SEATTIiE NOTES. 



[Oontinned from page 63.] 



Sandahl & Sons have their Easter 

 lilies in good shape, from their plant 

 at Benton Junction. Their supply of 

 the usual Easter stock is large and 

 fully up to the average in quality. They 

 report the nursery business as being 

 much improved, compared with that of 

 last season at this time. 



The Hollywood Gardens have an ex- 

 ceptionally fine display of spiraeas and 

 hydrangeas. They have a good supply 

 of lUies, roses, carnations and violets, 

 and their made-up baskets are bound 

 to be good sellers. 



The Eosery is making a good show 

 of Hiawatha and other roses. The 

 firm has some fine specimens of spiraea 

 and the carnations, roses and lilies are 

 excellent. 



The Woodlawn Flower Shop has a 

 beautiful combination of Genista fra- 

 grans and azaleas on display. Some 

 baby ramblers, well grown and flow- 

 ered, are also pretty. They have a 

 large supply of obconicas, good lilies 

 and other flowers. 



T. E. Hopkins, of Kirkland, has just 

 imported a carload of fine hybrid rho- 

 dodendrons for his nursery trade. 



Miss A. M. Wagner, well known in 

 the flower trade here, is now at the 

 store of the H. Harrington Co., on 

 Fourth avenue. 



J. Lussier, of the Fremont Floral Co., 

 was successful in getting all his gigan- 

 teums in for Easter. Frank Bell, at 

 Brighton, got most of his in, while 

 other growers met with varying suc- 

 cess and some with absolute failure. 

 The wholesale price varied from 15 

 cents to 22% cents. Quite a number 

 have been shipped out of town, which 

 will help the retail price. In most 

 stores the charge is 35 cents per bloom, 

 but a better result is obtained by sell- 

 ing at a fixed price per plant. 



Tickets are selling fast for the Flo- 

 rists ' Club 's dance, to be held April 2, 

 and indications point to a successful 

 affair. 



Miss Josephine Hoefinger is assisting 

 in the store of the Paris Florist. Miss 

 Frieda Ousterhout, well known to the 

 trade in the middle west, is also work- 

 ing at this store. 



C. Hoffmeister will resume posses- 

 sion of his plant at Madison street 

 April 1. Mrs. L. W. McCoy hereafter 

 will conduct her growing department 

 at South Park only. 



The wholesale houses report that 

 they were obliged to refuse numbers 

 of order* for lack of stock to supply 

 them. With the cold weather that im- 

 mediately preceded Easter, they had to 

 use additional packing to protect their 

 plants and cut flowers. T. W.

 ing sacrifices. If you can use any of

ENCHANTRESS SUPREME 



|HE best Sport of Enchantress op to date, possessing all the vUror and freedom that dis- 

 tinguish its parent. Color a light salmon pink — a color that is not only very attractive, 

 but also one that endures full exposure to the sun without bleaching. A good all-round 

 Carnation that retains its color at all seasons. Calyx is longer and narrower than that of the 

 parent variety, and distinct from the latter. Has shown no inclination to be a burster. The 

 weak points of Enchantress seem to have been lost in this Sport, and a trial of four years' 

 duration convinces us of its great value.
