NEW ORLEANS. 



The Market. 



Every florist in the city is wishing 

 that, with the end of the dismal, rainy, 

 summer season, the dullness of business 

 will depart likewise. This summer will 

 surely go on record for the heaviest 

 rainfalls experienced in this section of 

 the country in many years. 



The standard foliage and flowering 

 plants, growing on for the coming win- 

 ter season, are everywhere in good 

 condition. The chrysanthemums are 

 beginning to show buds, and though a 

 great number of plants suffered from 

 the excessive rains, a scarcity of flowers 

 for All Saints' day, November 1, does 

 not seem probable at the. present time; 

 much depends on the weather conditions 

 from now on and all growers hope for 

 the best. 



Nearly every florist 's establishment 

 is more or less infested with different 

 kinds of caterpillars and only the great- 

 est determination to destroy this vora- 

 cious pest saved thousands of Aspara- 

 gus plumosus and all kinds of uephrol- 

 epis from utter destruction. Hardly 

 any plants, kept outside during summer, 

 are housed before October, giving the 

 florists suflScient time to get their 

 houses in proper shape for the coming 

 winter. 



Summer travelers are beginning to 

 come home, and the displays in the 

 different flower stores show already a 

 marked improvement as compared with 

 the monotony of the last three months. 

 Any increase in business activity is, so 

 far, hardly noticeable, but the recent 

 funerals of several prominent people, 

 besides some small weddings in the city 

 and nearby towns, helped the storekeep- 

 ers to dispose to some extent of their 

 stock, which at present consists mostly 

 of northern flowers. All kinds of bulbs 

 have arrived lately in great shipments, 

 but, owing to the early season, only 

 Lilium Harrisii and calla lilies have 

 been*planted, which «rill be followed by 

 giganteums, hyacinths, narcissi, etc., by 

 the end of the month. 



Various Notes. 



Hermann Doescher, one of the city's 

 young, enterprising florists, and Harry 

 Dressel, the expert rose grower of the 

 Metairie Eidge Nursery Co., went on 

 a business and pleasure trip to Galvetf- 

 ton, Houston and other points in Texas. 



The Metairie Eidge Nursery Co. wil\ 

 occupy larger quarters on Carondelet 

 street. E^ B.
