The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Apbil 27, 1911. 



NEW BEDFOBD. 



The Market. 



Trade was good last week. Flowers 

 are quite plentiful. Carnations retail 

 at 60 cents and 75 cents per dozen; 

 roses at $1.50 per dozen. What is left 

 of the violets retail at $1 per hundred 

 blooms; sweet peas at $1 and $2 per 

 hundred blooms; snapdragons at 75 

 cents per dozen; daffodils and tulips at 

 50 cents per dozen; double Murillo at 

 75 cents per dozen; callas at $2 per 

 dozen. Pansies are selling at 35 cents 

 and 50 cents per dozen roots. Funeral 

 work has been good, using up lots of 

 stock. 



The weather last week was winter- 

 like, a snow storm coming on Thursday, 

 April 20. Wo are now having cloudy 

 weather. It is too cold and raw for 

 much garden work to be done as yet. 

 The street faker is now a steady thing, 

 with lots of carnations and roses at 

 cheap prices. All the department stores 

 are selling ferns, roses and other flower- 

 ing shrubs at extremely low prices. 



Easter, 1911. compared with Easter, 

 1910, was fully as good, if not better. 

 Prices were good, both for cut flowers 

 and plants. The best trade was in 

 plants, such as primroses, azaleas and 

 pots of tulips in all colors. Daffodils 

 and hyacinths sold well, at 50 cents 

 and up. Some nice ramblers in pots 

 and hydrangeas also sold well. Lilies 

 were good and cleaned out well at 25 

 cents per bud and flower. The cut 

 flower trade was quite satisfactory. 

 Carnations retailed at 75 cents and $1 

 per dozen ; roses at $2 per dozen. Violets 

 were none too plentiful at $1.50 per 

 hundred blooms. Sweet peas brought $1 

 and $2 per hundred blooms; cut bulb 

 stock, 50 cents per dozen ; Murillo tulips, 

 75 cents per dozen. 



Various Notes. 



E. H. Woodhouse had a grand crop 

 of single violets for Easter. He picked 

 a great many thousands of them, which 

 were gobbled up quickly. W. L.
