For the last week the market has 

 cleaned out in a way which has glad- 

 dened the hearts of everyone, business 

 having been extremely good. One promi- 

 nent grower said it was the best he had 

 seen for a year. Flowers are now more 

 abundant and do not move quite so well, 

 but, on the whole, trade is satisfactory 

 and ^promises to remain so until Lent, 

 when the usual drop may be expected. 



Roses are still somewhat scarce and 

 bringing good prices. Carnations sell 

 better than for a long time, even whites, 

 such as Queen, moving satisfactorily at 

 advanced prices. The quality of all car- 

 nations is splendid at present. Violets 

 are arriving much more abundantly and 

 have fallen in price, 50 cents to 60 cents 

 per hundred now being top price. Quite 

 a few English primroses a^jd blue corn- 

 flowers are coming in. These are popular 

 for boutonnieres. Lily of the valley 

 sells steadily. Gardenias and cattleyas 

 both sell better than for years, and 

 neither are any too plentiful. Lilies are 

 moving satisfactorily, as are callas. 

 Sweet peas continue to improve in qual- 

 ity and increase in number. The better 

 grades move quickly, the short-stemmed 

 ones slowly. 



Narcissi and tulips are so far selling 

 nell. A few Dutch hyacinths are seen, 

 also poeticus and yellow jonquils. So 

 far there is no glut of bulbous stock and 

 prospects are good for its selling better 

 than usual. 



Varioui Notes. 



At a special meeting of the board of 

 trustees of the Massachusetts Horticul- 

 tural Society, held February 5, an ap- 

 propriation of $4,000 was voted for the 

 great orchid exhibition to be held in Bos- 

 ton, May 26 to 30, 1910. Prizes will 

 vary in value from $1,000 to $50 and 

 there will be numerous gold, silver and
