Easter Business. 



Busiiu'ss for Easter was cspet-ially 

 large, but the total volume may not 

 come up to last year. Due to the un- 

 favorable weatlier, there was an ex- 

 treme shortage of sweet peas, violets 

 and lilies. Also the hot weather the 

 previous week forced in a great many 

 of the pot plants, such as tulips, hya- 

 cinths and daffodils, in advance. They 

 had been all placed in greenhouses, 

 timed for Easter, but the unexpected 

 hot weather forced them open and, con- 

 se«iuently, a great many of the plants 

 intended for Kaster were past their 

 prime. 



However, the hot spell of weather, 

 while being unfavoral>Ie for bulbous 

 stock, was favoral)le for lilies and 

 brought in a great many more plants 

 than otherwise would have come in. 

 Sweet peas, likewise, were forced in 

 large quantities on account of the warm 

 spell, but the cold, dark weather the 

 last week checked them, so tlie supply 

 was below the tlemand. 



There were plenty of daft'odils on the 

 market and also enough carnations and 

 roses to meet the demand. There was a 

 big demand, however, for short grades 

 of roses. Most of the trade made big 

 preparation for plant business and all 

 were stocked uj) (juite hea\ily. Hesi(h's 

 lilies and raml)lers, whicli were tlie prin- 

 cipal plants on the market, thert' were 

 a number of ])riiiiulas, cyclamens and 

 cinerarias on tlie market. I'.
