The Market 



Midsummer dullness now reigns in the 

 cut flower market. Arrivals, especially 

 of roses and carnations, are much re- 

 duced and demand is extremely light, 

 but better than a year ago. Sweet peas 

 are the best selling flower at present. 

 Good blooms are, however, rather scarce, 

 the majority being short-stemmed, owing 

 to continued dry weather. Prices vary 

 from 10 cents to 35 cents per hundred. 

 Dorothy Eckford, white; Frank Dolby 

 and Lady G. Hamilton, lavender, and 

 Miss Willmott, orange-pink, are popular 

 varieties. Boses are of inferior quality, 

 with the exception of some nice Beauties, 

 Kaiserins and Carnots. Killarneys hold 

 up well, but Bichmonds are poor. 



Carnations are getting small, and so- 

 called ' * fancies ' ' would hardly have been 

 salable six weeks ago. Prices on these 

 vary from $2.50 per thousand to $1 per 

 hundred. For lily of the valley there is 

 a steady call. Lilies are not abundant. 

 The outdoor crop of L. candidum is now 

 over, but in addition to longiflorums 

 there are speciosums and auratums com- 

 ing in. Gladioli is being used by the re- 

 tailers for window decorations. Coreop- 

 ^^s> gypsophila, sweet sultan and other 

 outdoor flowers are quite plentiful. There 

 is too much candytuft, which sells poorly. 

 Blue cornflowers (Gentaurea cyanus) are 

 one of the best selling flowers at present, 

 but white and pink colors are not wanted. 

 Asters so far are short-stemmed, of the 

 variety Queen of the Market, and make 

 an average of $1 per hundred. There is 

 no change to be noted in prices of green 

 stock.
