has had a remarkably busy one. A mag- 

 nificent plant of Erica melanthera, some 

 six feet high and well proportioned, 

 caused considerable attention to be 

 given his window last week. It was 

 grown by G. Prechtl at his Montebello 

 nursery. 



C. J. Groen reports an excellent sea- 

 son 's business. He cleaned up well on 

 everything, both at Christmas and New 

 Year 's. 



Douglas iFraser, of R. G. Fraser & 

 Son, of Pasadena, Cal., has been unable 

 to attend to business, owing to a severe 

 cold, but Mr. Fraser, Sr., says he is 

 much better and hopes to get into har- 

 ness again this week. H. R. R. 



SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. 



The Market. 



Spring flowers are coining into the 

 market. The unusually lieavy rainfall 

 and the absence of severe frosts have 

 combined to bring in quantities of 

 Chinese lilies, Paper White narcissi and 

 a few early outdoor daffodils. Violets 

 are good and are now ]ilcntiful. Free- 

 sias are coming in well from tlie grow- 

 ers. There arc plenty of carnations and 

 8ome lilies of the valley. Short-stemmed 

 roses are not plentiful, though some of 

 the growers report that they have good 

 stocks of tlieiii. Long-steniniod rosee 

 are more abundant, but the price pre- 

 vents them from moving as rapidly as 

 the short-stemmed roses. There is much 

 Scotch heather in the market and it is 

 in demand for baskets and other deco- 

 rative purposes. A few mums are to be 

 found, but they are no longer a factor 

 in the market. Orchids are fairly plen- 

 tiful and the cheaper varieties of spring 

 flowers, such as marigolds, are coming 

 in well. Almond blossoms, the first of 

 the fruit tree sprays, are just coming in. 



Various Notes. 



Members of the Retail Florists' As- 

 sociation of San Francisco, which means 

 practically the entire retail trade, in- 

 augurated the Sunday closing move- 

 ment January 9. F. C. Jaeger & Son,, 

 determined to start the New Year with 

 the new departure, closed all day Sun- 

 day, January 2, and they are enthus-

 Everything was practically cleaned out

 all members of the force felt recuper-

 zeal Monday morning. 



Now that the holidays are over, the
