LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market. 



Business conditions last week were 

 fair. Beauties are scarce at present, but 

 will probably be in good supply in a 

 few weeks. Other roses, such as Brides- 

 maid, Bride, Golden Gate, Ivory, Perle, 

 Chatenay, Eichmond and Killarney, are 

 in good supply and demand. There is 

 an abundance of carnations on the mar- 

 ket and they meet with ready sales. 

 Sweet peas, callas and bulbous 'stock of 

 fairly good quality clean up well. Vio- 

 lets are of good quality. Potted plants, 

 such as cyclamens, primulas, azaleas and 

 cinerarias, have a satisfactory demand. 

 Green goods are plentiful and sell well. 

 The weather is fair and is about all that 

 could be desired, 



Variotti Notes. 



The Michler Bros. Co. has been cut- 

 ting bulbous stock of good quality. The 

 firm also has good callas. 



Anderson & White have the largest 

 supply of geraniums and other spring 

 stock that they have ever had at their 

 greenhouses. 



A recent visit to the J. A. Keller 

 greenhouses, on East Sixth street, found 

 everything in good shape. The 40,000 

 square feet of glass are devoted to a 

 general line of stock for the retail down- 

 town store, on Main street. The two 

 new rose and carnation houses, built last 

 summer, were the most notable. Brides- 

 maid, Bride, Golden Gate, Ivory, Perle 

 and Richmond are among the varieties of 

 roses grown, and excellent flowers are 

 being cut. Khea Reid will be given a 

 trial here next season. The favorite vari- 

 eties of carnations are Enchantress, Rose- 

 pink and White Enchantress, White Per- 

 fection and Beacon, A few Queen 

 Louise, Boston Market, Lady Bountiful, 

 Aristocrat and other varieties are grown 

 in limited quantities and will probably 

 be discarded next season for some of 

 the newer varieties now on the market. 

 Several other houses, devoted to palms, 

 ferns and general stock, were looking 

 well. A lean-to house of sweet peas has 

 been producing abundantly. J. Ferdi- 

 nand Keller, the manager, and his skilled 

 assistants deserve much credit for such 

 a neat, clean and well-kept place. Mr. 

 Eggers, formerly with S. M. Harbison, 

 Danville, Ky., is now the rose and carna- 

 tion grower for the firm and has proven 

 himself a highly competent grower. The 

 retail cut flower store is in charge of 

 James P. Keller, assisted by Miss Paul- 

 ine Worland and Henry Ballard.
