SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. 



The Market. 



There is a large and varied amount of 

 good stock in the market. Daffodils 

 dropped fifty (icr cent. It was not any 

 deterioration in ([uality tliat caused the 

 drop, for daffodils were never better 

 than they are now. Tlie same is true of 

 tlie acacia sprays, which are a mass of 

 excellent bloom! There are good stocks 

 of cut roses, carnations, Scotch heather 

 and many kinds of ornamental fruit 

 blossoms. Violets are still in their 

 prime and growers are sending in good 

 f reesias, sweet peas, snapdragons, 

 primulas of various kinds, and flowers 

 of the jonquil and narcissus families. 

 Quantities of other spring flowers are 

 being cut and a few wild flowers arc 

 finding Iheir way to market. The sea- 

 son for the California poppy is just be- 

 ginning. Pansies are good and anem- 

 ones and ranunculi are coming in. 

 Lileis of the valley are becoming more 

 plentiful and the (|uality i4 good, while 

 Butterfly orchids are seen in several of 

 the loading stores in considerable quan- 

 tities. The gardenia shortage is much 

 less acute. 



Various Notes. 



Supervisor S. Stanwood, of Santa 

 Barbara, Cal., has presented jjlans for 

 the erection of a $l,.''iOO county liorticul- 

 tural building, to be erected in the 

 courthouse yard, Santa Barbara. 



L. Picetti, manager of the San Fran- 

 cisco store of the diaries C. Xavlet Co., 

 says that the spring fever for amateur 

 gardening is at its height. The rains 

 delayed ]ilanting, liut, now that sunny 

 days have come, the Navlet force is do- 

 ing a land office business in roots for 

 planting and seeds. People are often 

 waiting in line to buy stock for home 

 gardens. 



E. F. Axell, of J. A. Axell 's, is back 

 on the job again, after two weeks of 

 illness. J. A. Axell is handling a large 

 amount of splendid stock, including 

 some remarkable poetirus and fine 

 liles of the valley. In fact, this firm has 

 enough lilies of the valley to supply the 

 San Francisco trade. Among other stock 

 are some handsome cut cyclamens.
