slowly, fancy stock solliiifx best. Tulips 

 are slow. The supply of Darwins is 

 larger and prices are accordingly some- 

 what lower. Poeticus is near the end 

 of its season, as are freesias. Both 

 items move slowly. Eainbow freesias, 

 however, sell fairly well. Good lilies 

 are not plentiful. Callas also are in 

 small supply and do not figure much in 

 the market. The supply of orchids is 

 sufficient to meet a mediocre demand. 

 Violets are plentiful and sell fairly well. 

 Sweet peas also are in ample supply. 

 There arc not many calendulas and they 

 move fairly well. Colored snapdragons 

 sell well, while the white variety moves 

 slowly. 



Although greens are still scarce, larger 

 quantities of plumosus, Sprengeri and 

 adiantum now arrive. 



New Wholesale Florists. 



A new wholesale cut flower house will 

 be opened April 2 in the Atlas block, 

 Room 218, by D. E. Freres and R. J. 

 Windier. Mr. Freres has been in the 

 commission flower business for eighteen 

 years, being in business for himself the 

 last nine. Mr. Windier was formerly in 

 the business in St. Louis. He now oper- 

 ates the greenhouses in Rogers Park 

 formerly owned by Adam Zander. Both 

 men are thoroughly experienced and 

 well qualified for their new under- 

 taking. 



Easter Prospects. 



The market is confident that the 

 Easter business will break records, as 

 the early orders are unusually heavy, 

 the Monday morning mail of many 



liouses having been the largest ever re- 

 ceived two weeks ahead of Easter. 



Tliere is agreement that there will be 

 plenty of short and medium lilies and 

 that long lilies will be much less abun- 

 dant. 



Some wholesalers say there will be 

 plenty of roses and no great abundance 

 of carnations, but others believe a few 

 days of warm, bright weather, such as 

 are due anytime now, will rush the rose 

 crops off and bring out the carnations. 

 The crops certainly advanced rapidly 

 under the influence of three spring days 

 last week.
