 Freesias. Best colors for the commercial grower. Very tall, 

 wiry stems. Flowers large and open; from delicate pink to 

 brilliant red. It is an unusually good keeper.

A successful gladiolus show was held

 of the Pacific Coast Horticultural So-

 variety. Kichard Diener, of Kentfield,

The Market. 



Better sales along nearly all lines 

 have been noticed. The recent rush of 

 funeral work cleaned out most stores. 

 For several weeks there has been an 

 especially good telegraph business in 

 flowers to be delivered to vacation 

 parties bound for Alaska. 



The first local chrysanthemums of the 

 season have arrived, but this stock was 

 hardly marketable and served only as a 

 novel window display. Asters are now 

 being offered in profusion and the prices 

 named by the growers allow the trade to 

 sell stock quickly at a good profit. 



Everywhere the cut of roses is in- 

 creasing and a number of new varieties 

 will be offered by local growers this 

 season. A plentiful supply of orchids 

 is still to be had, although the cut has 

 lessened a little and fewer shipping 

 orders are being attended to. The local 

 growers are again able to take care of 

 the demand for gardenias. 



Among the long-stemmed flowers, gla- 

 dioli and snapdragons continue to be 

 the leaders. Scotch broom of the sec- 

 ond growth is also being offered. Sev- 

 eral growers are offering some unusually 

 long-stemmed Shasta daisies, which are 

 used freely in baskets. 



Carnations show some improvement, 

 but still leave much to be desired as to 

 keeping qualities; the reds are espe- 

 cially liable to wilt early. Sweet peas 

 hold up fairly well and some new cream 

 shades have been featured in several oif 

 the stores. 



Water lilies continue to be in favor 

 for decorations and the heavy cut is 

 moving out nicely at present prices. 

 Lilium rubrum has also been popular 

 and has been used in some of the more 

 elaborate funeral pieces. 



Ferns, geraniums, asters and a few 

 fuchsias have formed the main items in 

 recent sales of potted plants, although 

 several stores have good-sized stocks of 

 cockscomb as well. The asters are the 

 newest on this list and for this reason 

 have caught the buyers' eyes most, but
