SALEM, V A. 



Easter trade was good, almost any- 

 thing in the shape of a flower command- 

 ing a price on Saturday. Eoses were 

 good and not overplentiful. Carnations, 

 owing to the warm weather preceding 

 Easter, had slightly deteriorated in qual- 

 ity but they were better than most of 

 the stock imported from the north, which 

 had evidently been in steep for a con- 

 siderable time. There were many com- 

 plaints on this score, both in Salem and 

 in Eoanoke. Violets were plentiful but 

 poor. Lilies were scarce. Prices were 

 a little in advance of last season. Pot- 

 ted plants, such as cyclamens, cinerarias, 

 spirapas, etc., were in great demand and 

 seemed to be wanted even more than 

 cut blooms. Both growers and retailers 

 seem to be satisfied with the amount of 

 trade done. R. 



VAYSIDE NOTES. 



Underwood Bros, and the Franklin 

 Park Floral Co., of Columbus, Ohio, 

 made special attractions at the green- 

 houses. Being located in the best resi- 

 dence section, they do not need stores. 

 Albert Knopf, the able manager of the 

 Franklin Park Floral Co., says Easter 

 IS their most anxious season and he, for 

 one, ia glad when it is over and the 

 usual routine is resumed. Fine stock is 

 Rrown here. Practically every plant was 

 spoken for. 



M. Bloy, of the Gasser Co., Eocky 

 Ijiver, Ohio, says this has been one of 

 the most critical seasons for the grower 

 and he who managed to get his stock in 

 at Easter deserves a medal. Immense 

 quantities of flowering plants are han- 

 I'led, both wholesale and retail. Roses 

 ^nd carnations were in heavy crop iust 

 fit the right time. 



John Walker, of Youngstown, O., ex- 

 pects to move his plant this spring. The 

 ^ncroachment of the railroad and smoke 

 *rom the engines make it impossible to 

 grow cut flowers. He has a fine lot of
