New Pink Carnation for I907 



Color — A peculiar shade of Invely pink, with a faint 

 yellowish cast; several sh ides lighter than the Lawson. 

 Unlike most Pinks, the brighest sun does not injure the 

 color. Size — 3 to 4 inches in diameter when estab- 

 lished. Odor— Pleasing, but not strong. Stems — 

 Invariably strong, but always gracefu , ranging from 

 12 to 30 inches during the season. Habit, etc.— A very 

 quick, activegrower, making specimen |. lants in a short 

 time, even from late cuttings. On account of its rapid 

 growth, requi es supporting verv soon alter benching. 

 Gets away rapidly, blooms early and gives long stems 

 ri 'ht from the start. Productiveness -Podieious is 

 the best word we know of to use here. It is the most 

 incessant bloomer early ^ nd late, we have ever grown. 

 Stuck limited. Delivery Januaiy 5ih to IQth and later.
