CINCINNATI. 



The Gateway to the South. 



Present business is good and the out- 

 look for the immediate future is bright. 

 The supply is adequate and the demand 

 is sufficient to take up most offerings 

 nicely. Up to this time commence- 

 ments have taken up their share of the 

 supply, but the largest is still to come, 

 namely the joint commencement exer- 

 cises of the Cincinnati high schools at 

 Music hall on the evening of June 7. Ad- 

 vance orders for flowers and decorative 

 material for weddings are coming in 

 nicely. 



The Memorial day business was good 

 and took up practically everything in 

 sight that was worth while. It was 

 also a good day for bedding stock. The 

 first reports were, as usual, that stock 

 would be scarce; then it seemed that 

 there would be an oversupply, and 

 finally, as one rush order after another 

 came in, nearly all was taken up. Hap- 

 pily there was plenty for everyone and 

 no one had to be disappointed. Only 

 late shipments and a few peonies and 

 lilies were held over. 



Right now the flowers of quality, in 

 quantity, in the market consist of all 

 the commercial varieties of roses, car- 

 nations, lilies of the valley, lilies and 

 peonies; also such other flowers as 

 gladioli, cape jasmines, cornflowers and 

 coreopsis. Outdoor ramblers and Dor- 

 othy Perkins are beginning to bloom 

 and the first of these have been seen 

 in the wholesale houses. 



The business in greens is good, and 

 at times it is a hard matter to obtain 

 an adequate supply.
