The Easter Trade. 



One of the most noticeable features of 

 the Easter trade is the general increased 

 demand for plants over cut flowers. One 

 of the causes of this may be the ad- 

 vancing of prices by the wholesaler at 

 Easter and Christmas, while plants main- 

 tain a more normal price at all seasons. 

 The retail men are pushing the sale of 

 plants on account of being able to make 

 a larger margin of profit than they can 

 on cut flowers at the holiday season. 

 Many of the best retail men tell us 

 that they cannot ask from their regular 

 customers prices for cut flowers at holi- 

 day season tliat would give them any- 

 thing like a reasonable margin. 



We were treated this Easter to a wet 

 Saturday, which very materially affected 

 business, and consequently quantities of 

 cut flowers were left over. It is the first 

 holiday season that the wholesale men 

 have had sufficient to go around and 

 some to spare. In plants everything 

 cleaned up well. Some very fine rhodo- 

 dendrons and azaleas were to be seen, 

 together with quantities of spineas, lilies 

 and other flowering plants. 



Dunlop 's stores were a magnificent 

 show, with well grown plants from their 

 own conservatories. S. Tidy & Hon had 

 the usual big stock of flowering plants, 

 among which were special importations 

 from the States. His large conservatory 

 at the back of his store gives liim an 

 ideal place for display. J. S. Simmons 

 had his store stocked with all varieties 

 of plants and cut flowers. In the back- 

 ground of his window was an immense 

 cross of bronze galax leaves finished at 

 the base with lilies and doves. 



Since Easter trade has been slack and 

 stock is accumulating very fast. Espe- 

 cially do we notice this in roses and car- 

 nations. Bulbous stock is shortening in 

 supply. Sweet peas are coming in quite 

 plentifully. 



We regret to report the serious illness 

 of J. S. Simmons, who on April 17 suf- 

 fered a nervous collapse. He had over- 

 taxed his strength and is still verv weak.
