tras, araucarias, etc., have been passed 

 (iver the retail counters. 



Cut flowers are at this writing fairly- 

 abundant. Boses are slightly less 

 jilentiful, but in sufficient quantity to 

 supply the demands. American Beauties 

 arc not so long-stemmed, but the blooms 

 are good. Aaron Ward, Cecile Brunner 

 and Maryland are all fair in quality 

 and in sufficient supply. There were 

 more of Mrs. Taft last week than of 

 any other variety. The outdoor flowers 

 liold on remarkably well; this is due 

 to the fact that we have had as yet no 

 warm weather to speak of. There are 

 large quantities of scabiosas, gaillard- 

 ias, coreopsis, calliopsis, etc. 



Sweet peas are on the wane. Now 

 and then one sees a stray bunch of 

 violets, but they are not common or 

 really practical to handle, because they 

 are soft and quite high in price. They 

 are retailing at three small bunches 

 tor 50 cents, with short stems and pale 

 flowers. 



The most showy commodity of the 

 week has been Lilium rubrum. Down- 

 town florists use them almost exclu- 

 sively for window decoration. Chry- 

 santhemums are Welcome, a few of the 

 I'arly yellows being in evidence. There 

 :ire not many dahlias to speak of, but 

 -Minnie Burgle is still the best seller 

 !ind most in evidence. Gladioli are 

 ^till on the market, but the better va- 

 'ioties are not up to the mark. There 

 •'If more reds and terra cottas than 

 I 'ink varieties. Cattleyas are at a 

 I'lomium. Some Cattleya Dowiana are 

 ^I'on in the stores, and a few late gigas. 

 Ml the gigas available are quickly 

 'iken up. 



There are no potted plants of any 

 I iirticular merit, outside of a few 

 -loxinias, and Hydrangea panifulata. 



Various Notes. 



The MacRorie-McLaren Co. has ,iust 

 "I'cned a ear of fifty-six cases of Aus-
