era. Mr. Armstrong says there are only 

 three known plants of it in San Diego 

 and it is surely a beautiful thing. 

 Azalea saligna is now in flower, show- 

 ing it to be one of the finest. For a 

 long way around the estate, the land 

 belongs to Mr. Bridges, and when the 

 present alterations are finished, doubt- 

 less more of this will be planted in ac- 

 cordance with natural conditions. 

 Grand views of the ocean and surround- 

 ing country are to be had on all sides, 

 and the place is unique in that no one 

 else can look over it. Personally the 

 writer was greatly surprised with the 

 possibilities of this fine estate and will 

 be much disappointed if it does not be- 

 come the leading place in the country.

The Market. 



A few days before Easter found the 

 local florists, both wholesale and retail, 

 in the midst of what promised to be a 

 banner holiday rush. The shippers were 

 just finishing up on their long-distance 

 orders and the retailers were assembling 

 their stock in more or less elaborate 

 displays. The demand for cut flowers 

 for shipping was unusually heavy, caus- 

 ing prices to stiffen on certain items. 

 With the exception of lilies, the stock 

 situation leaves nothing to be desired, 

 there being an ample supply of other 

 plants and cut flowers for all require- 

 ments. 



In flowering plants, roses head the list, 

 and old-timers in the business here 

 say they never saw finer specimens, on 

 the whole, than are available this year, 

 the later date of Easter having made it 

 possible to have these splendidly flow- 

 ered. Many varieties go to make up 

 the assortment, but probably no one 

 variety is as largely represented as the 

 Dorothy Perkins. Tausendschoen and 

 Hiawatha are plentiful also, together 

 with many fine Baby Ramblers. French 

 hydrangeas are outclassed by the roses, 

 as far as quantity is concerned, but not 

 in quality. These plants are especially 

 fine, as are the rhododendrons. Azaleas 

 are not in heavy supply, but some firms 

 are featuring them extensively. With 

 plenty of plants of such excellent qual- 

 ity, it is hardly expected that the ab- 

 sence of lilies will cut down the volume 

 of Easter business to any great extent. 



Never was there a finer cut of roses 

 for Easter, according to all reports. 

 American Beauties are in their prime 

 and the same may be said of Bussell, 

 Ophelia, Columbia, Hadley, Ward and 

 the Killarneys. The demand for ship- 

 ping purposes early in the week was 

 sufficiently heavy to double prices by 

 the middle of the week. Local require-
