The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Apeil 8, 1909. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market 



Business is quiet, although smce bet- 

 ter weather arrived the transient trade 

 seems more active. There is plenty of 

 almost everything coming in and prices 

 rule low. , Even Beauty roses' are a trifle 

 more plentiful and prices are lower on 

 all grades of roses. Carnations are held 

 firmer, $3 and $4 being the price for 

 most of the specials. Sweet peas are a 

 great favorite and are handled in large 

 quantities at from 25 cents to 50 cents 

 per hundred. Single and double violets 

 are now seen in large quantises, with 

 the best in fair demand. Easter lilies 

 are now seen, the forerunners of the Eas- 

 ter crop,"^ which is almost a total failure 

 here. In hydrangeas there are only a 

 few large plants, and what few are seen 

 are in 5-inch or 6-inch pots. 



Tulips, hyacinths and jonquils are ar- 

 riving in large quantities and move fairly 

 well. Bulbs in pans are in steady de- 

 mand and, from the present outlook, the 

 Easter trade will be far better than last 

 year. A number of the growers yilL Jiot 

 bp able to get their bulbs in on'^me. 

 Geraniums are one of the short items. 

 They are not to be had in any such quan- 

 tities as formerly and are retailing at 

 15 cents each. 



Variouf Notes. 



The death of Henry Eberhardt, which 

 occurred March 30, at the home of his 

 son, August Eberhardt, 2875 West Balti- 

 more street, removes one of the oldest 

 and most respected men in the trade. Mr. 

 Eberhardt was 78 years old and had a 

 florists' establishment on Beaumont ave- 

 nue, Catonsville. He was one of the 

 charter members of the Gardeners' and 

 Florists' Club of Baltimore. A large 

 number of the members attended the fu- 

 neral, which was in the Western ceme- 

 tery. 



Charles Cook has purchased four acres 

 of land on the old Frederick road, where 

 he has started to erect a fine dwelling. 

 He will offer his present place for sale. 



James Glass has some fine azaleas, 

 which are finding a ready sale at his 

 market stand. 



Israel Rosnosky, of the H. F. Michell 

 Co., was in Baltimore on Saturday, 

 April 3. Q. 



Benton Harbor, Mich. — F. L. Torn- 

 quist is making preparations for the 

 building of an addition to his green- 

 houses. The new space will be used for 

 mums and a general line of plants.
