The Market. 



Flowers continue overabundant and 

 business continues at rather a low ebb, 

 although in comparison with that of 

 one year ago it is a trifle ahead, which 

 IS somewhat encouraging. Bulbous 

 stock is now at its best. Never have 

 daffodils or the various kinds of nar- 

 cissi made a bigger showing than in 

 the last two weeks. They are our most 

 popular flowers at present, but, owing 

 to the favorable weather conditions, 

 they are produced in much larger quan- 

 tities than are needed. Apparently, 

 this is not the case with tulips. A few 

 of our larger growers did not plant tu- 

 lips as heavily this year as formerly, 

 and they are not in such heavy supply. 

 Still, there are plenty for all require- 

 ments. 



Roses and carnations are plentiful 

 and cheap. Valley is not in oversup- 

 ply. Freesias are scarcer. Japanese 

 lilies are bought up well. Violets are 

 not quite as much of a drug as they 

 were, but are in good supply. Sweet 

 peas are cheaper. Adiantums and other 

 greens are easier. From all accounts, 

 there will be plenty of material for 

 Easter. 



Various Notes. 



The Panama Pacific directors have ad- 

 vertised for bids for large quantities 

 of nursery stock with which to orna- 

 ment the grounds of the coming ex- 

 hibition.

 ciety will give its spring flQ,wer show 

 in the Fairmount hotel, March 27, 28 

 and 29. 



The California Retail Florists' As- 

 sociation held its regular meeting in 

 Native Sons' hall on the evening of 

 February 24. There was a large at- 

 tendance. The by-laws committee pre- 

 sented a full report. 



C. C. Morse & Co. have just finished 

 a plant house, 25x200, on their grounds

A visit to Darbee's shipping station
