ST. LOUIS. 



The Market. 



The wliolcsalers had an exceedingly 

 good week, considering that Lent began 

 February 21. The bright weather dur- 

 ing the week caused large consignments 

 to come in daily, especially of violets. 

 These constituted a glut* and sold as low 

 as $2 per thousand, the extra blooms 

 bringing 35 cents per hundred; as a re- 

 sult thousands were sold to the largo 

 flower stores downtown and were dis- 

 posed of at 10 cents per bunch of twenty- 

 five. 



Kosps are in large demand, but they 

 continue to be scarce. It seems as 

 though all the rose growers are off crop 

 at the same time. Good blooms of Kil- 

 larney, Russell, Ward, Sunburst, Ophelia 

 and Beauty sell at sight, at top prices. 

 Carnations have been holding their own, 

 the jiricps during the latter part of the 

 week dropping to $3 for the choice 

 blooms. For the inferior grades $2 was 

 asked. Of these the supply has been 

 large, but the best have cleaned up al- 

 most daily. Tlie Encliantrcss varieties 

 continue in the majority. In reds some 

 excellent Beacons are seen, and in the 

 dark pinks Ward sells well. 



There now are plenty of Easter lilies 

 and carllas, which experience a splendid 

 call at $10 per hundred. Some excellent 

 valley was seen last week, and it prom- 

 ises to be in good supply from now on. 

 There is almost a glut of sweet peas and 

 only the choice butterfly blooms have the 

 call and demand any price. The short, 

 common varieties sell slowly at not more 

 than 25 cents per hundred. The fancy, 

 long-stemmed peas make 75 cents to $1. 



Bulbous stock is coming in heavily; 

 large quantities of tulips, jonquils. Paper 

 Whites and freesias are seen daily at 

 the various wholesale establisliments. 

 In greens asparagus is extremely scarce, 

 both pliimosus and Sprengeri; of other 

 greens the supply is good and tlio de- 

 mand is large. 



Association Meeting. 



The meeting of the Retail Florists' 

 Association was held February 19 at the 

 Mission Inn Garden. The attendance 

 was good and a great deal of interest 

 was manifested in the proceedings. 



President Young opened the meeting,
