"Wlieii in doubt go to Murata," 

 seems to have been the idea during the 

 great scarcity of flowers caused by the 

 frost. This u])-to daie and long estab- 

 lished house lived up to its reputation, 

 handling large amounts of stock in 

 spite of the great scarcity. 



W. Armacost & Co. are still handling 

 immense cuts of roses, but not enough 

 for the largo demand, according to Man- 

 ager Williamson. Xew orchid houses 

 are under construction for this firm., at 

 Sawtelle. 



Wright 's Flower Shop has its usii.nl 

 well stocked appearance in spite of the 

 scarcity. A fine crop of indoor carna- 

 tions from the greenhouses helped ma- 

 terially. 



An account of the death of E. D. Stur-

Stock has been made exceedingly 

 scarce l)v a S])cll of cold weather. It 

 is st.atcd by the press that, for the last 

 thirty yenrs, San Francisco has not 

 known such a long run of frosty nights. 

 Outdoor stock has practically all been 

 frostbitten, marigolds and early sweet 

 pe.a vines being affected. The violet 

 crop is about one-third its normal size 

 for this time of the year. Tjcaves as 

 well as flowers have been blighted by 

 the frost and the cutting north winds. 

 As a result, violets are commanding 

 about three times the price they would 

 bring were the weather normal. There 

 is a normnl rose crop, but the great 

 shortage of other stock has caused .a run 

 on roses. This can be gauged from the 

 fact that roses are commanding dou- 

 ble the yirico they brought during the 

 Christmas season. This is true also of 

 carnations, which are scarce. There 

 are some orchids and lilies of the valley, 

 but few gardenias. A few daffodils are 

 arriving and there are freesias. Paper 

 White narcissi, jonquils, some early
