SURPLUS OF CYCLAMEN 



3-m. transplanted seedlings, $8.00 per 100, $60.00 per 1000 



Owing to the fact that we had 100% germination of our cyclamen seed, 

 we have a surplus of stock which we wish to dispose of quick and at 

 reduced prices. Best commercial colors, Salmon and Christmas Red. 



BEST STRAIN. ALL STRONG AND HEALTHY PLANTS.

plants have disappeared, and their place 

 is taken sparingly with outside stock. 

 Just now there seems to be an 

 abundance of other kinds for present 

 needs, but no large reserve in sight. 



Some local news was discussed among 

 the growers at the recent meeting of the 

 association, which was quite interesting 

 to all. It was imparted by the speakers. 

 Mr. Chervenka, of the Woodland Park 

 Floral Co., described a new seedling rose 

 that the nrm had developed and named 

 Honeymoon. Another originated by the 

 same company was a white sport of 

 Tausendschoen that looks promising. 

 A. A. Hinz, who knows geraniums when 

 he sees them and grows thousands, told 

 of a new one, scarlet in color, which he 

 has developed. It is semi-double, a 

 has developed. It is a semi-double, 

 stocky grower and is named Tacoma 

 Beauty. The Kenwood Greenhouses 

 have a new single geranium which is an 

 odd color in pink, named Lady Morris. 

 H. W. Manike has developed a new car- 

 nation seedling from plants that he has 

 been nursing along for ten years, and he 

 is well pleased with" the result. He has 

 also succeeded in bringing out a tomato 

 that grows in sprays two feet or more 

 long and produces from twenty to 

 twenty-five tomatoes on a spray, some 

 of the fruit being as large as goose eggs. 



Bedding plants are in big demand and 

 moving well. The call for perennials is 

 much larger than usual, the long, cold 

 winter having killed many of them. 

 Roses, too, suffered severely. 



The regular .shops and growers who 

 have large overhead expense have to 

 meet a marketing situation peculiar to 

 this section of the country. The price 

 for lilies, both wholesale and retail, 

 was standard with them, and strictly 

 adhered to. Now comes a large grower 

 of foreign birth, not eligible for citi- 

 zenship, from a city near Tacoma, with 

 truckloads of the timely blooms, and 

 peddles them in the stalls at a price that 

 allows a cut of 15 cents per bloom to the 

 consumer. That is the situation here 

 on florists' special days at all seasons of 

 the year. Those in the trade here are 

 complaining against such unfair compe- 

 tition.

George Lawler gardens, at Gardenville, 

 were used to decorate the auditorium of 

 the First Methodist church Sunday, 

 May 7. This was one of the largest dis- 

 plays of its kind ever made in Tacoma. 

 The Seattle bowling team and rooters 

 were here Saturday, April 29, to play a 

 return game with the Tacoma team. A 

 good, live committee was appointed for 

 their entertainment. L. B. M.
