 NEW ORLEANS. 



The Market. 



Since Easter, business with most of 

 the local florists, especially the retail- 

 ers, has been satisfactory, weddings 

 and receptions calling for a consider- 

 able amount of choice cut flowers and 

 plant decorations. The stock of pot 

 plants, especially bedding plants, is 

 moving constantly, but on account of 

 the rainy weather we have had in the 

 last two weeks the work of the land- 

 scape gardeners is handicapped. The 

 most prominent outdoor grown c\lt flow- 

 ers are Spanish iris, which can be seen 

 here by the thousand, and the demand 

 for them is brisk. Most of the outdoor 

 roses are only fit for cheap work and 

 the sweet peas are far behind in quan- 

 tity as well as quality. Greenhouse 

 lilies can be seen everywhere, and thou- 

 sands of outdoor ones will soon be in 

 bloom. 



The truckers in the vicinity of New 

 Orleans are bringing in some fine vege- 

 tables. Lettuce, shallots, turnips, mus- 

 tard and bunch onions are scarce; rad- 

 ishes and spinach are in moderate sup- 

 ply, but beets, carrots and parsley are 

 plentiful. The coming string bean crop

Club Meeting. 



The New Orleans Horticultural So- 

 ciety held its monthly meeting April 

 18, at Kolb's German Tavern. Claude 

 Ory presided; C. E. Panter, the secre- 

 tary, was at his desk and there was a 

 fair attendance. Picturesque Grand 

 Isle, situated in the Gulf of Mexico, 

 was unanimously selected for this 

 year's outing during the middle of 

 July. It was decided to make the trip 

 by boat, to give all the participants 

 the full benefit of the highly interesting 

 country. C. R. Panter, B. M. Wichers 

 and Paul Abele were appointed a com- 

 mittee of arrangement, with instruc- 

 tions to report at the next meeting. 



To draft resolutions in memory of 

 Mrs. Charles Eble and H. A. Despom-
