. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 380 The American Florist. Sept. 4, LILIUM GIGANTEUM, 7-9-in. Our Motto:—The Best the Market Affords From New York or Chicago Cold Storage LILY OF THE VALLEY PIPS. Case of (A AF 100 Bulbs, QDilJU 300 Bulbs, $ 1200 " ;G0. NEW YORf 1000 Pips, $ 2600 " Case of 600 Pips CHAS. SCHWAKE & CO., Inc., 90-92 West Broadway, $ NEW YORK Hew York. AMPLE SUPPLY OF GOOD STOCK. Relating to the volume of business, there has been no perseptible change since our last writing. The supply of some one stock occasionally runs short for possibly half a day, and figuratively speaking, the price goes up. Some buyers will offer most any figure when they feel sure they cannot g-et what they want, and no matter how high the offer is, it is of no bene- fit to the wholesaler if he does not have the stock. We may repeat that ?a scarcity is very rare in this market. Referring to the quality of stock, no iault can be found for this time of year. In American Beauty roses there is a marked improvement in quality. Of other varieties, very creditable stock is arriving, and each week shows an improvement in the quality. While there are various kinds of aster stock on the market, and a surplus of all, some of it is remark- ably fine. There are good gladioli to be had, but as a whole, the quality of the stock is deteriorating. There is a perceptible increase in the supply of dahlias, but they will move very slow- ly while there is such a large supply of good asters on the market. Lilies and lily of the valley have been mov- ing fairly well and the prices for good lilies have improved. There is no sur- plus of cattlyea orchids and prices are steady. August 30.—There was a continuous downpour of rain throughout Sunday, August 29, which continues with slight intermissions today. There is an abund- ance of stock and the market is very quiet. NOTES.
