The phenomenal cold weather has 

 given way to tempestuous spring 

 weather. Heavy showers are now alter- 

 nating with a little sunshine and, as 

 the weather has become comparatively 

 warm, stock is coming in better. A 

 week of warm sunshine will almost re- 

 store things to a normal condition, al- 

 though the violets and the early sweet 

 peas will not yield the usual crop. Un- 

 fortunately, there has not been enough 

 stock to take care of the St. Valentine's 

 day shipping orders, although the milder 

 weather came in time to make it pos- 

 sible to fill some of them satisfactorily. 

 Outside daffodils are now fairly plenti- 

 ful, although the stems are somewhat 

 shorter than usual, owing to weather 

 conditions during their early growth. 

 Roses are plentiful and will soon be in 

 even greater abundance. Carnations 

 are still somewhat scarce. The first 

 Easter lilies are just in and the crop 

 will continue to increase until Easter. 

 There are a good many freesias and a 

 fair supply of Chinese lilies, cut and 

 potted, potted hyacinths and tulips. 

 Acacia sprays are becoming more plen- 

 tiful and there are a few more almond 

 and pear sprays, with an increasing 

 amount of flowering eucalyptus, both 

 red and pink. Greens are plentiful, es- 

 pecially asparagus, which is reason- 

 able in price considering the season. 

 There are plenty of cinerarias and cycla- 

 mens in pots. Orchids are comparatively 

 plentiful, but there is still a shortage of 

 gardenias and lilies of the valley.
