nora are almost free from this defect. 

 Violets are down and the quality is not 

 good in many cases. The weather has 

 been too warm for them. 



Sweet peas as yet are mostly short- 

 stemmed, but are improving. Bulbous 

 stock is abundant, but moves pretty 

 well. Some ornatus narcissi are now 

 seen, in addition to the yellow sorts. 

 Double Von Sions sell better than 

 Golden Spurs. The market on valley 

 is fairly good. Some splendid mignon- 

 ette is arriving. Snapdragons are soon 

 bought up, especially pink ones. Blue

cornflowers sell well and calendulas 

 are being used freely in many window 

 decorations. There is quite a good call 

 for yellow marguerites, but an uncer- 

 tain call for miscellaneous flowers. 

 There are still too many cattleyas, with 

 a good supply of other orchids. Gar- 

 denias are rather weak. Trade in 

 green stock is not robust. 



McKinley day passed without recog- 

 nition here, but the outlook is good for 

 Valentine's day. The best class stores 

 are showing Acacia pubescens and 



other varieties, cut, also lilacs in sev- 

 eral colors, amaryllis, clivias and ger- 

 beras, among other flowers. 



Midwinter Flower Show. 



The annual midwinter flower show in 

 Horticultural hall, February 1 and 2, 

 was a most interesting one. The ex- 

 hibits were of uniformly high quality 

 and were staged low, so that visitors 

 could see them to the best possible ad- 

 vantage. Primulas were finely grown.
