well with the leader. There was a fine 

 supply of freesias, of the blue ribbon 

 quality. This is a flower that can be 

 used any place, being equally at home in 

 a funeral offering, a basket, a mixed box 

 or a bunch for the hospital. Sweet peas 

 were in the best supply they have been 

 this season. The varieties were varied 

 and the stems the best this season. 

 Bulbous stock is beginning to arrive in 

 good supply. Hyacinths, tulips and nar- 

 cissi, while not in heavy supply, were on 

 the market and cleaned up well. Easter 

 lilies are not plentiful and, at the pres- 

 ent price, the demand is in keeping with 

 the supply. 



Plants sold well. Cyclamens, primulas, 

 pans of hyacinths, tulips and freesias 

 had a splendid run. 



Smilax is now to be had and, while it 

 is in no way plentiful, in some of the 

 commission houses it can be had in al- 

 most any quantity desired. 



A Plant Kun. 



During the last three weeks all cut 

 stock has been scarce and naturally the 

 prices have been high. When a customer 

 bent on spending a certain amount could 

 not have his wants supplied with cut 

 flowers, a blooming plant would be sug- 

 gested, and in almost every case the sale 

 was made. In many cases the change 

 has been so satisfactory that when a 

 repeat order is wanted a suggestion by 

 the salesperson is unnecessary. 



The fact that a good blooming plant 

 will give more satisfaction in a sick 

 room or perhaps for some anniversary 

 is to be remembered. A plant often will 

 fill the bill as well as will cut flowers. 

 When its lasting qualities are consid- 

 ered, it sometimes becomes preferable. 

 Even pans of bulbous stock, although 

 they will not last much longer than cut 

 flowers, are selected for the reason that 

 there is something more natural about 

 them and they will give the invalid more 

 pleasure than cut stock. The public is 

 quick to learn these little things. Hos- 

 pitals are great centers of education. It 

 would surprise some of us to Vdow the 

 extent of floral education that is dis- 

 seminated in hospital wards. 



We may think that this is only a 

 changing fancy of the public, but there 

 is always a reason. The high prices of 

 cut flowers are among the principal rea-
