HORTI CULTU RE 



December 26, 1908 



MAY DAY 



" We desire to call the attention of the trade to our seedling carnation May Day. 

 We have been growing this variety at our place for the past five seasons, and only 

 within the last few days have we decided to disseminate it. 



It is a deep satin pink, indescribably bright, and holds its color admirably under all 

 conditions. Stem i> good, calyx all one could desire. Its freedom is unexcelled by any 

 variety, it bring no unusual thing to be able to count from 20 o 25 flowering shoots on one plant at a time. Its habit of growth is perfect. 

 We have grown this variety in quantities for the past three years for iis flowers and find the demand for it much greater among our cus- 

 tomers than for the well known variety Enchantress. We attribute this to its exquisite shade of color and remarkable keeping qualities." 



PRICES: 100 $12.00; 1000 $100.00; 2500 $95.00 PER 1000; 5000 $90.00 PER 1000 

 To be disseminated early in 1909. 



We endorse Mr. Grave's description ; the variety has a splendid habit, a good stem, strong calyx, and we know of nothing freer, while 

 in color it is unapproachable, that soft, brilliant shade universally admired; beside this it is one of the finest keepers we have ever handled .
