EDWARD F. NORBERG, 



Carnation Morning Glow Has Been Sold in 

 the Boston Market for 4 Years 



It is there considered a bread and butter Carnation.. The 

 Grower likes it, because it is free and has no tricks. The 

 Seller likes it, because it ships and keeps splendid — and 

 what is best of all — 



THE LADIES ADMIRE, AND ALWAYS BUY IT 



for its fresh, rosy color, just like morning glo'w. Morning 

 Glow is early, free, has a good habit, fine stem and for 

 blooming during the Summer, cannot be beat. While not 

 one of the largest Carnations, it is considered 



THE MOST PROFITABLE OF ALL 



Cuttings sold by the originator, $7 per 100, $65 per 1000
