only tulip seen in any quantity. In nar- 

 cissus, a good many double Von Sions 

 are arriving, and small lots of ornatus. 

 So far bulbous flowers are selling quite 

 well. 



Quite a few pans of hyacinths, tulips 

 and Von Sion narcissi are arriving. 

 Azaleas, white lilacs, cyclamens and Lor- 

 raine begonias are other flowering plants 

 mostly in evidence. 



Various Notes. 



The catalogue of the Park street mar- 

 ket exhibition is now ready and contains 

 a splendid list of prizes, for which many

 Stuart, of Burlington, Vt. 



The Providence and North Shore Hor- 



ticultural Societies have been invited to 

 meet with the Boston Gardeners' and 

 Florists' Club on carnation night, Feb- 

 ruary 16. A big attendance and more 

 exhibits than ever before are already 

 assured. 



Waban Eose Conservatories, in addi- 

 tion to receiving heavy orders for "White 

 Killarney from the United States and 

 Canada, report quite a demand from 

 England, France and Germany. 



J. T. Butterworth reports an unusually 

 good demand for orchids this season. 

 Of white Lselia anceps he is cutting a 

 fine lot at present. 



No finer single violets are seen in the
