Produces from 40 to 50 flowers on a spike, the individual flowers from 2X in. to 3 in. across; grows 

 3)4 ft. to 4 ft. high, the flowers a beautiful deep red, with pure white throat. 



It is a perpetual flowering variety and at Ghristmas we sold the cut flowers at $2.50 per dozen. The 

 ^wers are fine keepers, lasting from 7 to 10 days in water when cut, and it is a magnificent herbaceous 

 piant for the border.

— "rrt"., " The Market. V; 



Market conditions during .the. "Tlit . 

 two weeks remained about normal) wwh 

 a good supply of all seasonable flowers 

 and potted plants, excepting ferns^ 

 which are. rather scarce. Dealers in 

 bedding stock are doing a large busi- 

 ness on account of the suburbanites 

 getting theif ^flower gardens in shape. 

 Business on the ' whole is all that could 

 be desired. 



Florists all affirm in glowing terms 

 that business on Mothers' day exceeded 

 any previous year 's business by a large 

 margin. Carnations were the favorite 

 sellers, although a great many roses 

 and other flowers were sold for this 

 occasion. The people must be taught 

 that Mothers' day is not strictly a car- 

 nation day, but that all flowers are 

 equally appropriate. 



Various Notes. 



Chappell's Flower Shop reports a 

 good business and the sales for Moth- 

 ers' day far exceeded those of any 

 previous year. 



Lubliner's new store opened April 1. 

 Mr. Strausse, the manager, reports 

 business more than satisfactory. Many 

 compliments are received for their 

 beautiful window decorations. The win- 

 dow is one of the finest and largest in 

 the city. 



Clarke Bros, have a fine display of 

 gladioli and potted hydrangeas this 

 week. Gladioli and snapdragons, al- 

 though of good quality, are moving 

 slowly. 



Orowers are holding back their stock 

 as much as possible for Decoration day, 

 as it is a foregone conclusion that busi- 

 ness for that day will be enormous. 



It is to be regretted that some of 

 the flower stores remain open all day 

 Sunday. There seems to be no good 

 reason why they sl^ould not close at 

 least half a day. Their funeral work 

 and mail orders could all be taken care 

 of by noon. The amount of business 

 done during the week should be suffi- 

 cient to make it unnecessary for the 

 stores to remain open all day Sunday.
