Busi- ness, -while not lagging', had an added spurt by the call produced by St. Val- entine's day, and all the dealers en- joyed a fine trade. The condition of the flower supply made anything and everything acceptable as a Valentine flower. Some of the stores had a good- ly supply of violets, but these were not home grown, coming from near about cultivators, who just happened to get them in at the right time. There were all kinds of attractive novelties in the way of baskets, birch boxes, vases and pot plants of many kinds. Some biil- iiant combinations were made in the birch boxes with red cyclamens, yellow jonquils and Primula obconica, ?which proved to be very good sellers. Plants of all kinds that were in the market had a good sale. There were some nice lilies, both the Bermuda and calla. and some lily-of-the-valley, which combined with orchids were very popular for cor- sage bouquets. M. C.
