LILIES 



FOR 



NOW BOOKING ORDERS 



$8.00 TO $12.50 PER 100 



These are all true Giganteums, the same stock that has given such good satisfaction in the past. 

 They will be packed at the greenhouses in boxes of 100 — packed, mind you, by men who know HOW to 

 pack Lilies, and shipped without rehandling, so that they reach the retailer in the same perfect condition 

 that they came out of the greenhouse. We say without fear of contradiction that any florist who has had 

 these Lilies and other Lilies in past years has found our Lilies not only the best but the most profitable 

 Lilies he has handled. The supply will be largfer than ever this year, so that we shall be able to 

 take care of quite a few new customers. Now booking orders.

the ones most in demand. Richmond 

 is fine and plentiful. There are prob- 

 ably a dozen other varieties which 

 are available in moderate quantities, 

 the quality being good in each case. 



Carnations are slightly less abundant 

 than a week ago, but prices have 

 changed only a little. The quality is 

 excellent. Better carnations seldom 

 have been seen at this time of year; 

 there are only a few of the soft 

 flowers ordinarily numerous at this 

 date and the proportion of splits has 

 decreased. Prices still are unseason- 

 ably low. 



The sale of violets has not yet in- 

 creased to any great extent, largely, 

 the trade thinks, because the temper- 

 ature continues below freezing. The 

 general supply of sweet peas has been 

 considerably reduced. The quality con- 

 tinues fine and there has been some 

 advance in price in this department. 

 Lavender is the color difficult to move.

MEXICAN IVY 



A trial order will convince you of the merits 

 of this increasingly popular green. We han- 

 dle immense quantities fresh from the pickers. *

Easter lilies are abundant and callas 

 are more plentiful than heretofore this 

 season. Bulbous stock is not so con- 

 spicuous, though moderate quantities 

 of all the varieties in season are seen 



in most of the wholesale houses. 

 There has been some increase in the 

 supply of cattleyas, mostly Schroederse. 

 Among the miscellaneous items in mod- 

 erate supply are mignonette, antirrhi-
