fodils, narcissi and freesias are in 

 heavy crop, with a gradual decline in 

 price. The standard varieties of tulips 

 and hyacinths in pans have proved the 

 best sellers of the season. Violets are 

 almost a glut on the market. 



Various Notes. 



H. Plath is sending a fine lot of hya- 

 cinths and tulips in pans to this mar- 

 ket. 



The Florists' Club of San Francisco 

 has arranged with the Golden Gate 

 park commissioners for space to be 

 used as the Convention garden for the 

 August gathering of the S. A. F. 



Arthur Cann, of San Jose, was a can- 

 didate of the divorce court last week. 



The Thorsted Floral Co. held an or- 

 chid show at its store this week. The 

 entire interior was a forest scene, sev- 

 eral trees being erected to show the 

 orchids in their natural state. About 

 500 cattleyas were used, in addition to 

 the many choice plants of phalsenopsis, 

 cypripedium, oncidium, Iselia, odonto- 

 glossum and lycaste. Cibotiums, as- 

 pleniums and polypodiums were used 

 profusely to give the general tropical 

 effect. It was generally admitted to be 

 the best individual show ever attempt- 

 ed on the Pacific coast. E. K. C.

The Market. 



Continuous cold has prevailed for 

 over ten days, with the wind coming 

 from the east and northeast and with 

 temperatures below freezing all of the 

 time except in the middle of some of 

 the sunniest days. The result is that 

 carnations are scarce just at a time 

 when they are needed for social affairs. 

 The effect of the weather is less no- 

 ticeable on roses, which are coming in 

 more abundantly and are of first-class 

 quality. The local-grown supply is not 

 sufficient and the deficiency is being 

 made up with California stock. Cut 

 and potted tulips are in great demand; 

 Vermilion Brilliant, alba maxima, Pro- 

 serpine and Mon Tresor are among the 

 best sellers. The supply of Paper 

 Whites and Eomans has increased, but 

 is still short of the demand. Potted 

 and cut Golden Spur daffodils are ap- 

 pearing in limited quantities and are 

 in great demand. Genistas and azaleas 

 are among the best selling blooming 

 plants. IVeesias, both potted and cut, 

 sell well. 



There is a noticeable increase in so- 

 cial activities and the demand for all 

 sorts of cut stock is really more than 

 equal to the supply. The sale of potted 

 stock is increased by this shortage and 

 there is complaint among the retailers
