with the buyers. Snapdragon is still a 

 standard flower ia basket work. The 

 cut of outdoor gladioli leaves little to 

 be desired in the matter of quality. 



Boses are in light supply, but plenti- 

 ful enough for all needs. Columbia is 

 the most common just now, with 

 Ophelia and Butterfly coming along in 

 greater quantities. Baby roses are 

 common enough for the general demand 

 and this item has been freely used in 

 corsages of late. Russell and Hadley 

 are expected to increase within the next 

 fortnight. The cut of Ulrich Brunner 

 has slackened, although this variety is 

 still offered in a small way. Among 

 the long-stemmed items, Lilium rubrum, 

 monkshood and Shasta daisies may be 

 mentioned and, in medium length, calen- 

 dulas, perennial mums, early pompons 

 and asters. 



There is a real shortage of orchids, 

 while the cut of gardenias and steph- 

 anotis has been increasing. A gain has 

 has also been noted in bouvardia. Car- 

 nations are generally good now, al- 

 though the cut is light. 



Various Notes. 



The City Flower Shop used dahlias in 

 a water tank recently and this floating 

 flower attracted much attention from 

 passers-by. A fine showing of ferns has 

 been made by this shop of late. 



William Holmes, of the Hollywood 

 Gardens, is away on his vacation and 

 will spend at least a part of this on 

 Mount Rainier. Miss Wagner is back 

 at work after an enjoyable rest. Nov-

elty small baskets, with butterfly deco- 

 rations, the work of E. O. Peterson, are 

 being featured with good effect by this 

 shop. Pink roses, lavender and white 

 sweet peas and greens were used last 

 week to make a most effective casket 

 cover. 



C. T. Kipp, of the Spokane Florist 

 Ce., was a street visitor last week, cem- 

 ing over to attend the opening of "The 

 Wayfarer" at the university stadium. 

 He reports good business, considering 



the summer season, for that city and 

 says that Spokane growers will be pre- 

 pared to offer even better Laddie car- 

 nations this season than last. 



Summer gladioli in yellow and varie- 

 gated shades have been featured by the 

 Orpheum Floral Co. of late with good 

 effect. There has been a better de- 

 mand for small baskets.

 Co., has returned from his vacaticm ajid
