BALTIMOBE. 



The Market. 



It is too early at this writing to sum 

 up exactly the results of the Christmas 

 trade here, but the weather was far 

 from being satisfactory for the last ten 

 days. It rained steadily all day Decem- 

 ber 22. Saturday was cloudy and on 

 Sunday it snowed and rained the whole 

 day long. For nearly three weeks it 

 has been cloudy, with heavy fogs and 

 only an occasional glimpse of sunshine 

 foT an hour or two. 



The volume of business was all that 

 was desired and there were plenty of 

 flowers; in fact, so many that nearly 

 every order could be filled in full with 

 just what the buyer wanted. Another 

 thing which looks well for the business 

 is that the stock brought satisfactory 

 prices. Pot plants were in heavy de- 

 mand, especially ferns, poinsettias and 

 made-up pans. 



A curious feature of the occasion was 

 the revived trade in violets. For sev- 

 eral years the demand has been nor- 

 mal, but this year, as by one consent, 

 everybody wanted violets, and luckily 

 good stock was plentiful. Some of the 

 growers stocked up heavily with Eoman 

 hyacinths and Paper Whites last fall, 

 expecting to reap a harvest at Christ- 

 mas, but they proved to be disastrous 

 from a financial standpoint, as nobody 

 wanted them at any price. There has 

 not been any market for them at Christ- 

 mas for several years. 



Various Notes. 



The Baltimore Florists' Exchange did 

 a business considerably in excess in 

 volume of any preceding Christmas sea- 

 son. Manager J. J. Perry had an extra 

 force of efficient helpers and the trans- 

 actions of the day were smoothly and 

 expeditiously forwarded, including con- 

 siderable shipments to out-of-town cus- 

 tomers. By the closing hour nearly 

 everything was cleaned up. Q. 



Nyack, N. Y. — R. C. Pye has a climb- 

 ing sport of White Killarney that 

 promises to be a fine thing. The plant 

 is 2 years old and carried the bush 

 form in the first year's growth. This 

 season the plant threw a shoot which at 

 this time is thirteen feet long, an 

 extraordinarily strong cane, full of 

 breaks and blooming freely. The blooms 

 are even larger than usually seen on 

 bush plants. My Maryland has also de- 

 veloped a climbing form, but is not con- 

 sidered nearly so valuable.
