common grower's expression. The lack 

 of really warm weather so far (our high- 

 est of the year has been 75 degrees) 

 keeps the quality of carnations first- 

 class. Boses are moving better in sym- 

 pathy with carnations. Among varie- 

 ties of extra fine quality now are Fran- 

 cis Scott Key, Milady, Maryland, Colum- 

 bia, Ophelia, Double White Killarney, 

 Hadley, Russell and Miller. There are 

 still small lots of locally grown double 

 violets. Sweet peas are of excellent 

 quality. Some select flowers realize $3, 

 but the bulk go at $1 to $2 per hun- 

 dred. 



There is a fair supply of both callas 

 and lilies, but the demand for them is 

 not robust. Snapdragons also go rather 

 slowly. Daffodils are nearing the end 

 and tulips are in short supply. Outdoor- 

 grown Poeticus ornatus is coming in. 

 Of Spanish iris there is a good supply, 

 but the demand is somewhat weak. 

 Calendulas, myosotis, anemones, poly- 

 anthus, Gypsophila elegans and other 

 miscellaneous flowers are arriving in 

 fair quantity. Cut Lilium candidum 

 which did not bloom in time for Easter 

 meets with a poor sale now. Quite a 

 little delphinium still comes in. There 

 is now a good supply of Cattleya Mos- 

 sisB and there are small lots of gar- 

 denias. Greenery only sells moderately. 



Various Notes. 



Mothers' day is the principal topic in 

 flower circles at present. It looks as 

 though carnations would be forced up 

 in price to a rather dangerous point at 

 the expense of other flowers, and it be- 

 hooves everyone to insist on white flow- 

 ers and bright flowers rather than white 

 and colored carnations. Those who in 

 the past would willingly pay 10 cents 

 for a single carnation will naturally 

 hesitate about paying 25 cents for the 

 same flower. If roses, sweet peas, bulb- 

 ous flowers, etc., were included, it would 

 be far better for business in general. 

 One prominent wholesale firm here con- 

 siders the present date of Mothers' day 

 a poor one, and thinks the middle of 

 June, with flowers more abundant, 

 would be a vastly better date for it, 

 but would the public favor a change 

 to a dat* coming so soon after Memorial
