Very well budded plants of gardenias should make great sellers at Easter, as they will be exclusive.

Much of the stock is shipped out of town and Mr. Mills takes great pride in the system of pack- ing and delivery, an arrangement with the express companies, a sort of i;ollow- np system, insuring great promptness in forwarding. THE ROBERT CRAIG CO. The Roht. Craig Co. has its extensive greenhouses filled with a great variety of Easter flowers. They do not do things in a small way here; all that is best in plants suitable for this great event are grown by the thousand. Lilies are al- ways handled in quantities and this sea- son's ci-op is as Avell done as any they have had for years. The multifloras, of which they tried a few, acted in much the same way as with others in this sec- tion and were far from satisfactory, but the Azores and the gigauteums have done splendidly and should find a ready sale. Mr. Craig thinks the giganteum the best lily for a late Easter and the best all around variety, with the possible excep- tion of the new Formosum, which he - thinks will prove to be a good one.
