The New Carnation, Cerise Queen 



READ WHAT THOSE THAT ARE GROWING IT HAVE TO SAY: 



Mount Greenwood, 111. 

 MR. FRED BREITMEYER, 

 IMt. 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 desired; 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. .T. 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. 



DAILLEDOUZE BROS., 

 Flatbush. Brooklyn, N. Y. 

 JOHN BREITMEYER & SONS, 

 Mt. Clemens, Mich., 

 Gents:— We have a few plants 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, 



DAILLEDOUZE BROS.

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.
