The Chalfont Cut Flower Co., of 

 Chalfont, Pa., has over half of its 21,000 

 carnations in white, White Enchantress 

 being the only white variety. The 

 other varieties are C. W. Ward, En- 

 chantress and Beacon. Nebraska is be- 

 ing given a trial; it looks remarkably 

 well. 



Henry A. Dreer, Inc., had a fine ex- 

 hibit of dahlias and foliage plants in 

 the annex windows last week. The 

 whole annex is devoted to bulbs of high 

 grade. The receipts from the dahlia 

 sales for the Martha Washington Me- 

 morial at Valley Forge were gratifying. 



The Joseph G. Neidinger Co. is filling 

 a popular want with home-made bas- 

 kets, apparently more in request than 

 were the imported baskets. 



The Philadelphia Wholesale Florists' 

 Excliange is an active place. Mr. 

 Duetscher says that they have done 

 much better than he expected, so far. 

 Thanks to the fine flowers received.

The Market. 



The rising temperature last week in- 

 creased the production of flowers of all 

 kinds. Quality in many lines, however, 

 is not all that could be expected. Prac- 

 tically every day during the week the 

 wholesale and commission houses were 

 compelled to refuse orders for valley. 

 Growers in this section are apparently 

 continuing to conserve their supplies of 

 pips, realizing that the shipments from 

 abroad are difficult, if not impossible, 

 to obtain. They are dividing their 

 stocks so as to have sufficient to carry 

 them through the winter. As a result 

 of this shortage the price of valley has 

 again risen to $5 per hundred. 



Changes in the weather have had the
