and flowering plants, Mrs. Brown states 

 that she will carry seeds and fruit trees. 

 She is now in a position to accept orders. 

 M. Donioto, of Domoto Bros., says that 

 Easter lilies are not up to the usual 

 standard. This is because all the bulbs 

 in Japan suffered from heavy rains and 

 excessive heat. As a result, all kinds 

 of Japanese bulbs are somewhat weaker 

 than usual. "All growers are experi- 

 encing this condition," said Mr. 

 Domoto. The Domoto Bros, are showing 

 the earliest Tausendschoen potted 

 roses, and they are cutting many roses 

 as well as large crops of tulips, includ- 

 ing Darwin, Pride of Holland, Clara 

 Butt and Salmon King. 



The Growers' Floral Co. is fortunate 

 in having a large crop of didiscus at a 

 time when this flower is becoming popu- 

 lar for decorative work. According to 

 this firm, didiscus was brought from 

 Australia some thirty-five years ago, 

 was cultivated for a time and was then 

 allowed to lapse. Some four years ago, 

 it was again cultivated and has now won 

 favor. The Growers' Floral Co. has 

 been cultivating this 5-petaled helio- 

 trope blue mass of tiny blooms that 

 travels remarkably well and revives in 

 water with surprising vitality. A mem- 

 ber of the Charles C. Navlet Co. stated 

 that there is a marked demand for didis- 

 cus seeds this spring. 



Enomoto & Co. are doing an extensive 

 business in acacia sprays and are 

 handling violets of good quality. They 

 are beginning to cut their pink tulips 

 and have excellent crops of roses and 

 carnations. 



The United Flower & Supply Co. 

 states that its roses and carnations are 

 in fine shape. "While the quality of the 

 stock has improved, the prices have gone 

 down," said I. Inoue. "There is just 

 about enough of everything to supply 

 the demand. We have a prospect of 

 plenty of good stock for Easter." 



At the last meeting of the directors of 

 the San Francisco Cooperative Flower 

 Market it was resolved not to abolish, 

 at least for the present, the system 

 which compels purchasers to have cards, 

 costing $1.60 a month, or $5 a quarter, 

 in order to have the privileges of the 

 market. The money obtained from these 

 cards goes toward current expenses. 



J. A. Axcll is showing some exception- 

 ally artistic examples of Mas-Art bas- 

 kets, in the large collection which he is 

 handling for the manufacturers. Some 

 of the flower stands, in pastel colors, 

 touched with iiictMllic effects, have ar- 

 tistic wreaths, rniscd in a stvle that

 It has liiwns, kitchen and flower garden 

 and borders of santolina. There have 

 been other such exhibits, but this is 

 believed to be the first in which every- 

 thing is actually growing. The seeds 

 were put in when the window was first 

 designed, some weeks ago. Now vege-
