but no real shortage is anticipated, espe- 

 cially in view of the enormous supply 

 of rose plants. Callas are particularly 

 fine, the yellow variety being more in 

 evidence than ever before. In rambler 

 roses the pink varieties hold supremacy, 

 although the crimson and pure white 

 varieties are much in evidence. Dorothy 

 Perkins appears in wonderful crosses, 

 arches, baskets and other forms, well 

 done. Tausendschon also makes a fine 

 showing. The rose market generally is 

 in good condition. Some extra fine stock 

 can be had. The Easter cut of American 

 Beauties is about the best ever, there 

 being many perfect flowers with 10-foot 

 stems. Frau Karl Druschki made its ap- 

 pearance. Cecile Brunner roses are plenti- 

 ful but continue to experience a good de- 

 mand. Ophelia, Klllarney and Sunburst 

 show up well. 



There is some exceptionally fine Span- 

 ish iris right for Easter. More French 

 hydrangeas are offered this year than 

 formerly and they are popular. Some 

 rhododendrons appear, but most of them 

 bloomed too early. The supply of 

 spiraeas is rather limited and azaleas 

 are scarce. Many herbaceous peonies 

 still are to be had and much hawthorn 

 is being used. Miscellaneous stock, such 

 as daisies, mignonette, snapdragons, 

 pansies, forget-me-nots, etc., is sufficient 

 for demands. Many wild flowers, prin- 

 cipally poppies, are used, and snowballs 

 are plentiful. Sweet peas are available 

 in quantity, but the quality does not 

 average well, really good stock being 

 scarce. 



Some nice valley appears, but the sup- 

 ply is rather limited. Orchids are in 

 great variety and plentiful. There is a

Various Notes. 



Last week the writer had the pleasure 

 of visiting the greenhouses of E. James, 

 on the Foothill boulevard, in Oakland, 

 and found the houses in excellent condi- 

 tion. One house, devoted to Dorothy 

 Perkins plants, was a wonderful sight, 

 with crosses, arches and baskets, all inst 

 right. The house of Tausendschon was 

 equally fine, the plants appearing in 

 many shapes, including fans and umbrel- 

 las. This year Mr. James has quite a 

 number of Hiawatha ramblers. He had 

 not grown this variety for several years, 

 but he says there seems to be a re- 

 newed demand for it. A nice lot of 

 bougainvilleas were heavily flowered 

 and all that could be desired. Mr. James 

 practically supplies the San Francisco 

 market with rambler roses, and he ad- 

 mitted that it would be a big job to ship 

 the entire output in four days. 



Upon his return from his eastern trip 

 A. J. Kossi, of Pelicano, Rossi & Co., said 

 at no place that he visited did he see as 

 fine stock for Easter as here. 



G. Poulos brought in a nice lot of 

 callas from his place at Colma, where he
