Fashionable Flowers.


HOW THEY RANGE IN PRICE AND
POPULARITY.
Spring flowers, now in bloom in the
lighthouses, are the favorites this
month, although most of them are ex-
pensive. Thessselate spring blooms,
such as clover blossoms, buttercups
and daisies, are very scarce, but snow
drops, jonquils, crocuses and tulips Of
all kinds are plentiful and retail for
So and SO dozen.
The red and yellow mottled tulips,
called "poliparrots,' have a faint
woody fragrance and make handsome
centre-pieces for dinner-tables or pla-
ques and stars for ballroom decora-
tion. Scarlet tulips, in both the sin
gle and double varieties, are unusual
ly large this year and look like ILL
lies when the petals are turned back.
A few placed in blue or yellow jar
make an artistic bit Of coloring for
the drawing room or dinner table.
Yellow calondalas, which resemble
chrysanthemums, are among the early
spring flowers and are very popular
just now for corsage bouquets. A large
cluster costs from 81 to 81.
The Jacqueminot roses now grown
by florists are exceeding beautiful /,
being much larger and a deep
er crimson than those grown in the
early winter. The blooms cut for
hand bouquets have stems almost half
yard long, from which the thorns are
removed and the cluster fastened by
broad red crimson ribbon. The
leaves are left with the roses.
The new rose the "American Beau
ty," has become great favorite. 1t
is very large and a lovely pink in
color, the petals being particularly
heavy and closely set. A. perfect
specimen of this kind brings tho grow
er So and hand bouquet costs in the
neighborhood of $50.
At recent reception the doors
were ornamented with panels Of pink
roses and hyacinths, falling in long
loose garland. The effect was very
pretty.
Belts of pink and red roses are worn
with ball dresses. Garlands of roses
and other flowers bordering the decol.
lete bodice are also in fashion.
At debutante luncheon given last
week the favors we're pink and white
hyacinths formed into the monogram
of the hostesss and held by pink satin
ribbons embroidered with the date.
Pale pink crush roses are made in
to lamp and globe shades and used at
entertainments. The heat throws out
the perfume and makes large apart.
ment very fragrant, but the roses soon
wither.
Forget-me-nots are among the most
expensive of cut flowers at this season
and a very small cluster costs one OF
two dollars.
| Russian violets have found a new
use. Two or three of them are in
each inger-bowl at dinner parties and
lukewarm rose water is poured over
them before the bowls are passed.
