Novelties in Carnations.

 each of which the most critical growers agree is a great advance over 

 older varieties of the same color: 



FLAMINGO. Finest brilliant scarlet yet Introduced. Large 

 flower, grand stem, early and continuous bloomer. 



MRS. M. A. PATTEN. Finest variegated, will supersede 

 Bradt, which it will out-bloom two to one. Better in stem and more 

 pleasing variegation. 



WHITE LAWSON. True sport of Lawson and like it In every 

 respect except that it is pure white. 



DAHEIM. Extra fine crimson variety, fully as large as Law- 

 son. Grand stem, brilliant color, ideal habit, early bloomer. Will 

 supersede other crimsons.
