cinerarias, primroses, 

 rambler roses and baby azaleas. Cut 

 flowers are none too plentiful and 

 prices in general are holding up well. 

 Calla lilies are showing up well on the 

 market and sell readily for funeral 

 work. Beauties are scarce. Other roses 

 are more plentiful than at the last writ- 

 ing. Shawyer, Killarney, Eichmond 

 and Ward are in the largest supply. 

 Russell and Ophelia are of good quality, 

 but not nearly so plentiful. Violets are 

 plentiful and meet with a fine demand. 

 Cattleyas are abundant, especially the 

 Trianse. Antirrhinums are increasing in 

 supply, but sweet peas are rather scarce. 



The florists all report business for the 

 month of February as being exception- 

 ally good, considering the shortness of 

 the month. Funeral work was the larg- 

 est item. On account of the Lenten 

 season, the next two months are not ex- 

 pected to be so good, but everyone will 

 be busy preparing for the Easter busi- 

 ness. 



Various Notes. 



The Flick Floral Co. had a special 

 sale of carnations March 4. This com- 

 pany has received a large shipment of 

 fancy baskets, flower holders and vases 

 from New York. 



A new geranium will be disseminated 

 by W. J. & M. S. Vesey. It is known 

 as Mrs. Vesey. It is of a beautiful 

 magenta color. A large shipment of 

 the young plants was sent to Houston, 

 Tex., last week, to be planted and de- 

 veloped for the convention of the So- 

 ciety of American Florists. This gera- 

 nium will be put on the market next 

 year. 



There will be no meeting of the Indi- 

 ana State Florists' Association this 

 month, but President W. J. Vesey, Jr., 

 says all the florists are making extra 

 efforts to have the April meeting at 

 Terre Haute an unusually good one. 

 This meeting being the last one before 

 Easter, Easter flowers, plants and nov- 

 elties will be discussed. 



S. S. Pennock, of the S. S. Pennock- 

 Meehan Co., Philadelphia, was a visitor
