FICUS ELASTICA 



this spring put this situation to good 

 use by setting his daffodil bulbs out in 

 pots. Now he can offer pots containing 

 five or six bright plants and this nov- 

 elty has been popular with the buyers. 

 Perns are not selling freely and the 

 i-old weather has effectively held back 

 tlio promised demand for bedding stock. 

 There is still plenty of valley on hand. 

 'I'li(>rc arc enough orchids, while some 

 growers reported a drop in the cut of 

 local roses. Kose Premier was the one 

 I'xception to the general rule, there be- 

 ing a tracoa))](' increase in the cut of 

 this variety. The growers state that 

 they expect u heavy cut of Columbia 

 within two weeks. Local violas are 

 ajrain plentiful, nnd are of much l)etter 

 color than was jireviously the case. For 

 store decorations, dogwood blossoms are 

 iho newest item. 



Various Notes. 



Tlie Bon Marelie, one of the larger 

 lo(%-il department stores, has installed 

 a cut flower and seed department on its 

 niain floor, and Irving Harris, who un- 

 til recently was connected with Rosaia 

 Bros, and previously with the Wood- 

 lawn Flower Shop, is operating this 

 new department. 



The Woodlawn Flower Shop last 

 week featured the first of the local 

 growers' outdoor-grown lilies of the 

 valley, and found this novelty took well 

 with the buyers. A number of decora- 

 lions were handled, keeping this part 

 of the force extremely busy, since the 

 Italian garden set had to be set up 

 three times in succession. Some nice 

 S|ianisli iris is being shown, and as this 

 lu'comes more plentiful there seems to 

 he more interest aroused among the 

 liuyers. 



The visit of George Beban, the 

 Italian character actor, in liis pliotoplay 

 lias been made tlio feature of special 

 activities by Seattle florists. The 

 stores arranged that each day some 

 floral piece sliould be delivered at the 

 theater, the shops contributing being 

 Kenney's Home of Flowers, Hollywood 

 Gardens, Pinehurst Floral Shop, Rosaia 

 Bros., Felix Rosaia and the Woodlawn 

 Flower Shop. In addition, he was the 

 guest of the florists at huich one ilay at 

 the Seattle Yacht Club. The publicity
