Three Sterling Carnation Novelties 



Winsor, White Enchantress, and Helen M. Could 



There is nothing about any of these varieties that we wish to conceal; therefore, we cordially invite all carna- 

 tion growers to pay us a visit Come at any time. 



WINSOR-Winner of Lawson Silver Medal. 



This is sure to prove a winner. Nothing approaches it in color, which is a clear silvery pink — a shade 

 between Enchantress and Mrs. Thos. W. Lawson — and much more beautiful than either. In fact, it is just 

 the shade that we have all been trying to get. The color will make it sell in any market. The stem is just 

 right. The flowers are considerably larger than Lawson and much better shaped. As a grower it has every- 

 thing that can be desired. So far we have not seen any large-flowering variety quite so free as Winsor. 



WHI 



ENCHANTRESS. 



A pure white sport of Enchantress, at once the most popular and most profitable carnation grown today, 

 on account of its size and stem and freedom with which it blooms. White Enchantress is identical in 

 every respect but color. Those desiring quality as well as quantity will find it in White Enchantress. 



HELEN M. COULD. 



This is a beautiful variegated sport of Enchantress. The ground color is a lovely shade of clear pink, 

 the variegation carmine, making an exquisite combination of colors, besides being something distinctly new. 

 At a short distance the variegation does not show at all, the general effect being a beautiful shade of dark 

 pink. Growth, habit, size, and stem are the same as Enchantress. 



We have fine stocks, from which we can deliver healthy cuttings of Variegated Lawson, White 

 Lawson, Red Lawson, Enchantress, Mrs. M. A. Patten, Lady Bountiful, etc. 



Our Variegated Lawson is all that we claimed for it last season, and is giving the fullest satisfaction 

 everywhere — the best in the variegated class. Come and inspect our stock of new and standard sorts

 vice as published m 



these columns recent-

for trial. We reiterate here — if it succeeds with yon 

 as it does with us, it will prove the best white carnation 

 you ever grew. Despite the variety's apparaent 

 failure in several places, we strongly advise ad

 about its faults as developed in other places. We 

 doubt if these will develop in many places.
