The Market 



Cut flower trade has been fairly active 

 and shipments have been well used up. 

 Indeed, there has been room some days 

 for larger supplies of roses and carna- 

 tions than have come to market. Carna- 

 tions, however, are now coming in more 

 abundantly. Violets are in greater re- 

 quest than for some time, notwithstand- 

 ing the fact that those from the south 

 and from the vicinity of Poughkeepsie, 

 N. y., almost immediately lose their 

 fragrance when the boxes are opened. 

 There have been numerous dinners, 

 luncheons, receptions, etc. The demand 

 created by these, with the customary fu- 

 nerals and hospital needs, has kept up 

 a well distributed activity. 



The weather has been like April and 

 May. There has been no frost in the 

 ground for the last ten days, which is 

 very unusual for this time of the year. 

 The temperature ran up to 64 degrees 

 January 25. This kind of weather is not 

 favorable to the best kinds of flowers. 

 January 30 we had a touch of the bliz- 

 zard, which swept down on us from the 

 north, with heavy winds and with occa- 

 sional snow flurries. 



Sweet peas are a glut and have been 

 so for some time, and the Exchange is 

 stocked up with large quantities, with 

 few takers at any price. Mignonette 

 seems to be losing its popularity, as it 

 does not last long enough to suit some 

 of the trade. 



Various Notes. 



John Cook, the originator of My 

 Maryland, is to give a talk on that rose 

 at the next meeting of the Gardeners' 

 and Florists' Club, February 8. This is 

 also to be carnation night, and it is ex- 

 pected that some of the newer varieties 

 from out of town will be on exhibition. 



A visit was paid to Richard Vincent, 

 Jr., & Sons Co., at White Marsh, Md., 

 January 24, where is to be seen one of 

 the finest known collections of geraniums, 

 which are being shipped away in large 

 orders, over 20,000 being shipped in one 

 day. The stock is in the pink of con- 

 dition. All stock is being sold out of 

 2-inch pots; no rooted stock out of sand 

 is sold. Preparations are being made 

 for one of the largest stocks of dahlia 

 plants that this firm has ever grown. All 

 of the geranium cuttings are potted up 

 as soon as made, as this is considered 

 one of the surest methods of rooting 

 them. Whole benches can be seen with 

 very few blanks, which proves this to be 

 the best way to propagate them at any 

 season of the year. Q.
