The Market. 



Flowers of various kinds have been 

 arriving in fairly good quantities, but 

 business has not been as brisk as it 

 ought to be. In anticipation of Palm 

 Sunday, there was an increase in the 

 sale of palms and ferns, and many large 

 palms were rented for church decora- 

 tion. Hyacinths are plentiful, of good 

 quality and medium in price. Potted 

 geraniums are beginning to come into 

 the market. Primroses are nearly gone. 

 Sweet peas are selling well, the Spen- 

 cers being a great favorite. Violets 

 are plentiful, but many of them are be- 

 coming poor in quality. Many potted 

 rose bushes came into the market dur- 

 ing the week and have been in fairly 

 good demand. Some of the local florists 

 have had a fair demand for pussy wil- 

 lows, of which there are some good spec- 

 imens in the market. Azaleas are plen- 

 tiful and of good quality. There is also 

 a good variety of tulips. Spiraeas, snap- 

 dragons and orchids appeared in mod- 

 erate quantities. 



Many of the florists curtailed their 

 stock a little last week, pre])aratory to 

 putting in an extra large stock of flow- 

 ers and plants for Easter. A number 

 of the dealers have orders to decorate 

 churches, and it is expected that large 

 quantities of flowers will be sold Ito 

 committees from other churches, where 

 the committees in charge will do their 

 own decorating. 



Various Notes. 



Strobell & Co., 895 to 897 Broad 

 street, had some beautiful orchids in 

 their window last week. They also 

 had some excellent snapdragons. They 

 report considerable funeral work. 



A large sale of pussy willows is re- 

 ported at Penek's Flower Shop, 637 

 Broad street. A great number of 

 potted rose bushes were placed in stock 

 last week. 



There was a beautiful lot of spiraeas 

 at Wolfinger's, 683 Broad street, last 

 week. They also had a fine lot of 

 azaleas. 



Among those participating in the 

 trades' exhibits at the international 

 flower show in New York were A, F. 

 Jerome, of this city; Hitchings & Co,, 

 of Elizabeth, and S. P. Townsend & Co., 

 of Orange. Peter Houck, Jr., of East 

 Orange, took first prize in the class for 

 private growers calling for 200 single 

 violets. R. B. M.

 me were grand, I am well pleased with them,"— W. W. M. Some 

 customers have ordered two and ;three times this spring, which 

 speaks for itself.
