The show of California wild flowers 

 at Exposition park has been particularly 

 good during the last few weeks and 

 many thousands of people have visited 

 the park. Theodore Payne, who has 

 charge of this work, is there on Sun- 

 days to answer questions and give ad- 

 vice. H. R. Richards. 



SAN FBANCISCO. 



The Market. 



Market conditions were satisfactory 

 last week. The closing of the city 

 schools created a large demand for 

 flowers for commencements; a large 

 number of weddings absorbed a great 

 many more and funeral work was quite 

 active, all of which, in addition to a 

 liberal quantity of decorative work for 

 other functions, and a good counter 

 trade, cleaned up nearly everything 

 without much difficulty. The quality 

 of the present offerings is good. Out- 

 door stock is in excellent shape, owing 

 to favorable climatic conditions in prac- 

 tically all the growing sections that 

 supply this market. The recent severe 

 winds did slight damage in certain 

 neighborhoods, but its effect was not 

 far-reaching. 



Quantities of small stuff, such as 

 statice, gypsophilas, coreopsis, mari- 

 golds, etc., are being used to good ad- 

 vantage. Outdoor gladioli are plenti- 

 ful and find a good derpand. Dahlias 

 are coming in nicely. Some of the fin- 

 est zinnias ever seen here are arriving. 



My Winter Orchid-flowering 



SWEET PEAS 



were the besjt paying crop with many thousands of growers who have purchased 

 my seed in time. They have received the highest awards at the National Flower 

 Show in Philadelphia and in New York, the Gold Medal of Honor at San Fran- 

 cisco, the Gold Medal in San Diego World's Fair. 



My new price list of Winter Orchid-flewering; Sweet Pea Seed has 

 been mailed. If you have not received a copy, send postal for it. Part of new 

 crop will be ready early in July. I am the originator of every Winter Orchid 

 Sweet Pea but one, which was ever seen or shown.

They have stems two feet long and well 

 formed flowers, some as large as dah- 

 lias. Sweet peas are fine and have a 

 good sale. The same may be said of 

 carnations. The rose situation is all 

 that can be desired; there is plenty of 

 stock and enough demand to absorb it. 

 Russell shows exceptionally fine quality 

 and it maintains its popularity well. 

 Hadley, Ophelia, Prima Donna, George 

 Elger, Irish Elegance and Cecile Brun- 

 ner also are favorites. Potted stock is 

 not overplentiful, although there still 

 are many fine French hydrangeas, a 

 fair supply of begonias and some 

 spiraeas. Pansies are having a splendid 

 run in basket arrangements. The sup- 

 ply of orchids barely meets the require- 

 ments of the trade. 



Horticultural Society Meeting. 



The attendance at the monthly meet-

 Society on the evening of June 3 .was 

 rather light, as several members were 

 out of town. On behalf of the field day 

 committee, D. Raymond reported a

 place at San Rafael and the Marin 

 flower show in that city. He announced 

 that the only other field dav in view is 

 a visit to the plant of the Garden City 

 Pottery Co., at San Jose, in Septem- 

 ber. The picnic committee announced 

 that it will make its final report at the 

 next meeting. For the committee ap- 

 pointed at the last meeting to confer 

 with exposition officials regarding 

 awards for exhibits, which have not 

 been received by certain members, H. 

 Plath stated that representatives of 

 the exposition have promised to take 

 up the matter of prizes for horticul- 

 tural exhibits in Julv.
