Prices are holding up well in the cut 

 flower market and there is no consider- 

 able surplus of anything. Boses are a 

 little lower than they were a few days 

 ago, whites being the slowest to move. 

 Short-stemmed stock sells at an aver- 

 age of $4, while other grades run from 

 $6 to $20, some fancies realizing a little 

 more, particularly Eussell and Hadley. 

 All colored roses are cleaned up with 

 ease. Growers have to insist on buy- 

 ers taking a fair percentage of whites 

 and in this way prevent a serious glut. 

 The weather has been particularly fa- 

 vorable for cut flower production and 

 growers report that crops timed for 

 Christmas are coming on too fast. We 

 have comparatively open, clear weather, 

 which is not favorable for retarding 

 flowers. 



Carnations are somewhat more ag- 

 gressive and make from $3 to $4 per 

 hundred, with some fancies at $5. The 

 quality now is strictly first-class. Sin- 

 gle violets sell better than doubles and 

 realize 25 cents per hundred more. 

 There still are good supplies of chrys- 

 anthemums and these make double the 

 prices of a fortnight ago. Paper White 

 narcissi are abundant. As yet only a 

 few Roman hyacinths have appeared. 

 Small lots of French Golden Spurs ap- 

 peared this week. Valley continues 

 high; the best realizes $8 per hundred. 

 Lilies are abundant and are inclined to 

 sag a little. 



Bachelor's buttons and yellow mar- 

 guerites sell well; so do snapdragons, 

 particularly the pink ones. Stevia is 

 a little druggy, while no one wants the 

 Gypsophila elegans offered. This week 

 there is quite a good demand for poin- 

 settias. Callas are arriving more abun- 

 dantly. Sweet peas are coming in more 

 freely and are of good quality. Some 

 pink bouvardias come in and sell mod- 

 erately well. Gardenias and cattleyas 

 are scarce. Calls for asparagus are 

 only moderate, that for A. plumosus be- 

 ing the best. 



The pot plant trade is extremely ac- 

 tive; the large specialists are already 

 well sold out. Quite a number of well 

 berried English hollies in tubs are to 

 be seen and the demand for Christmas 

 greenery of all kinds is stronger than 

 ever before. 



Various Notes. 



A special car of the Boston and 

 Worcester street railroad will leave 

 Park square, Boston, at 1 p. m., Decem- 

 ber 16, for the field day of the Garden- 

 ers' and Florists' Club at Framingham. 

 The establishments of Messrs. Goddard, 

 Nicholson, Nelson and Butterworth will 

 be inspected.
