ImportanL Announcement 

 To Carnation Growers 



At the earnest solicitation of a large number of commercial and private grower*, 

 the Cottage Gardens Company has decided to disseminate this year tne two famous 

 carnations 



MRS. C. W. "WARD and ALMA "WARD 



Two varieties which are well known to all the leading growers of the country. Pour 

 years test in the New York market has demonstrated their popularity and good 

 staying qualities. For the past three years we have been growing from fifteen to 

 twenty-flve thousand of each, during which time they have always COMMANDB3D 

 THE HIGHEST iWARKET PRICES, and at no time has the supply been equal to 

 the demand. 



On the exhibition tabl^they have taken the HIGHEST HONORS, and we believe 

 it is safe to say these two camationB STAND WITHOtJT AN EaUAL. 



INVITATION 



We extend a cordial Invitation to ail those interested to visit our establishment, 

 where they will have an opportunity to see them growing and compare their good 

 points with other standard varieties grown under the same conditions. 



MRS. C. "W. "WARD 



MRS. C. W. WARD is a perfectly formed flower with full centre; color 

 deep pink several shades lighter than Lawson, deeper than Wlnsor; bavlng strong, 

 erect stems 24 to 36 Inches In length. A vigorous, healthy grower and has never 

 shown disease of any kind. 



A very early and free bloomer, producing flue flowers as early as September Ist, 

 which bring from twenty-flve to fifty per cent more than any other variety on the 

 market. 



The keeping qualities of this variety are remarkable. Several shipments of 

 binnnis sent to Europe reached their destinations in perfect condition, and wherever 

 exhlliited it has always been the last to show signs of wilting.
