The weather last week was quite cool and there were several frosty nights, which did considerable damage to tender herbaceous plants and seed- lings that had been set out early. Trade has been fair, but everything points to a big Memorial day business. Carnations are of good quality, but are somewhat scarce and therefore high in price. Darwin tulips are plentiful. Lilacs, peonies, Narcissus poeticus. swainsonas, forget-me-nots, outdoor val- ley, cornflowers and daisies are all abundant. A great many magnolia and galax wreaths were sold. Gfei*aniums, spiraeas, ramblers, forget-me-nots, dra- csenas and Boston ferns were sold in large quantities. Roses are somewhat high in price. Tliese were not in great demand, as they are not lasting for cemetery use. Harrisii lilies are plenti- ful once more, but callas are out of season. Sweet peas are excellent and the demand is strong. Outdoor valley is good this year. Baby gladioli, yel- low and white marguerites, bachelor's buttons, gardenias and orchids are all abundant. Since Memorial day was celebrated, in a way, on three days, Saturday, Sun- day and Monday, the volume of busi- ness done was greater than ever be- fore. Various Notes. May 27, Miss Edna Goehring enter- tained a number of the friends of Miss Edith Christy, who is to be married the latter part of June. The greenhouse and store forces of S. A. Anderson were well represented. Everyone had a won- derful time, and Miss Goehring made a most hospitable hostess. During the night of May 26, damage to the extent of $3,000 was done at Forest Lawn cemetery, when the plants in several hundred vases were partly destroyed by a heavy frost. Some of the plants can b^ used in refilling the urns, but the majority are an entire loss. The Wm. Scott Co., Newlands & Co. and S. A. Ander
