re ent visit I BjJecially noted a splen- 

 (li,l form of Delphinium- Belladonna, 

 sduie superb gladioli and a number of 

 sf. illing verbenas that will certainly be 

 a -urprise to many. 



\t the store of the Redondo Floral 

 (■, 1 found everyone busy. F. Borden 

 gji s he never knew business better at 

 tl s time of the year. 



Dieterich continues to make im- 

 pi vements on his Montebello property. 

 A new potting and packing shed is his 

 ]a' st addition. 



\t the Main street establishment of 

 til. Germain Seed & Plant Co. the nur- 

 se" and seed business is keeping up 

 ex: I'ptionally well for the season. Spe- 

 ci;.' sales previous to stock taking have 

 he!|ied materially. At the propagating 

 hoi'ses large quantities of stock are be- 

 inv prepared for the new nursery on the 

 Wliittier road. 



.\rr. Sutton, one of the members of 

 the well-known English seed firm of 

 Sutton & Sons, was a visitor here last 

 v:ovk. PVed Howard was his pilot.

SAN FBANCISCO. 



The ICarket. 



.Midsuiiuner conditions prevail in San 

 Fiiiiipisco and about the bay. Our 

 flower buyers and flower lovers have 

 retreated to summer haunts. The city 

 folk who have gardens have also a 

 luxuriant supply of garden flowers, so 

 that activity in out flowers can hardly 

 be expe(*te<l among the retailers and 

 certainly is not an active factor in the 

 trade at this writing. The greatest de- 

 inaud has been for decorative work 

 and brides' bouquets, with a few late 

 graduations. There has been an unusu- 

 ally active .June wedding business. So- 

 cial functions have not made such a de- 

 mand on florists as in months hereto- 

 fore. 



We have at this writing as fine a 

 stock of greenhouse-grown flowers as 

 at any time this year. Fine roses are 

 in <;ood quantity. The best rose of the 

 week is Killarney," but My Maryland 

 and President Wilson also are of un- 

 usual merit. Good Beauties are easily 

 procurable, but are not a particularly 

 good seller. Carnations are decidedly 

 in oversupply and can be bought cheap- 

 ly- Fortunately, however, they hold 

 their selling price over the retail coun- 

 ters. There is an unusually large quan- 

 tity of Cecile Brunner roses; even the 

 street venders have large quantities. 

 ^f the commoner flowers, we have yet 

 some fine scabiosas and sweet sultan. 

 The seabiosas are much used for bas- 

 ket work. Good lilies with 4-foot 

 stems may be bought for $2 per do/en. 

 Ihei,. are some good hydrangeas and 

 spuaa.s, but aside from those nothing 

 "ej^ ni the line of potted plants.
