HANNAH HOBART 



The Pride of 

 California ■»■ 



The grand Prize Winner in competition with the latest and very 

 best products in Carnations, East or West, for the last eight years. 



Mr. John A. Maimer, of Cle Klum, Washington, wrote, after his visit to our nurseries in January, 1902, an article which appeared in the 

 American Florist of February 15, as follows: 



"The Hannah Hobart is really a remarkable flower, never le*^-; than four inches, and frequently four and one-half inches across. In 

 color it is a shade deeper than Lawson, but the petal arrangement is quite ditten-nt ; in this respect it most resembles the old Jubilee, but of 

 course the color is different. I saw two large houses of it at SiLvn ' ,,1 i.- 1 1,1 is one long to be remembered; hundreds of blooms and 

 not a poor one in the lot, and everyone the exact counterpart of il I calyxes, but every dower supported on a twenty-four inch 



stem, and standing up like soldiers. There is certainly no carnaii 1 r ' ;: ■, in equal it." 



The above is a truthful statemf^nt of facts by a very competciu ,[ n. n, u ii needing verification, the simple assertion that the flowers 

 of this magnificent varietv h,ive been sold wholesale as high as;:: , j-i I- < 11 ,nul none less than Ji.oo per dozen, up to date, should be 



^ ''"fhe?onTJan"lmJ'u:^ " "'""^'' I'a^s seen the plants in flower is " When wlllthe Hannah Hobatt be for sale?" This 



led us at last to the o. nte the same next year, and we are ready to book orders from now on for delivery beginning
