Easter Trade. 



In spite of such unusually torrid 

 weather for March, the Easter season 

 was quite successful. All the stores 

 presented a brilliant appearance, the 

 flowers being banked attractively, both 

 inside and out, in great profusion. Aza- 

 leas and bulbous stock were once more 

 in demand and commanded good prices. 

 Geo. H. Cooke "s store was banked with 

 fine specimen plants of azaleas, hydran- 

 geas and rhododendrons. Geo. C. Shaf- 

 fer had his usual large Easter display 

 of nice plants, which attracted much at- 

 tention. Gude Bros. Co. had its whole 

 store filled with many varieties of at- 

 tractive plants, and in front of the en- 

 trance was a magnificent specimen plant 

 of Bougainvillea glabra, some six feet 

 tall, around which w^ere banked azaleas 

 and other seasonable plants. 



There was a noticeable scarcity of 

 Easter lilies, and those seen were of 

 poor quality as compared with former 

 years. There is much complaint among 

 the growers in regard to the diseased 

 bulbs received from abroad and attend- 

 ant losses on same. It is also claimed 

 the varieties were not all true to name. 

 But few lilies of standard height were 

 seen, and in all cases a scarcity of flow- 

 ers prevailed. Business is all one could 

 expect, even at this season, and the re- 

 tailers have all they can do to fill or- 

 ders. Prices are almost identical with 

 former years. 



The well-known poet, John A. Joyce, 

 of Georgetown, D. C, favored Gude Bros. 

 Co. with the following poem as an Eas- 

 ter tribute: 



Gude. Gude. through the hours. 

 Strewing life with frasrant flowers. 

 Fill the soul with tbongbts divine, 

 Pleader of the superfine, 

 (ilorious In church or state, 

 Ever working, never late. 

 To entrance all humau powers 

 By his brilliant bud and flowers.

MABELLE 



NEW PINK CARNATION POR 1907 



Color— A peculiar ihade of lovely pink, with a 

 faint yellowish cast; several shades lighter than the Law- 

 ton. Unlike most pinks, the brightest sun does not 

 injure the color. 8l«o— 3 to 4 inches in diameter when 

 eatablished. Odor — Pleasing, but not strong. 

 Stems— Invariably strong, but always graceful, rang- 

 ing from 12 to 30 inches during the season. Habit, 

 •to. — A very quick, active grower, making specimen 

 plants in a short time, even from late cuttings. On ac- 

 count of its rapid growth, requires supporting very 

 soon after benching. Gets away rapidly, blooms early 

 and gives long stems ri^ht from the start. Prodnct- 

 iTenest- Prodigious is the best word we know of to 

 use here. It is the most incessant bloomer, early and 

 late, we have ever grown. Stock limited. No discount. 

 Price 112.00 per 100; 1100.00 per 1000.
