LILIES 



FOR EASTER DELIVERY 



We offer the famous Randall grade of lilies — the lilies of the same grower 

 whose stock has given such splendid satisfaction in the past. True Longifler- 

 um Giganteum, grown as a crop to follow Mums (which means plenty of time 

 — no hard forcing required, like where Lilies follow a Christmas crop), and in 

 perfect condition. Will be packed at the grefnhouses in wood boxes, 100 in 

 a box. Guaranteed the best in Chicago. StS.OOy $12.00 and $10.00 

 per 100. How many of each grade shall we book you for?

again more plentiful and can be had 

 on long stems, commanding half the 

 price of the best Beauties. Killarney 

 Brilliant is better than at any time 

 heretofore and Hadley is giving nice 

 crops for a few growers. Sunburst is 

 moderately plentiful and there are in- 

 creased supplies of Mrs. Ward. Evi- 

 dently the spring crops are coming on 

 all along the line, though red roses are 

 not now much of a factor. Beauties 

 are slightly more plentiful. Much of 

 the stock cut from old plants still is 

 of a quality that makes it diflficult to 

 sell, but an occasional grower is be- 

 ginning on the spring cut from late 

 planted stock and these Beauties are 

 fine. The scarcity promises to be re- 

 lieved in the near future. 



Carnation crops are not showing the 

 increase that is apparent in roses, but 

 the prices are easy. There have been 

 days when it was not possible to pick 

 up just the stock needed to fill orders. 

 "White carnations are scarce this week; 

 evidently the growers are cherishing 

 them against the approach of St. 

 Patrick's day. 



Violets have afforded a problem for 

 the wholesalers handling thsm in 

 quantity. It cannot be ^d tnere is 

 no demand for violets, as enormous 

 quantities were sold March 6. Itfiifas,

however, impossible to clean up until 

 Saturday and then it could only be 

 done at extremely low prices, possibly 

 the lowest averages ever made in this 

 market for the first week in March. 

 The quality seems quite fair, with the 

 probability that there will be more vio- 

 lets of usable quality fqlr Easter than 

 has been the ease in several years. 



Cattleyas are much less plentiful 

 than they were. Valley continues 

 abundant. Sweet peas are much more 

 plentiful and the price even of the 

 best has fallen twenty-five per cent.

The Spencers are selling excellently, 

 being probably the most popular cor- 

 sage flower of the day. Peas also are 

 being used largely for other purposes.
