Mr. Weddle, of the Portland Rose 

 Nursery, said he grew a large stock of 

 perennials on his land at Lents and 

 found a ready sale for them. 



The Tonseth Floral Co. has found a 

 good demand for its stock of hydran- 

 geas. S. W. W. 



SEATTLE, 



The Market, 



The later reports on Easter indicate 

 a satisfactory trade. Of course, some 

 stores did not do all the business they 

 expected and some had an oversupply of 

 flowers, which remained unsold, but the 

 general verdict is that, compared with 

 recent years, the sales were more nu- 

 merous and the prices better. Lilies, 

 as usual, were the predominent feature 

 and the price of 25 cents per bloom pre- 

 vailed in most of the stores, though 

 some tried to catch a little extra trade 

 by advertising them at 50 cents a pot, 

 for inferior stock, carrying three flow- 

 ers. The retail florists have to compete 

 at these times with outsiders who jump 

 into the business, and whose methods 

 are generally detrimental to the good 

 name of any florist. Of these there 

 were the usual number and they all 

 seemed to be doing a lively business. 

 There was the usual supply of other 

 potted plants, except roses, which ap- 

 peared to be scarcer than in recent 

 years. The sale for those offered was 

 good, however, and hardly any were 

 left over. There was little bulbous 

 stock and few azaleas. Cut flowers 

 moved well and have continued to do 

 so since Easter. The supply in most 

 cases is about equal to the demand. 



Various Notes. 



The staff of the Hollywood Gardens 

 were taxed to the utmost to look after 

 the large crowds patronizing their store. 

 They had their usual large supply of 

 flowers. Baskets filled with various 

 plants were among their best sellers. 



Rosaia Bros, had one of the finest dis- 

 plays ever seen in Seattle and cleaned 

 up the greater part of their stock at 

 good prices. Notable among their plants 

 were some specimen Easter Greeting 

 pelargoniums, which retailed at $2.50 

 and $3. The larger part of their stock 

 was grown at Thomas and reflected 

 great credit on the growers. 



Mrs. L. W. McCoy, at her new loca- 

 tion on Second avenue, had a large in- 

 crease of business compared with re- 

 cent Easters, showing the wisdom of 

 having acquired a more prominent sit- 

 uation for her store. 



The Burns Floral Co. reports a prac- 

 tical clean-up of all Easter stock. 



The Orpheum Floral Co. had a taste- 

 fully arranged display in the windows 

 and did a lively business. Cinerarias 

 of the stellata varieties were among the 

 notable showings. 



The Harrington Co. had, as usual, a 

 high-class, selected stock and has no 

 complaints to make on the amount of 

 business done. 



The Woodlawn Flower Store, in its 

 restricted space, did a large amount of 

 business and had to get in additional 

 supplies, though starting with what 

 was considered a sufficient stock for all 

 requirements. 



Most of the carnation growers have 

 their stock all planted out and the re- 

 cent showery weather will prove bene- 

 ficial to the young plants. The bedding 

 season is in full blast and growers and 

 retailers are extremely busy. T. W.
