ULLRICH'S GREENHOUSES 

 TIFHN, OHIO 



shine had a tendency to open the blos- 

 soms in large quantities at one time, 

 there is little to complain of. The public 

 has certainly shown favoritism for this 

 popular flower this year, 



A few words about the best selling 

 sorts may be in order now. The earliest 

 variety seen here in quantity is Ard Righ. 

 These were in market as early as Thanks- 

 giving and, although the flower is not as 

 large or the stem as long as some of the 

 other trumpet sorts, it is a good seller. 

 As a commercial variety it is not, how- 

 ever, a strong grower, nor is it prolific in 

 the making of bulbs, but it is early and a 

 good money-maker. 



About the 'same time Golden Spur 

 makes its appearance, and this variety 

 was also used quite extensively for early 

 forcing. This is a heavier grower and a 

 somewhat larger flower. Both of these 

 varieties netted the growers from $4 to 

 $5 per hundred. 



Of the later kinds, Princeps seems to 

 be the best in demand, with Trumpet 

 Major as a close second. The latter is 

 not quite so popular, but the flowers 

 keep longer and can be handled easier. 

 Neither of these varieties is forced as* 

 much as the first mentioned and most of 

 the stock is grown outside. 



The earliest blooms from the outside 

 this season brought $2.50 per hundred 

 and on March 1 about one-half that 

 price. Of the later kinds, Sir Watkin is 

 at its height now and the flowers brine 

 about $1.50 per hundred. This is a pop- 

 ular flower with the retailers, but not 

 with the growers. It is claimed that the 

 bulbs m this neighborhood do not multi- 

 ply, and the crop is consequently short- 

 r^i\ ^°comparabilis, both single and 

 double, has proven an excellent seller and 

 a money-maker for the growers this sea- 

 son. They have been uniformly lone- 

 stemmed and large-flowered. This, by 

 the way, is the only double daflfodil that 

 IS in any demand. The old Von Sion is
