BURLINGTON WILLOW WARE SHOPS, Burlington, Iowa. 



Carnations are not overplentiful, but 

 drag at $4 to $8. Short-stemmed stock 

 is still noticeable, but flower heads gen- 

 erally are of good size. 



Tlie supply of orchids is not large, 

 but they do not seem to meet with ready 

 sale at $35 to $150 per hundred. Oncid- 

 iums, at $4 to $8 per hundred, also 

 are not active in their movement. Lily 

 of the valley is in fair supply at $5 to 

 $12 per hundred sprays. Easter lilies 

 are a little more plentiful, but move 

 slowly at prices asked, as do rubrums. 

 A few short-stemmed gardenias are com- 

 ing in. 



The supply of sweet peas is not large, 

 due to the long spell of dark weather, 

 which has caused bud-dropping to a con- 

 siderable extent. The price range is $2 

 to $3 per hundred sprays. Chrysanthe- 

 mums continue to arrive, with Seidewitz 

 the most prominent variety; the demand 

 for them is light, and much stock 

 stales; fresh flowers bring as much as 

 $6 per dozen, and others scale down to 

 $3. Quantities of singles and pompons 

 arrive with the others and meet a fair 

 demand. 



There is a moderate supply of miscel- 

 laneous flowers, including pansies, calen- 

 dulas, bouvardias, snapdragons, daisies 

 and stevia. Bulbous flowers, chiefly 

 Paper White and Soleil d'Or narcissi, 

 are arriving in increased quantity, but 

 do not meet with much demand. 

 Amaryllis is taken as a subject for 

 window display, as also is strelitzia.

with foliage distinct from the usual 

 type, which Mr. Miller calls the "Oak 

 Leaf" variety. Ericas, chiefly of the 

 melanthera variety, are prominent, 

 there being thousands of plants in full 

 flower. A bench or two of a variety 

 with deep lavender flowers is particu- 

 larly interesting. Begonias Melior and 

 Cincinnati are wonderfully well finished.
