SAN FBANOISCO. 



The Market, 



The weather continues pleasant and, 

 although rain has threatened for sev- 

 eral days, the sunshine is still with us. 

 The carnations and roses are making 

 up for lost time and the town is liter- 

 ally swamped with them. The prices 

 have gone glimmering in consequence 

 and it is useless to give any quotations. 

 In a couple of weeks, however, things 

 will commence to . right themselves 

 again. The reason for the sudden ava 

 lanche of blossoms is not hard to find. 

 Usually at this time we are treated to 

 eomething similar, but this season, 

 owing to the several weeks' rest of in- 

 side stock of all kinds, with the first 

 few days of sunshine the pent-up vigor 

 of the plants suddenly burst forth and 

 we all can sec the result. 



Daffodils of the later sorts are com- 

 mencing to be a factor in the market 

 and violets are slightly on the wane. 

 Easter lilies are daily becoming more 

 plentiful and, from all appearances, will 

 be in sufficient quaatity to fill all re 

 quirements. Valley is in good supply 

 and moves well. Wild flowers of half 

 a dozen sorts fill in nicely and help the 

 show along. Fruit blossoms and wild 

 ferns, together with several varieties 

 of native growths, are all being used. 

 Business is only fair, with quite a les- 

 sening of funeral orders, and the usual 

 lenten dullness hovers over everything. 



Various Notes. 



S. Benning & Co. have opened at 32.50

 ories of Sacramento and Oakland, Cal.,

The Market. 



Trade during the last few weeks has 

 been quite satisfactory. There does 

 not seem to have been a surplus in 

 any of the standard lines, although 

 there has been at least an average sup- 

 ply of everything except roses. 



Lilies, from present appearances, will 

 be poor and scarce. The bulbs when 

 first received were seen to be below the 

 usual size, and further tests have shown 

 more than the usual percentage of dis- 

 ease; one firm throw out over sixty per 

 cent before the final potting. 



Outdoor daffodils are now arriving in 

 quantity. Golden Spur in sheltered lo 

 cations is of fair quality. A compara- 

 tively large area is now planted to 

 bulbs in this locality and, unless the 

 demand grows quickly, it is hard to 

 see where they can be disposed of at 

 remunerative rates. 



Club Notes. 



Highly satisfactory progress has been 

 made with the Florists' and Gardeners' 

 Club. Between thirty and forty mem- 

 bers aie now enrolled and there are ap- 

 [)lications at each meeting. The first 

 of a series of public meetings to be held 

 under the auspices of the society was 

 held in the Broad street hall, March
