Improved weather conditions liave increased the su])ply of stock consider- ably and helped business. St. Valen- tine's day found the retailers with a fair supply of violets, roses, orchids and indoor carnations, all of Avliich were needed for this day. Daffodils are still in sliort supply, but enough of them are shown to give tlie stores a spring-like appearance. Freesias help out consid- erably and are used in conjunction with sweet peas. Peach blossoms, in consid- erable variety, and acacias, are still at- tractive and in good demand. Business with the wholesalers was only limited by the supply of stock. Had there been more flowers, there would have been more business. A number of daffodils have been shipped in from the north, but they show to poor advantage when seen together with the local-grown flow- ers. Orchids and gardenias from San Francisco, on the other hand, have been excellent and helped out the local short- age. Bulbous stock in pots and ])ans moves well at good prices, but cyclamens are slow in selling now. Among greens, jilumosus is still poor and much of it sliows the effect of frost. Various Notes. T. II. Wright, of Wright's Flower Shop, is suffering from a severe cold, but is sticking to business. At the store ej-eryoue was busy for St. Valentine's day. Max Teifoloosi, of the Pine street nursery, of Inglewood, is sending in some fine statice in variety, noticeably Stat ice Suworowii. The frost cut off a good many flowers, but he has a fine stock of young plants. At the Artesia nursery of Tassano Bros, the early single and double peaches are making a grand show and the place is in first-class order. Vj. J. Reynolds has left Bakersfield and returned to Los Angeles, after a visit to San Diego. Some extra fine daffodils and freesias wore noted at the store of S. Murata & Co., where local business is exceptionally good. W. Armaco
