gardenias are now coming in plentifully. 

 The rose crop has been held back for 



Easter. . ,, , . . 



The Growers' Cooperative Market is 

 sold out every morning, in spite of the 

 large amount of stock that is daily 

 brought to it. ... 



Enomoto & Co. are specializing in 

 eucalyptus boughs, some with buds and 

 others with pods. Some highly orna- 

 mental cyperus, with cones about the 

 size of a hazelnut, are also being han- 

 dled by this firm. They have received 

 some shipments of mats from Japan. 



The United Flower & Supply Co. is 

 making heavy cuttings of outdoor Dar- 

 win tulips. The stems are long and the 

 colors fine. 



Domoto Bros, made an enormous 

 horseshoe of roses and maidenhair for 

 the opening of the new ofiaces of the 

 Toyo Kisen Kaisha, the transpacific 

 steamship line. 



Fred Bertrand has sold his flower shop 

 in the Palace hotel to Miss Delfina 

 Eiley. Some seven years ago Miss Eiley 

 was with Julius Eppstein and she is well 

 remembered by the trade. One of the 

 new proprietress' first acts was to 

 change the appearance of the attractive 

 store by giving it a novel effect with 

 draperies. Against a heavy, plush back- 

 ground, of a neutral, tan color, Miss 

 Riley arranged masses of ornamental 

 fruit blossoms and other spring flowers. 

 Mr. Bertrand says that he is preparing 

 to branch out, but is not ready to make 

 an announcement. The sale took place 



April 1. ^ .^ 



Brown & Kennedy say that, despite 

 the Lenten season, they have been kept 

 busy by general work. 



Pelicano, Rossi & Co. are preparing 

 to handle the floral decorations for the 

 banquet to be given Marshal JofEre at 

 the Palace hotel. It will be a big affair 

 and .all the decorating will be done with 

 spring flowers. 



Podesta & Baldocchi had the decorat- 

 ing work for the luncheon, at the Fair- 

 mont hotel, to Mary Garden and the 

 other stars of the Chicago Grand Opera 

 Co. There was one large tabic, with 

 lavish decorations of spring flowers. 



F. C. Jaeger & Son report an influx of 

 wedding orders as a result of their 

 bride's window display, which is still 

 on exhibition. One of the prettiest 

 features is a bridesmaid's pink muff
