The New Carnation, Cerise Queen 



READ WHAT THOSE THAT ARE GROWING IT HAVE TO SAY: 



III. 



Mi.'Unt Greenwood, 

 MR. FRED BREITMEYER, 

 Mt. Clemens, Mich., 

 Dear Sir:— In reply to yours for our experi- 

 ence of Cerise Queen, will say that under our 

 treatment the color, form and substance Is all 

 that can be dtsired; we have also found It a 

 \ ery free and continuous bloomer and have 

 never found a bursted calyx the whole season; 

 it is a little weak in the stem, but we lay 

 that to the poor place in which it is growing, 

 also we think one should be careful and not 

 overfeed it, as it does not need it, but pro- 

 duces a fine flower under ordinary care. 



Yours truly, C. W. JOHNSON. 



H. DALE, Cut Flower Grower, 

 Brampton. Ontario. 

 MESSRS. J. BREITMEYER & SONS, 

 Mt. Clemens, Mich.. 

 Gents: — The plants of Cerise Queen which you 

 sent me last spring for trial have done well; 

 the flower is of very pleasing color, stem me- 

 dium length. 15 to IS inches; habit of plant 

 good. I shall plant it again next year. 



Yours truly. H. DALE.

 JOHN BREITMEYER & SONS. 

 Mt. Clemens, Mich., 

 Gents:— We have a few idants of your No. 16, 

 Cerise Queen, on trial; the flower is medium 

 size, but fine color, in fact the only fault we 

 find is its dwarf habit; we should like to grow 

 some for side benches, as we believe it far 

 superior to Tidal Wave for that purpose, and 

 should make a commercial variety, but not 

 high priced. Please give us your best price 

 on lOCO rooted cuttings. 



Very truly yours.

GEO. A. RACKHAM. Wholesale Grower, 

 Detroit, Mich. 

 J. BREITMEYER & SONS, 

 Mt. Clemens, Mich., 

 Dear Sirs:— In reply to yours asking as to 

 my success with your No. 16, Cerise Queen, 

 will say that I consider it the ideal Carnation 

 of its type, very productive, continuous, stiff 

 stem, of medium length, and holds its color 

 longer on the plant than any Tidal Wave ever 

 grown. I shall plant a house of it, if I am 

 able to procure the stock. 



Yours. GEO. A. RACKHAM.
