The Market 



Trade is a trifle better, there being a 

 fair demand for all spring flowers, or 

 those that are classed as such by the 

 public. Sweet peas are especially fine and 

 plentiful and are great favorites with the 

 public. There are more of these this sea- 

 son than usual. The daffodils have ar- 

 rived; they are in good shape and are 

 bought up on sight. 



Carnations were in heavy demand last 

 week, but were plentiful on the streets 

 on Saturday, February 20. The fancy 

 varieties are in steady demand. Roses 

 continue to be scarce and are bought 

 up on sight. A good many of the re- 

 tailers advise their customers who de- 

 sire roses to take something else, as they 

 cannot with any certainty rely on being 

 able to supply them. Such conditions 

 have never before existed in this mar- 

 ket at this time of the year. 



Violets are to be found in large quan-' 

 titles and always find a buyer if abso- 

 lutely freali. Bulbous stock, while per- 

 haps not so heavy in point of arrivals as 

 last season, is still heavy enough to keep 

 prices on a low basis. Azaleas are com- 

 ing in large quantities and seem to take 

 well, especially in the light colors. 



Variottt Notes. 



The greenhouse establishment of Rich- 

 ard Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co., of White 

 Marsh, was damaged considerably by a 

 violent whirlwind which accompanied 

 the rain storm of Tuesday afternoon, 

 February 16. The oflBce building, which 

 is a large affair, about 50x200 and 

 three stories high, was twisted nearly a 

 foot from its foundations. The glass 

 partition which separates it from the 

 packing room was blown down. Hun- 

 dreds of panes of glass were broken in 

 the greenhouses, tree tops were twisted 

 off and general havoc created. The whirl- 

 wind was traveling in a northeasterly di- 

 rection and seemed to spend its fury on 

 the Vincent farm. 



The tri-city bowling match, between 

 the florists of Philadelphia, Baltimore 

 and Washington, has been arranged. 



Halliday Bros.' new fern, Thomasonii, 

 which originated at their place, has been 

 doing finely and is a promising addition
