SPRING PLANT TEADK OPENS BRISKLY.— STOCKS AHE LARGE—JOTTINGS OF A VISIT TO THE GROWERS AND DEALERS. Notwithstanding the tardy spring, things are moving along brisklv and from all indications the florists will have a busy time ot it from now on. Bedding stock seems to be in abundance, although the demand bids fair not only to keep pace with the supply, but to exhaust it before the season is over. At W. C. Rockwell's things, as usual, show up in fine condition. His carnations proved money makers all through the season and at the present writing the crop is good. His roses and violets were likewise up to the standard. Mr. Rockwell will make several changes and alterations about his establishment; among other things, a new boiler of improved pattern and large capacity will replace the old one. Geo. L. Graham is well pleased with the result of this season's trade. Both roses and carnations look healthy and vigor- ous, with an abundance of buds and the supply barely keeps up with the demand. His bedding stock has never looked finer. Mr. Graham contemplates adding a good sized carnation house to his plant. G. R.
