There has been a decided improve- 

 ment to report in the quality of carna- 

 tions arriving, especially in Enchantress. 

 A novelty in local shops last week was 

 the first showing of Paper White nar- 

 cissi. Just at present the price on these 

 is too high for a big general sale, al- 

 though there was enough stock for such 

 a demand. 



Lily of the valley, bouvardias and 

 gardenias are all short of the demand, 

 and there is no improvement in the 

 orchid cuts. Cattleyas have been used 

 prominently in a number of recent wed- 

 dings and at elaborate luncheons. 



Potted plants have been becoming 

 more popular lately, undoubtedly the re- 

 sult of the passing of outdoor offerings 

 in most sections of the northwest.

Various Notes. 



One of the Seattle florists produced a 

 Thanksgiving day window which at- 

 tracted many pedestrians. A table pre- 

 pared for the "turkey day" dinner was 



arranged about a large floral center- 

 piece and the window was modeled to 

 look like a dining room. Tlie white 

 table linen, a white polar bear rug and 

 vases of white mums helped to carry 

 out tlic winter effect.
