The Market. 



Sunshine the last ten days caused 

 stock to be more abundant. Business 

 has slumped, owing to the nearness 

 of Easter, but the dealers are cleaning 

 up fairly well each day. Pot plants and 

 bulbous stock are moving well. 

 Club Meeting. 



The Kentucky Florists' Association 

 held its regular monthly meeting m the 

 store of the Kunzman Floral Co. March 

 9 There was a large attendance and 

 after the members had inspected the en- 

 tire range, which was in splendid condi- 

 tion, with plenty of bulbous stock com- 

 ing on for Easter, the meeting was called 

 to order. Lively discussions took place, 

 which were of considerable interest to 

 the members. At the close of the busi- 

 ness meeting the members and their 

 wives were served with a delicious re- 

 past.

LEAF FROM EDIBLE FRUIT. 



Will you kindly tell me the name of 

 the plant from which came the leaf I 

 am sending von? The seed was sent by 

 a friend in California. The plants are 

 now about two feet high and are grow- 

 ing rapidly. F. C— Ind. 



The leaf sent is of the loquat, Erio- 

 botrya japonica. This is a most use- 

 ful friiit, being hardy in southern Cnli- 

 fornia, but needing the protection of a 

 greenhouse in the middle west. To bear 

 fruit it requires a large apace, such as 

 in a conservatory, but it is an attractive 

 plant when grown only for the foliage. 

 In California the fruit ripens in April 

 and when thoroughly ripe is delicious 

 in flavor. It is also used for making a 

 superior jelly. It is easily grown from 

 seed, which should be planted soon after 

 the fruit ripens, as it quickly loses its 

 germinating power if kept dry.
