A SOLID CARLOAD OF GREEN 

 HYACINTH STAKES 



Ever hear of so many at one time? 



You wouldn't, of course, if we had not for years 

 maintained the lowest price in the country. 



Size 1000 10,000 25,000 



5-inch $0.75 $0.65 $0.55 



12-inch 1.75 1.60 1.45 



18-inch 2.50 2.25 2.10 



We sug-g-est using the 18-inch size. Easter being 

 late, you will probably have warm weather and 

 consequently longer stock.

The Market. 



The shortage of flowers in this mar- 

 ket continues. The demand at the 

 present time far exceeds the supply, 

 both in roses and carnations. Business 

 with the majority of local florists seems 

 to be fairly good and the demand on 

 the growers and wholesalers seems to be 

 far in excess of the supply. It is quite 

 certain that this condition will last for 

 the next few weeks, especially as long 

 as the dark, dreary weather continues. 

 Carnations are being received in fair 

 quantities, although there are not 

 enough to take care of the demand. 

 Roses are likewise short. The varieties 

 received are White Ophelia, Premier, 

 Columbia, Pilgrim, Crusader and White 

 Killarney. American Beauty roses are 

 not so plentiful as they have been. The 

 demand for sweet peas and violets has 

 been good during the last week. 



Calendulas, yellow daisies and free- 

 sias are arriving in small quantities and 

 move rapidly. The demand, however, 

 for these flowers far exceeds the supply 

 at the present time. The quality is ex- 

 ceptionally fine. Lilies are also scarce. 

 The only thing that seems to be 

 plentiful at the present time in this 

 market is greens. There seems to be 

 sufBcient greens of all kinds, such as 

 plumosus, Sprengeri, coontie leaves, leu- 

 cothoe sprays, Mexican ivy, smilax and 

 ferns, to take care of the demand. Busi- 

 ness so far this year is holding its own 

 with that of las* January. 



Various Notes. 



The new heating plant of the Pitts- 

 burgh Cut Flower Co. is in full opera- 

 tion and is now known to be one of the 

 most modern-equipped power plants. 

 The firm is also making a few additions 

 to its city store by putting a mezzanine 

 floor across the rear of the present 

 store. This will give the company addi- 

 tional space to take care of the rapidly 

 growing supply business. H. J. H. 



Atlanta, Oa. — Elmo Moore has been 

 growing flowers for the market for sev- 

 eral years on a small scale. He now has 

 a fine lot of dahlias and mums. He also 

 grows Paper White narcissi.
