The Market. 



The snow storm and blizzard of 

 Sunday and Monday, February 22 and 

 23, played havoc generally with ship- 

 ping, both to and from this city. All 

 the trains from the north and west 

 were delayed or had not been heard 

 from at all by the close of the day's 

 business on Monday. Some of the grow- 

 ers, too, have not been packing their 

 flowers carefully or they have been 

 unnecessarily exposed to the weather 

 while in transit, for some of the ship- 

 ments came in frozen and could not be 

 used, though in many cases badly 

 needed. 



The general market conditions have 

 not varied greatly since the last writ- 

 ing. The rose supply is still limited. 

 At the close of last week there was a 

 strong call for Sunburst and other yel- 

 low roses for corsages and decorative 

 purposes for Washington's birthday 

 affairs. The carnation supply is good 

 and holds its own. All stock of even 

 fairly good quality has sold readily. 

 The supply of bulbous stock has in- 

 creased somewhat. Tulips, jonquik and 

 hyacinths sell well when good. Nar- 

 cissi meet with only an ordinary call. 

 Freesias are among the slow sellers. 

 Giganteum lilies are in fair supply and 

 sell nicely. Among sweet peas there 

 are many excellent offerings, as well 

 as some fine novelties. The good blooms 

 have been selling rapidly at fair prices. 

 The market for Dotn double and single 

 violets is rather slow. Neither orchids, 

 lilies of the valley nor baby primroses

are meeting with a strong call. The 

 demand for greens, particularly ferns, 

 is heavy. 



Various Notes. 



Max Rudolph has been receiving 

 from his greenhouses at College Hill a 

 cut of carnations that are fine and 

 fully up to his usual high standard. 



C. E. Critchell has been receiving 

 some of the fine orchid-flowering sweet 

 pea novelties.
