lii<rh cultivation for which this place has 

 \)(H'n long noted.

 lo' ating permanently in this section if 

 hi finds a suitable opening. G.

The Market. 



The fine spring weather seema to have 

 stimulated business, for trade in all 

 lilies is good and sales above the aver- 

 aj:e. Carnations are of fine quality, 

 aii'l, though some misguided individuals 

 eiKleavor to increase their output by 

 advertising cut prices, the majority gf 

 tho best stores are selling at 75 cents 

 pov dozen and handling just as many 

 flowers as usual. Daffodils are plenti- 

 ful, but still good blooms bring good 

 prices. Eoses are moving satisfacto- 

 rily and some fine stock is offered. The 

 small flowered gladioli make a pleasing 

 variety and are being used up for dec- 

 orations. Callas are more plentiful 

 than usual and are selling well. Pot 

 plants are not much in evidence, but 

 some roses, well grown and flowered, are 

 attractive. 



Various Notes. 



The Seattle Florists' Club gave a 

 dance April 2 for the benefit of the 

 flood sufferers. The committee in 

 charge of the benefit included Felix 

 Rosaia, Joseph Stuber, Frank Bell, Carl 

 Melby, T. B. Pritchard and Thomas 

 Wylie. 



H. B. Slauson has a house of Brun- 

 ners coming into crop and it is a fine 

 sight. The second year of these plants 

 in solid benches evidently is profitable. 



Mrs. Holze now has an assistant in 

 the store of the Queen City Floral Co. 

 The retail department of the business 

 has improved since the completion of 

 the new building. 



The florists' bowling team in the city 

 league has completed its series, with 

 one victory to its credit. 



Lambert E. Pedersen, of the East 

 Seattle Floral Co., has been confined 

 with a serious attack of lumbago.

The Market. 



The weather in the last few days has 

 undergone a sudden change, which has 

 brought the stock out wonderfully. 

 Carnations are showing the effects 

 plainly. Enchantress carnations, espe- 

 cially, are soft and prove to be poor 

 keepers; the other varieties are not af- 

 fected to that degree. The roses are 

 producing a heavy cut. Maids, Brides, 

 Kif'hmonds, Carnota and Killarneys are 

 tho heaviest producers. The local de- 

 niand has held up well, and the out-of- 

 town wholesale trade is constantly de- 

 Dianding choice stock. There is not 

 much demand for carnations among the 

 ^ liolesalers, however, as there seems to 

 ' • a good local supply at the different 

 towns. Violets are on their last legs; 

 |''0 single ones are extremely scarce, 

 'I't double varieties are more plentiful. 

 ^iveet peas are rapidly replacing them 

 j"i'l are of unusually fine types, with 

 ' "g stems. There is a general scarcity 

 ''■ blooming plants, with hydrangeas 

 |?;'d ramblers as the principal stock. 

 ' 'le florists' windows are showing a 

 ariety of cherry and apple blossoms, 

 ^ ith a fine effect.
