NEW YORK. 



The Market. 



Every department of the cut flower 

 business in New York suffered seriously 

 last week because of the extremely cold 

 weather, no such prolonged season of 

 zero temperature having been expe- 

 rienced here for forty years. All 

 through the week stock came to the 

 market badly frozen. This was espe- 

 cially noticeable Saturday night, when 

 many delayed shipments of violets ar- 

 rived in bad condition. The street 

 merchants for weeks have been under 

 cover and the market has had no relief 

 from this source. Even the depart- 

 ment stores have been comparatively 

 deserted. It is fortunate the receipts 

 of stock were not greater. 



Of roses there is a sufficiency, and 

 the quality of stock arriving, from 

 Beauties and the new varieties to Maids 

 and Brides, is seldom excelled. Beau- 

 ties hold steady at $6 per dozen for the 

 best grade in quantity. Hillingdon, 

 Ward and Prince de Bulgarie grow in 

 favor rapidly and beyond the possible 

 supply. Killarney and Maryland never 

 showed better color and length and 

 strength of stem, while Kichmond is 

 snapped up promptly on arrival and is 

 as popular as in the holidays. Carna- 

 tions have fluctuated between $1 and $3 

 per hundred, only a few selected novel- 

 ties going above that quotation. Vio- 

 lets are again abundant and values are 

 receding. A large quantity of unsal- 

 able stock came in last week, the cold 

 wave being responsible. The top figure 

 has been 50 cents per hundred. The 

 street will now provide an outlet for 

 the accumulation of the inferior grade. 

 The slump in gardenias has been one 

 of the surprises of the season. The 

 short-stemmed stock is ridiculously 

 low, some of it selling last week under 

 $2 per hundred. The best sold slowly 

 at $3 per dozen and from that to $10 

 per hundred. Orchids even have shared 

 in the depression, and 25 to 50 cents for 

 the best cattleyas is the prevailing 

 figure. Valley and lilies show little life 

 and prices remain low. Of freesia 

 there is now no limit, and daffodils, 

 bouvardia, daisies, sweet peas, mignon- 

 ette, narcissi and hyacinths, with an- 

 tirrhinum, tulips and wallflowers, com- 

 plete a bulging supply of every season- 

 able flower.
