PHILADELPHIA, PA. 



€L WE'RE AHEAD considerably when it comes to a comparison of SNAPDRAGONS €^ 



Unlike the several strains advertised as the well known 

 New England Silver-pink Snapdragon, we have named ours 



BUXTON'S KILLARNEY - PINK SNAPDRAGON 



as this favorite rose is its nearest comparison as to color. 



Every grower who has tested this strain pronounces it the beat yet. Will you be among the number to buy a stock 

 of this sterling Snapdragon that knows no enemies but makes friends wherever it finds a home? 10,000 strong plants, 

 ready April I. Price, $6.00 per 100; 946.00 per 1000. Cash with order, please.

The Market. 



There is hardly any change to be 

 reported in the market. Stock of all 

 kinds seems plentiful, especially violets. 

 There are plenty of home-grown violets 

 to be had at 25 cents per hundred. 

 Roses, lilies, sweet peas, carnations, val- 

 ley, etc., are equal to the demand and 

 of a splendid grade. The outlook for 

 Easter is fine. From present indica- 

 tions prices will not take that enormous 

 rise, giving the retailer an opportunity 

 to dispose of lots of stock at a fair 

 price. 



Various Notes. 



The last meeting of the Kentucky 

 Society of Florists was honored by the 

 attendance of one of Louisville's oldest 

 florists, John Skrobanek. The establish- 

 ment of Mr. Skrobanek, while modest, 

 shows splendid care and lots of skill is 

 displayed in producing about the best 

 stock sent to the local market. 



The cheap carnation sales continue, 

 only they have become still cheaper, a 

 local department store offering them at 

 20 cents per dozen. 



E. J, Fancourt, of S. S. Pennock- 

 Meehan Co., was a recent caller. 



G. E. S. 



Cresco, la. — W. B. Perry, propriefor 

 of the Garden City Greenhouses, has 

 added one new house and installed a 

 new boiler.
