closed at $6 to $8, and this week $8 

 is being asked, witli somewhat higher 

 prices probable later in the week. 



There is no change in violets, 50 

 cents to $1 being quoted prices. These 

 will be advanced later in the week. 

 Sweet peas are selling well; some short- 

 stemmed flowers go as low as 50 cents 

 to $1, but good flowers make $2.50 to 

 $3. Cut Easter lilies and calla lilies 

 remain about the same. Some good 

 formosum lilies are offered on long 

 stems. 



A generous supply of bulbous mate- 

 rial is coming in. Fancy narcissi, like 

 King Alfred, Silver Spur, Van Waver- 

 en's Giant and Victoria, sell well, 

 while Golden Spur and the coarse 

 Double Von Sion arc druggy. Darwin 

 tulips sell well, frecsias and Paper 

 Whites poorly. Pansies are abundant 

 and fine in quality. Marguerites are 

 seen in greater abiin(lan<'e and bring 

 $1 to $4 per hundred, according to 

 quality. 



For lily of the valley the demand is 

 lacking. Cattleyas are abundant. 

 Trianse is passing and most of the 

 flowers now coming in are of Schroe- 

 derse. There are good supplies of cym- 

 bidiums, dendrobes and other season- 

 able orchids. 



Pot plant trade is now remarkably 

 brisk and is being ]>ushed by all the 

 retailers more than ever before. Lilies 

 are evidently in abundant supply and 

 the quality generally is good. Some of 

 the giganteums^ however, are dwarf. 

 Roses are available in large numbers, 

 not only ramblers but also hybrid teas, 

 polyanthas and hybrid perpetuals. 

 Tausendschoen remains far the most 

 popular pot rose. The French hydran- 

 geas are abundant and well flowered; 

 so are genistas and ericas. Large 

 quantities of tulij)s, narcissi and hya- 

 cinths in pans are offered, also prim- 

 ulas, cyclamens, cinerarias, polyanthus, 

 geraniums, bougainvilleas and acacias. 

 So warm has the weather been that 

 plants have needed little wrapping. 

 Club Meeting. 



There was an excellent attendance 

 March 15 at the meeting of the Gar- 

 deners' and Florists' Club, over 100 

 members being present. A. K. Rogers 

 reported that he had attended a meeting 

 at the State House regarding a big 

 union meeting of agricultural and allied 

 bodies, which would probably be held 

 next winter in Mechanics building. 

 The president appointed Messrs. Downs, 

 Ryan and Burke a committee to repre- 

 sent the club. The question of a dinner 

 to visitors at the spring show came up 

 and Messrs. Kennedy, Mcthven and
