DETROIT. 



Tkc Market 



Business has been somewhat unsteady 

 the last week. Funeral work created 

 most of the business, causing a big rush 

 in some stores, while at the same time 

 at the store next door there was noth- 

 ing doing. Just at present there is lit- 

 tle doing in the way of weddings or 

 entertaining. 



Colored stock is plentiful. White 

 flowers remain well cleaned up. Satur- 

 day evening white carnations were at a 

 premium, owing to the demand for 

 green carnations for Marca 17. Carna- 

 tions are bringing from $1.50 to $2. 

 Those colored green for St. Patrick's 

 day sold readUy at $4. In 1906 green 

 carnations did not sell at all, but this 

 year a great many were disposed of. 



•^luch bulbous stock is still going to 

 waste. Violets are getting poor. Smi- 

 lax IS still scarce. Ferns are up to !:>2.50 

 per thousand, and are poor at that. Aza- 

 \^^A ^^^^^' ^°^^ plants, bulbous plants, 

 rhododendrons, etc., are selUng well.

 ous plants for Eaater.

flowers, dyed green, in his window last 

 week. 



J. E. Smith, of Wyandotte, recently 

 gave his fourth or fifth annual spread 

 for a number of the members of the 

 Florists' -Club, Mr. Smith, although 

 long ago of age, is still enjoying single 

 blessedness. He has only a sm^l span 

 of glass, but his carnation crop certain- 

 ly speaks well for the grower. Some of 

 the boys say his crop of champagne and 

 cigars is also par excellence. 



Easter is early this year, but Easter 

 shoppers are already in evidence on all 

 sides. The public is finding out that it 

 pays to be on the ground early. Many 

 orders for Easter are being booked. 

 Nothing pleases the florists more, as 

 they are better able to handle the busi- 

 ness when spread out over a week or ten 



days. Blooming plants are plentiful, 

 but lilies will hardly be equal to the 

 demand. 



"William Hielscher is just recovering 

 from a severe attack of the grip. 



The excellent staying qualities of 

 some green carnation fluid was proven 

 in Detroit. Someone experimented with 

 the tail end of a white dog belonging to 

 William Brown, and now the green tip 

 "won't come off." 



The Detroit Cut Flower Exchange is 

 handling some exceptionally fine sweet 

 peas. 



With the arrival of the spring weath- 

 er the street fakers are again in evi- 

 dence. Hundreds of Enchantress are 

 finding their way to the public through 

 this channel at 25 cents per dozen.
