NEW ORLEANS. 



The Market. 



With the advance of the season a 

 steady increase in business is notice- 

 able, especially in the demand for 

 choice cut flowers. Weddings, recep- 

 tions and an occasional big funeral 

 help to clean out the daily shipments of 

 cut flowers from out of town. In 

 honor of the officers of four big battle- 

 ships, visiting the city from November 

 27 to December 3, many social functions 

 were given, adding some extra work 

 for the retailers. Some of the stores 

 are beginning to put on their holiday 

 attire. Besides the elegant displays of 

 cut flowers, all kinds of seasonable 

 flowering plants are placed on view. 

 The supply of flowering and foliage 

 plants for the Christmas and New 

 Year's trade is about the same as in 

 other years. Some extra fine Petrick 

 azaleas and Gloire de Lorraine and Cin- 

 cinnati begonias can be seen. 



So far there has been only a light 

 frost in the latter part of November, 

 doing no damage to outdoor flowers, 

 such as roses, poinsettias, sweet peas, 

 etc. Although the weather at present is 

 too warm for bulbous stock, especially 

 hyacinths, several growers began to cut 

 their Paper White narcissi December 

 10, cutting mostly either from bulbs 

 planted in boxes or in coldframes with 

 sash coverings. 



The landscape gardeners are busy 

 sowing winter grass and replanting car- 

 pet and other summer beds with all 

 kinds of flowering plants for winter 

 and spring. Many new gardens, big 

 and small, have been laid out during 

 the year, but they consist chiefly of a 

 lawn and a few palms; not much money 

 was spent for attractive beds, either in 

 the foliage or flowering line. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. Carrie Rehm reports a continu- 

 ously good business. Peter Noordam, 

 who has charge of her place, keeps it 

 always in fine shape and exceedingly 

 attractive. 



.Jacob Thomas is well satisfied with 

 his share of work. He disposes of all 

 he grows at fair prices. E. E. 



New Castle, Ind.— Wm. Dittman has 

 a nice crop of Beauties, with splendid 

 prospects for a Christmas cut. Charles 

 E. Holland is one of his growers.

 use, which clearly shows they have merit. Florists everywhere use and recommend them.
