BALTIMORE. 



The Market 



At last the sun has com^ forth and 

 has brought out considerably more cut 

 tlowers. From the appearance of some 

 of the retail windows, which are taste- 

 fully arranged, there seems to be a full 

 supply. Business has been fairly good, 

 both wholesale and retail, and cleans up 

 everything. St. Valentine's day was ob- 

 served in many ways. Many cut flowers 

 were used. Violets had the principal 

 call, hundreds of orders being filled. 

 Many dinners were served and these 

 called for various kinds of decorations. 

 Funeral work seems to stay, a great 

 amount of this kind of work being dis- 

 posed of daily. 



Boses are a little more plentiful. Car- 

 nations are doing fairly well, all being 

 disposed of every morning. Violets are 

 enough to meet the demands. The 

 double violet is almost a thing of the 

 past; we depend mostly on the singles. 

 Paper Whites are scarce. Callas still 

 are short of their usual supplj'. Plenty 

 of freesias can be had, both long and 

 short stems. Sweet peas are not plenti- 

 ful and sell well. Greens of all kinds 

 can be had. 



The market florists are out again with 

 stalls filled with various kinds of plants 

 and the appearance proves that Easter 

 is approaching. The public patronizes 

 them and there is little left to take 

 home. 



The demand for gladioli this year ex- 

 ceeds last year and many more will be 

 grown here for market. 



Variotti Notes. 



J. 0. Strand, Waverly, Md., reports 

 that he has had a good cut of Christmas 

 Pink sweet peas. In one month he cut 

 4,618. 



Monday, February 11, a strike at the 

 Pratt street power-house tied up the 

 street car system and affected business, 

 also the attendance at the meeting of 

 the Gardeners' Club, as the members 

 nearly all depend upon the cars in com- 

 ing and reaching home and many stayed 

 at home, fearing that they would be 

 held in town. 



E. A. Seidewitz had a catchy adver- 

 tisement in one of the daily papers, it 

 read as follows "Flowers as a valen- 

 tine, the proper caper. ' ' 



From present indications there will be 

 a much greater demand for Paper White 

 narcissi this year than last.
