they believe that anything retailing 

 under $3 will sell rapidly. Potted hy- 

 drangeas are in larger supply and their 

 quality is good. There is a heavier 

 showing of primroses and the colored 

 tulips continue in popular favor. There 

 are a few cyclamens in the market, 

 but their best season is over, while 

 hyacinths are not selling heavily. Ferns 

 are selling steadily, and those shops 

 located in the residence sections of the 

 <;ity note good sales of fern balls for 

 porch hangings. 



Florists handling gladiolus and 

 dahlia bulbs have been making some 

 fine displays, although it is noted that 

 buyers are showing a preference for 

 the brighter shades of both flowers. 

 There is no real activity in bedding 

 stock, but growers have been preparing 

 for a good season and have consid- 

 erable stock ready for shipment. 



The cut of roses shows some increase. 

 Orchids are still scarce and violets 

 clean up easily. There is a larger de- 

 mand for short-stemmed roses than can 

 be conveniently supplied, as corsages 

 have been among the heavy sellers of 

 late. The other spring flowers are plen- 

 tiful, and sell fairly well. 

 Various Notes. 



Harry Crouch, of the Woodlawn 

 Flower Shop, spent the early part of 

 last week in Victoria, being a delegate 

 from the local club to the northwestern 

 convention of International Rotary 

 Clul)s. Thomas Ijuke, of Smith's 

 F'lower Shop. Portland, was another 

 florist expected to attend this session. 



McCoy's have taken over the store 

 Tooni adjoining that section of the Rai- 

 nier building occu]iiod ])y their flower 

 shop during the foregoing year and 

 one-half and this firm has enlarged its 

 quarters. This gives the store two fine 

 show windows, in which a display of 

 roses was featured last week. A heav- 

 ier cut of carnations is noted at the 

 greenliouses. 



An Easter window, developed by the 

 Woodlawn Flower Shop, attracted gen- 

 eral attention. A box in the shape of 

 an egg was placed upon a raised plat- 

 form in the center of the window and 

 ■was arranged as a brooder room for a 

 e^roup of fluffy, baby chicks. The open- 

 ing of the box was jagged in order to 

 make it resemble a crack in the egg 

 shell. A portion of the display space 

 was arranged for the chicks to run in 

 and various suggestions on how to use 

 flowers effectively as Easter gifts were 

 imade. This window has already secured 

 advance orders. The card calling atten-
