32 The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Sbfteubeb 24, 1908. 



the early gladioli, such as Cardinalis and 

 Colvillei varieties, had to be lifted in a 

 great hurry, to prevent their starting new 

 growth in the wet soil. 



The unusually low prices that have 

 prevailed for hyacinths have caused such 

 a general clearance of all stocks that, 

 contrary to all expectations, no more are 

 left on the hands of the growers and 

 prices are showing a slight advance. Of 

 the tulips only a few of the higher priced 

 sorts are left unsold and all the cheaper 

 sorts have sold well. Even the May flow- 

 ering sorts, that moved slowly at first, 

 have all cleared ofif. Crocus are sold out 

 clean and only a few of the narcissi 

 stocks are moving slowly, and may pos- 

 sibly be left unsold. Planting operations 

 are just beginning, but suffer from the 

 effects of the inclement weather.
