There was some coniplaint iiiiiong the 

 retailors tliat xiolcts wort' not moving 

 as well as tlioy luifjlit. Orchids are more 

 plentiful, and this is another flower 

 that is not movinj; as well as some 

 would like, liulhons stock is becoming 

 more jileiitiful each day. Some of the 

 finest freesias e\er seen on this market 

 are to be had, .-is ;ire .-ilso hyacinths. 

 There is ;i fair sii]i]ily of miscellaneous 

 stock and a good supply of blooming 

 plants, such as cyclamens and prim- 

 roses. p]aster lilies arc in better su])ply 

 and callas continue scarce. There are 

 plenty of green goods of all kinds. The 

 market cleans up fairly well each day. 



Some Spring Windows. 



February 4, the writer took a stroll 

 up Charles street in quest of news for 

 this column. The day was spring-like, 

 and overcoats were being carried on the 

 arm; in fact, spring was in the air and 

 as one looked at the florists' windows 

 along the street he realized that it was 

 also in the spirit of the florists. Spring 

 flowers were prominent in every win- 

 dow, and not the usual spring flowers 

 that we are all so familiar with, such 

 as bulbous stock. For instance, Samuel 

 Feast & Sons had for a centerpiece an 

 immense basket of California-grown 

 heather. I had no idea that such a beau- 

 tiful basket could be arranged solely of 

 this flower, which is becoming so useful, 

 for it can be used to splendid advantage 

 in funeral work. Then there were fine 

 specimens of cyclamens and primroses, 

 with baskets of hyacinths and other 

 bulbous stock. It was a fine window 

 and one that attracted a good deal of 

 attention. Mrs. Hill said she had never 

 seen business better. To the question 

 as to what was the outlook for Lent, 

 her reply was that the florists would 

 never notice it. Then she became a 

 little reminiscent and said she remem- 

 bered the time when she took two 

 weeks' vacation to visit cities like 

 Philadelphia, Boston and New York, 

 during Lent, just to keep in touch with

the trade. That, she said, -was a time 

 when the business was in a large meas- 

 ure dependent upon the church and 

 church people. Therefore Lent was dull 

 in those days, but now the business has 

 become so general that this poriorl is 

 not considered a factor any more.
