State of Business. 



All the florists I have seen are busy 

 propagating bedding stock and, judg- 

 ing by the amount that is being rooted, 

 they are looking forward to a large 

 business this coming spring. There is 

 a large amount of shrubs and herbaceous 

 stuff being planted and the indications 

 are that landscape work will increase 

 rapidly. 



Carnations in most of the places visited 

 are looking fine. Experiments are being 

 made with some of the newer varieties, 

 but I cannot as yet see any improve- 

 ment on the older sorts. There are some 

 fine blooms grown of The Belle but I 

 hardly think it will meet the require- 

 ments of this country. Fiancee has an 

 exquisite color and large flower, but as 

 yet does not produce enough bloom to 

 justify extensive growing. Lawsons, 

 which do not make much stem, are now- 

 growing finely and my experience so 

 far is that if planted early tliey will 

 give good results. Queen Louise is grown 

 in some sections to perfection, while in

other places it has proved a failure. 

 Wolcott does finely as far as I can see, 

 and seems to stand the sudden changes of 

 the climate without a burst calyx. Kh- 

 telle does not quite come up to what was 

 expected of it, while America gives the 

 best of results. Enchantress is now at 

 its best, being full of buds with stems 

 two to three feet long and brings the 

 top price. 



Valley has never been grown iiuicli 

 here, and is really a novelty, and is 

 eagerly snapped up, prices ranging from 

 .$1 to $l.~yO per dozen. Narcissi, in fact 

 all bulbous stock, sells on sight, and good 

 prices are realized. 



Sudden change of weather conditions 

 is what the growers have to contend 

 with. Tlie thermometer may read 80 

 degrees today and tomorrow, with a 

 sudden cliange of wind, may drop to 22 

 degrees. Such conditions keep us here 

 ever on the alert and we are glad when 

 spring comes to relieve the tension.
